If I was to go for a brand new one again my order of colour preference would be:

Yellow

White

Red

Anthracite

Blue

Black

Get a yellow one!

It just shows we all like the same car but colour is so subjective everybody sees things differently. Which is a good thing

Any colour but white is OK , if you get white you will end up forever polishing the dead bugs of the front end .

Completely wrong.

Had a black car prior to this.

Nightmare to keep.

Look at it this way.

If you drive your car it gets dirty.

if you love your car you will clean it.

There is no difference in getting flies off a white car than any other color.

The beauty about the white is it is so easy to see where the dirt is so make washing so much easier.

I went for Race Blue. I think Candy White looks great, but there's no way I'd get away with having to clean it at least once a week to keep it looking great. Very very happy with my colour, (but most importantly car) choice.

white is an epic colour but on a vrs its would be my second choice to the blue. if i was getting a white one cheaper than a blue i would have no problems taking a white one .

thats my thinking on it too saying as white isnt a real colour makes me think they havent painted the car I have owned 2 or 3 white cars and I loved them when clean but 1.3 meters later HATED THEM!

BLACK MAGIC PEARL is fantastic

I originally ordered it in Red a few weeks ago, then spotted a few white ones and the usual Blue (still looks great), also forgot to mention I'm in my mid twenty's so lots of people would ask why I'm driving a skoda in the first place (their loss), so think it should have a brighter sportier colour. The least common colour on the VRS around here is Silver, Unless they have blue light in the grill!

What colour have you gone for then

What colour have you gone for then

Blue.. I can still change it but don't to be too indecisive! and you go to the bottom of the build list if you change after a certain date (so they say). At the end of the day It looks good in white and blue. Blue gets a lot of compliment. I agree its the common colour, but for a reason I think. The grills getting colour matched too, soo It'll look a little different from the current one.

I went for blue simply because it was on 3 week delivery. I.e sitting in a german port waiting to ship. Was initially thinking White but SWMBO thought otherwise. Like she'll ever drive it!

14 days until it arrives. Just been out giving the old PD140 a good polish. Partl to get back in practise but mainly because I'd be too embarrassed to trade it in looking dirty.

What spec are you getting?

Yellow

White

Red

Anthracite

Blue

Black

If you choose the Yellow one, I'd say you need therapy.

As mentioned above, black is by far the worst colour to keep clean, moving from a black car to a white one I speak from experience. Black looks the nuts when clean but will get spoilt on your first drive. If you wash, seal and wax a white car the white paint will shine through for ages, masking everday dirt. It will have to get quite dirty before it actually looks dirty if you know what I mean.

I'm still to be convinced that white suits the VRS though, looks kinda awkward to me. That's just me though.

Sorry I totally disagree.

When you compare the Red to Black, Anthracite or Blue, it looks cheap, it simply doesn't ooze the class that the other three have.

Oh I see where you coming from

Like the look of the vRS oozes class

What spec are you getting?

Manual, 2.0 TDI CR, Xenons, rear parking sensors, Auto dim mirror + auto lights, full size spare, standard half leather, in RACE BLUE for today anyway! . I have Columbus sat nav in the current one and for the money I'm not that impressed even after I acquired the update CD for 6 digit post codes. I can get a top end Garmin for £250 with £1000+ change in my wallet to spend on other things like tints, remap and colour coded grill. I'm changing to diesel as well, having driven both I cant see a huge difference on an fast A-B journey between the new CR engine and my current TFSI other than better MPG on long motorway runs. I probably keep this one a while too...

Nah..my next one will either be Anthracite or Yellow.. There's only one other yellow one in my area but the race blues are becoming more common which is not good when I've got one myself.

Well done that man , at last another convert

That is such a hard question, i'm bias as I collected my shiny new race blue one this time y'day. However I was in your boat 5 months ago. When I was at the dealers they had a white waiting to be collected & I was happy I chose blue, just has the edge for me.

I like that the white one looks great with dark wheels though. I t's a tough one. You need to flip a coin mate & grit your teeth. You wont be dissapointed either way i'm sure.

White is a bad colour to see where the polish/wax/sealant is when cleaning. White stands out and yes is a fad fashion colour. Saw an anthracite one yesterday and it looks awesome. Blue is common. White is cheaper! I've never seen a black one or yellow one.

Mine is White and I love it except for cleaning bloody flies off it

White looks great, even when dirty....when it is dirty you can see where the dirt is and not touch the car there, unlike other colours which 'hide' the dirt. I've had other colours that hide the dirt well, but I was always getting dirty touching them as I didn't know they were dirty....

There's a problem with the white one. You can't find or see it in the snow.
