My new Superb Sportline 150 DSG. Its a cracking looking car with the silver and black looking great together. Its got a few options on it, Front Sensors, Heated Seats, Electric boot, Spare Wheel. Still getting to grips with all the settings but loving it. 

 

Lovely car. Are they the vega 19"? In black?

[mulders]

I think they are anthracite 19" vega but really stand out against the silver

Very nice. That colour looks much better than it does on the website video. It would be nice to see some once you have it out in the real world please. What do you think to the match between the Cappucino Beige exterior and the beige interior, does it go as well as you hoped?

 

I was affraid of the color, cause couldn't see one in real life. Was very pleasantly surprised, color looks fantastic in life. It shines in the sun and looks elegant on a cloudy day. Unortunately I have no other pic than this one with my spoiling figure in front so...

 

Combo with beige interior is for me bingo. Just right not to scream and enough difference to look really good.

 

 

This is how it looks in the setting sun and a bit of a shadow. Different but to me very nice.

Thanks! I debated it in grey as they had one in the showroom and test drove one in dragon yellow but glad I went with silver. Think it suits the sport line perfectly.

What wheels are they? I asked the Skoda Dealer about ordering that type of wheel and told I couldn't order them

The wheels are Black 19" Supernova alloys from the Skoda UK accessory catalogue. You can not order them on a new car, but you can order them additional to the car, switch them over then sell the other wheels.

 

That is what i had to do. I did it because i thought non-black wheels on the Sportline was a mistake by Skoda. I know some like the Sportline wheels but with all the chrome blacked out i wanted black wheels and was not willing to go down to 18" wheels. So these or a non skoda wheel were my only option.

My Pacific blue Se technology arrived this morning. I just want the rain to go away now so i can clay it and reseal and wax it!

 

I'll get some more photos later

My car also arrived this morning. Not the best pic but after 3 hours detailing it the sun decided not to come out for my photo. It's a L&K 2.0 tdi 150 dsg in Quartz Grey. Only driven it 12 miles so far so need to give it a good run to really appreciate it.

Looks great. Not even driven mine yet :( i need a full day of good weather so i can get cracking at making it shiny!

Pre-wash: Serious Performance Citrus

Wash: Bilt Hamber Auto Wash by 2bm
Dried: Sonus waffle weave towel

All door shuts wiped down etc...

All set for claying, sealing and waxing tomorrow.....Wife permitting.

[markytop]

Posted some of these pics in a separate thread when I collected the car a couple of weeks ago, but thought I would add them in here also - especially as there seems to be love for silver cars again  (Mulders Sportline estate looks great with the black trim)

Spec is L&K 280 with black leather interior with 19in Phoenix anthracite alloys.

Hi, do you think it is necessary or will make any difference claying a new car? Only ask because I decided not to do mine.

[AandOsDad]

Just got my SLI number but not sure if I can track order anywhere.  Anyone use the www.trackmyskoda.co.uk  website? Is there an official skoda UK tracking site?

My week old SE Technology.

Love that they changed the default wheels.

 

Hey.  Just ordered one the same but the SEL Exec. Love the pegasus alloys but still don't know if they are diamond cut. Are they? 

[Silverfox73]

picked mine up at 3 yesterday (Saturday). so i could only get a bit of a crappy picture from a really nice Video the salesman sent me about an hour before I picked it up. so, some proper pictures tomorrow, weather permitting. and a surprise too.

It completely depends upon what you're doing after it. For me i asked the dealer not to prep the car as i wanted to apply my own coatings etc.... They appear to have listened however it still seems to have transit wax of some sort on it. 

The only way to really strip it back to basics is by claying.

 

I'm planning to clay then apply 2 coats of chemical guys blacklight then top it off with 1 coat of ODK SiNuba wax.

Lava Blue can get a real purple colour to it when the sun gets low in the sky. It's hard to catch.

I decided not to clay mine. Used korrosol and bilt hamber cleansing fluid and it was a smooth as silk ready for the lsp (double speed wax)

I went ahead and clayed mine, although it is going to need some more correction than just applying blacklight and wax.

 

Well it's rather swirly, ive not done any full correction just yet as I've not had the time.

Only managed to get the drivers side done before it got too warm.

Clayed: Slim's fine clay & dodo clay lube
Sealed: 2 coats of chemical guys blacklight by DA
Wax: ODK SiNuba

Looks fantastic. So what product removed the swirls? Black light or have you polished it with a rotary?

I applied blacklight with a da so did one coat as i would for swirl removal then a 2nd coat as directed. There are still some swirls in it but until i have more time to do a full correction they will have to remain.

Just googled. Didn't realise what a da was :-). Wish I could do that on mine. Fabulous shine.
