Yellow vrs owners . . Pictures!

[javi20xe]

As I now work for the vag group I am debating on chopping in my black vrs for an 07 yellow one. Mainly because it's done 29k while mine is on 96k, I can get a very good price on it!

Anyone with yellow vrs's or just pictures they have, please post up

[Craig Lovelock]

Mines standard atm! :'(

Heres a chop i did for it though

[XLBaconDoubleCheese]

Sounds like a no brainer! I'd love a yellow one, does it have and options

tbh it is a pretty pish colour....

rear end needs polished every week as it stains with the soot as the paint isnt laquered....

after a polish looks the same (dull)

plus driving a yellow car does wear off after a while... after all 80% of male yellow car drivers are gay?

C'mon chaps they are not that rare are they!

I have a cupra splitter and decat waiting here. I did really want an SE but main attraction was leather seats, so would also have to budget to get that done.

Matt I think it comes with xenons but unlike my current has traction control instead of ESP :(

I think the must do's if I got a yellow would be coilovers-tints-lcr splitter- Standard wheels in graphite

[Guest BigJase88]

i just uploaded about 300 pics

[javi20xe]

Paint isn't laquered? Where did you get that from!

I am well aware the colour loves to fade, but not really much of an issues. I am more concerned the near impossible colour matching.

Hmm, I prefer to think different, not gay, your yellow is stunning big jase, dunno how you can bad mouth your own car so much

I know I would get a proper earful from my non car mates!

Yellow seats frs seem to be all the rave!

nah its a flat paint... the early one is (Lemon Yellow)

there is no laquer on the paint.... well i don't think there is... if you polish it too much the yellow comes off and shows the primer underneath... i did this on 2 of my 4 door handles

tbh i bought the car for the mods and coped with the colour.

i've also had a black magic vrs, lovely colour although it only stays nice for 5 mins

[R1chard]

I personally think yellow vrs's look the tits

I've even thought about buying one and swapping all the parts off mine onto it but I doubt I will.

[javi20xe]

Really?! Are you sure you didn't just polish so hard you burnt through the laquer?

No vag car is 2k paint anymore except commercial vehicles. Vag cars do have a very soft laquer?

I find black abit boring now. Unless I had some sort of s-variation Audi

Anyone have any other pics? They are really not too common are they :(

[Guest BigJase88]

pretty sure it doesn't have laquer could be wrong though

btw theres two yellows the early lemon yellow and the sprint yellow... mines was the duller lemon yellow

[Craig Lovelock]

I personally only wanted the yellow when buying.

Simply because it stands out. Only seen 1 other yellow vrs in my city!

Dealerships said they hadnt had any for 2 years.

So i was happy

My front and back bumper are quite faded i must say, however it will be machine polished during summer to see what it comes out like.

I have the 54 plate, IIRC that is still lemon yellow.

I do find the back gets crazily dirty mind!

Heres one:

Can see the paint fade on front bumper :(

As jase said, there are two yellows. The early one like his, which is "lemon yellow" and the one your looking at which will be "sprint yellow", much brighter. I really like the yellow`s and not seen any looking too bad.

if you polish it too much the yellow comes off and shows the primer underneath... i did this on 2 of my 4 door handles

The older cars didnt have colour coded handles so was prob a issue with the pain job on them more than the paint job on the car.

I`m pretty sure i read ages as, the newer yellow colour was more rare than the SE. And just going by how many i see, i`d say that was true tbh. I personally would rather the xenons over esp

ahh lol. Bit worrying then :S

I bought a standard yellow vrs back in august... wasn't really a choice, I wasn't all to bothered about the colour just wanted the car and it was the only one i could find!!!!

Got some pics after I gave it a quick wash from back then, sadly its now looking mucky due to the amount of crap being chucked onto the road at the mo and weekly washing lasts literally one journey till its covered again... It's a very late 56 registered (almost 07) , so one of the last few and the later sprint yellow paint on it.

In summary - summer time means lots of dead insects all over, winter time it gets caked in muck everytime you venture out. It needs loads of TLC but i wouldn't have it any other way!!!

And yes I have removed the door guard protector it was on when i picked up the car...

If you're gunna go Yellow go LEMON Yellow NOT Sprint as it just a bit if you get me?

[Craig Lovelock]

I disagree.

I think if your going to go yellow in the first place, go all out.

I couldnt find a sprint one when looking.

But found the lemons still rather nice

Anyone have a picture of the 2 next to eache other?

[Guest BigJase88]

got to say the sprint yellow is foul... looks almost radioactive / green LOL

[StevenVrs]

I think sprint yellow is the best yellow

my gf has a lemon yellow one aswell i dont have any pics of the two of them together but im sure she does

[Tigger_1979]

I have a few of mine on the following link:

[Craig Lovelock]

Thought i was going to be the first non Borbet A's :(

Looks hot though. 15s?

[StevenVrs]

the borbets are 16s but the tyres dont do alot for them still need to get a bit of stretch on

[Soot1e]

Going from Black to Yellow? Are you crazy? They are not as fast as Black Magic, don'yt you know.
