Sweet as Spiceman, very neat ride.

Thats not 1.6TDI Elegance

The 1.6tdi is no more, I was just looking for metal grey, xenons and hawk wheels; but couldn't have as an elegance. Then the dealer had a VRS in metal grey and hey presto; the elegance was a nice car, but after a few days of driving the VRS oh boy! sweet handling and a decent ride. I use a farm lane daily and I was dreading the ride, but the rear suspension makes it better than elegance, so impressed.

Took a picture today now the car is very very clean (well until I drive it later on anyway, I do hate the winter months)

That's one beautiful shine!

Picked up mine here on Monday in Australia! Couldn't be happier! RS Combi, Tech Pack, Glass Roof, Auto boot, every option except leather.

I'm a photographer for a living yet only have taken iPhone photos!

Also, there is a new "Comfort" pack that includes the folding mirrors, electric seats and heated seats (meaning leather) as an option for week 42 as MY15 RS's! Am not impressed with the folding mirror option as I couldn't get mine with them in the MY15 build (think the flat bottom steering wheel update which I have). So seems there is a 3rd update for Australia.

Original RS: no flat bottom steering wheel, no tech pack (adaptive cruise) no RS Mode button.

Updated MY15 RS: above details are standard now, optional Tech Pack with Adaptive Cruise, standard Flat bottom steering wheel and RS mode button, NO reverse camera.

Updated MY15 RS (built after week 42 - with delivery from Jan/Feb or March 2015: Reverse Camera, Comfort Pack with folding Mirrors, Electric heater leather seats, Reverse camera...

Metal grey is quite a stately color. Looks very Audi like.

So it’s finally arrived.  Ordered with the dealer at the end of August with an expected delivery of Mid December.  Then got a build week of 41. Took delivery on the 5^th November.  TSI Vrs with crew protect, Columbus, tow bar prep, leather, kessy and Gemini alloys.  Very happy so far.

Leeds branch of Keiths.  The original sales guy left a few weeks after the order was placed but I got a call from the chap that took over (not sure if I can name on here?) and he was superb.  Regular updates and accommodated all of my requests.

I do like the Pictoris wheels.  Very easy to keep clean  What tyres do they fit to them these days?

does it have sunglass holder, when the car has panoramic sunroof?

No.

And the area where the sunroof opener is scratchable which sucks... Already have some nail marks on the RS version. Above is the beige one... I have the dark interior.

Not sure the Xtremes are available any more. Certainly weren't a month or so back when others on the forum tried to order them. [emoji17]

You can get them as part of the black pack I believe.

Mine is the sister of the car above!

Yeah, they had run out....and there is no way the domestic Boss would sign off on the money anyway. I notice that the black package is greyed out on the skoda config anyway.
