This one is not on Black Gigaros, 2014 Monte @ 2013 Frankfurt Show.

(LHD & has rear Discs)

Nope ur right it's on Trinity's I think when u look at the shadows on the wheels it gives the impression that they have the Gigaro's angled spokes.....not fussy on the painted grill top.......also a DSG gear box...????

I believe I will be able to sort this out some time next week, will post detailed pics!

Sure whatever you say. Mods crusader passing by people, attention...

If only I understood what that means?

You can't expect people to pay too much attention replying to you Brim, as long as you keep that avatar pic up.

 

Any news...??

There has been some news today actually. Apparently because the Fabia is coming to the end of the current model, there is in fact a shortage of Trinity wheels and therefore the brand (Skoda) have changed the spec and Montes will now come with the black Gigaros from the line. This was in an email from the head of business at the dealership I purchased the car from. They have this information after speaking directly to Skoda and this was confirmed by them. It would be interesting to see if anyone else on here has one on order or is due to collect one in the near future to see what wheels are on it mind. I don't feel so much like I'm being ripped off anymore after seeing that email, I must admit.

Thanks

EEMMMMM.!!!!

There had to be a logical answer to something that fundamental

So how do you explain this then: -

They're probably already built, parked up in a field somewhere. When I ordered mine in January, I was told I wasn't able to order a Tech as they weren't producing them anymore. So these ones still available have already been produced. Build date on my car was 18 Feb

Glad you got it sorted, explanation seems fair enough knowing they'll all come with Gigaros.

Enjoy your Monte when it comes, we all do.

Thanks again mate, can't wait!

That was close for us then as ours was registered on the 31/1/2014 and had only been in the UK for a week (ours was also built to order).......phew that was close

I'm not liking the colour coded grill grill though

Agreed, not a good look at all..... :|  

Maybe on a non Monte. So whole car is colour coded?

 

I think the black grill helps the Monte stand out

Here's the new Octavia Scout with the black moulding treatment, the Monte above just looks like the rest of the new Skoda range with the upper grille colour coded.

Re DSG, the monte carlo is available with DSG in some markets. I wonder if the last of the VRS will get the colour coded top of the grill.
