Blue, big wheels and lowered looks ace!! Leasing so no extras but if I was buying the 19s would be on my list!  Thanks for the pics of the black, not sure on the flaps though - not brave enough for green but it does look nice! Thanks all

@Skodanorman - you mention what the black pack gives you yet you have a sliver grill - the mirrors would be black anyhoo - what about the rails - are yours aftermarket black?

Mines White with Red Stiching,  White is the New Yellow. Race Blue is nice but a very common colour and is no longer exclusive to the Vrs

 

Must Admit I do like the Meteor Gray.  

I went with quartz grey metallic and the red stitching, I had a good long think about the stitching but just felt that the grey wasn't VRS enough, the red adds to that sporty feel , I have only ordered in the last 2 weeks so in for a long wait, I had also considered the meteor grey but couldn't see one in the flesh in Ireland so chickened out. Virtually every VRS here is race blue so I wanted something a little different and wasn't allowed get white, shmbo has an allergy to white it would appear.

I have candy white, with the red stitching interior, but it was an ex demo so not my particular choice. I'd personally have gone for rallye green with silver stitching.

 

I find the red stitching a bit "1980's MG" really. Surprised it's not got red seatbelts too...

I have Rio red metallic estate vrs with red stitching [emoji106]

Black Magic with the Silver Roof rails and chrome window surrounds!!

Plus the Red Stitching matches the Red Calipers

I went with Race Blue for my 1.2 SE Hatch, sorry vRS peoples!

...and chrome window surrounds!!

 

That an option??  Is black window surrounds the norm?

 

And this car confuses me (skodanorman) - silver grill but black rails - is that because you specced the pano roof?  And has black windows surrounds is that the default for vrs?

 

 

Before i joined the forum i just ordered a black one, now im getting all sorts of questions!!

Black.... Everywhere... and the red stitching / detailing...

Clay barred too? Looks silky smooth!  Nice

Black roof rails and window surrounds are standard on vrs, the black pack adds black wing mirrors and grille surround - I believe Norman doesn't have the black pack hence standard chrome grille but obviously everything else is black anyway. If you haven't ordered black pack yours should look the same.

Ps red boot nets with black car and red stitching works well...

Thanks exeterj so instead of speccing up the black pack i could just get the £25 quick black grill

In theory yes as Allan has shown earlier and will give the look of the black pack, only difference would be roof rails would be black plastic but not gloss painted black which is what black pack gives. Silver rails are an option on vrs but not combined with black pack.

ahhh right get it now - Thanks

Go with your gut..... I didn't and regret it everyday (got Candy White instead of Rally Green) :(

Why pay extra when you can get the matching colour to go with the red stiching? (Corrida Red!)

I would have loved Rally Green, but I fear that would have lasted a week, reminds me of a pair of red Puma Speedcats I bought once got bored with them after a couple of wears

Id fear Green could become very hard to trade in/sell on.

I didn't get black pack - I couldn't justify the cost. As you say, because I ordered a black car my mirrors were already black so the black pack would have given me the black grille and painted black roof bars, instead of my chrome grille and black plastic roof bars.

Thats another example of the ridiculous pricing differences between jurisdictions, the black pack is a zero cost option in Ireland on the VRS

Id fear Green could become very hard to trade in/sell on.

 

Will also bring you to the attention of our guardians of the peace as you'd be too hard to ignore.
