Has anybody had a rallye green VRS delived yet? If so, any pics?

Would have loved to have ordered one but I read somewhere something along the lines of "when you come to sell in five years, how many buyers will think your choice of colour is great"?

 

Go for green and it's yours for life.

I think the green looks pretty smart - saw an estate on the road ages ago and it stood out for all the right reasons. Im sure someone on here has ordered green?

I think that the green looks wonderful.  If I'd ordered a VRS, I'd have ordered a green one.

Green was the wife's choice. I preffered the yellow but ive got a feeling they fade quite quick. Still havent seen a mkiii in green yet

I've seen one, briefly, on the streets of Grimsby; looked mighty fine!

Looks a bit "too green" for me. Drfiving one would feel a little like wearing a mankini to Tesco.

My rallye green hatch is still unconfirmed build week 48.

And I would never wear a mankini to Tesco.

LIDL on the other hand....

Lifes too short to worry about resale values! :p

Something about that car doesnt look quite right, cant put my finger on it though?

Oh!  That IS green!

Too deeper shade of Green? It looks like its been through Photoshop.

Think that's more the camera phone struggling with the green. Needs anthracite wheels, black grille. Looks epic. but I copped out and went for race blue which I was told would be the most common colour, but I've yet to see one. Only white ones I've seen on the street so far. Think the fabia vrs in green looked great too.

I think that the green on the picture is a bit too rich & deep, whilst in reality it's a bit brighter & lighter.

As I've said before I would have liked to have had the green, but I didn't know if I could have lived with it and was thinking about the future residuals.

Green with black pack would look great. Missus vetoed green or yellow however.

I've got a hatch on order in green, scheduled for a week 45 build.  Fingers crossed!

mY mk2is rally green,i dont think the picture is too far out,because it shades with the light,its lighter and brighter in bright sunlight,eitherway its a stunning colour,but i think it suits the hatch better,so now i have an estate on order iv gone for meteor grey,i think raceblue has had its day and should have been changed,case of been there done that in 07 for me,just my opinion,not out to cause offence to raceblue owners,

I would have liked to have had Storm Blue (a nice deep blue), which is unassuming and discrete, however it's not available for vRS.

Check this Czech site out - pictures from every angle and absolutely awesome-looking with black pack and anthracite alloys imho.
