Rapid Spaceback Black Edition

[Dr Zoidberg]

 

Glass roof = fixed and doesn't open at all - Found on, err, umm, err....... nothing.

 

Nissan Qashqai. You need to go up to the XTrail to get one that opens

Dr Z, I meant Skoda range. I know about the QQ, my old dears got one  :peek:

[Dr Zoidberg]

I really liked the QQ and would probably have bought one if the roof opened.

Sorted :P

So why don't they say on their website it has the glass roof? Surely that's a massive selling point? It's the only reason I would consider a spaceback over the standard rapid.

I'm getting the black edition for the full glass roof. plus its got the bigger diamond cut alloys and sat nav as standard. I was talking more money for an SE with same spec due to upgrades. plus I think it looks better.

This is what it looks like with the glass boot

 

 

 

And looking through the glass roof

 

 

And black Ray wheels

 

 

[Dr Zoidberg]

Good looking car, that.

[samTSI]

Can't wait to get mine in black.

[Elegance75]

No probs mate.

Sorry TP, forgot about the lesser spotted Roomster

Do you have any pictures of the black edition spaceback??

Sorry, only had a white one here, got a black Roomster though

Would that rapid been moon white metallic??

Going back to the specs, do the dealers not get a spec sheet on the car (Black Edition)

Cheers

This is my black edition from behind.

I posted the whole Black Edition range in another thread - here This was taken straight from the internal system and lists the additional spec over an SE. Granted it doesn't state Glass/Fixed Pano Roof BUT it does state Style Pack which includes the roof. Some people ehh  :think: 

 

Yes the white one would be Moon, and rather nice indeed it was   

[Elegance75]

So is it now based on the SE Tech spec??

Do you have any pictures of the white one??

I am assuming it doesnt come with the auto lights and wipers??

Sorry for all the questions!!!

[LeeHarrison]

Sorry, no pics, customer is happily driving around in it now. Yes, it is SE Tech spec and nope, no auto lights or wipers

So effectively then your paying an additional £345 RRP, to have Savio instead of Camelot alloys and Black Edition in the V5C in place of SE Sport (with optional metallic paint) :wonder:

 

Think I'd go for the Sport and have a greater choice of metallic colours (race blue or rallye green :yes:  ), or save a further £525 and get a no cost colour.

This may seem a bit extreme but does anyone think Skoda could get in trouble with trading standards by claiming these black editions are limited when in most cases they are simply existing spec vehicles in black with say nav?

[The Plumber]

Think it differs enough to warrant it's place but if it's as suggested an up spec SE, then does it have climate control which is now standard on the SE Sport (along with all the other features of the Black Edition bar metallic paint and Savio pattern rims). If not then its even more overpriced then I suggested earlier.

Still cant defo be sure it has a pan roof though

Would be nice to see the other one in Dunferline in white

[skoda1982]

Yes it does you can not have the glass tailgate without panoramic roof

Not sure I'd want to pay that much but it looks quite good.

 

I'd still like to get an arm rest for mine, I'd probably win the lottery before Skoda UK decide to operate an accessories sale business properly though. :(

The Black Edition appears to be based on the SE as was, with added Sportpack, Nav, Metallic paint and Savio alloys in place of Camelot, which these photos confirm.

 

So very similar to the new SE Sport trim but missing climate control, chrome effect vent surrounds, TPM and passenger seat height adjuster if the latest brochure is to be believed.

 

So very overpriced in comparison to an SE Sport.
