After only 8 days from order to pick up (the car was for sale in the dealership as the intended owner had to cancel the purchase due to splitting with his mrs) I finally have my diesel manual vRS at home.

 

This being the first brand new car me or the other half have owned, It was a real experience which I wont ever forget. We traded in our 1.2 petrol 09 corsa which despite my constant complaints of it being under powered, I was quite sad to see go.

 

Got to the dealership for 09:30am and left at around 10:20am having finished off all the paper work and run through. What really made a difference to me was the fact the dealer had put a cover on the car to whip off after the paper work to give the TA DAAAAAAAAAA type moment. Even though we had seen the car the week prior I could not stop smiling, this was awesome! After a quick run through some of the important functions the dealer handed over to us.

 

Managed to put on 70 miles or so today showing family the car. Even in such short mileage I am already in love with the car. The power is awesome, the gear box is very smooth and the car is so comfortable.

 

Id say even though the diesel is down on power from the petrol, I cant say I'm wanting any more power than it has. It is just awesome.

 

Here are a few pictures I've taken. Cant wait to get up tomorrow and go for another drive.

 

 

 

 

Lovely.

Nice! Looking forward to picking up my red estate after almost 27 weeks.

It looks great. Like the person in the second photo, i'd give it two thumbs up. Enjoy.

Am I the only one that hasn't gone for the black pack?!  I would love to see acorrida red Vrs hatch without it BEFORE I collect mine!

 

Nice car btw, and lucky you getting one so quick!

I love the VRSs striking but understated looks - so smart in red. Enjoy!

Very nice - is that the standard sunset glass option?

 

Looks darker than i've seen before.

Thanks.

Not what the sunset glass is but if you're referring to the rear windows which are tinted that's what ever the option is from skoda (not sure if it's under

The black pack or as well as).
