Well I didn't but my Dad just got this...

Race Blue Octy vRS Estate

Sat Nav, jumbo box, dual zone climate, roof and a few other opitions I'll need to check (unfortunatley no 18" wheels or cruise or xenons :thumbdwn: )

More pics and road test to follow. Gave it a quick drive but it was end of rush hour and wet and dark. Did go fairly well though especially considering it had about 50miles on it

I love the colour, was taking the micky before it arrived saying it looked like dynamic blue but it really does look the business!

Does miss a few features of the 2.0Tdi DSG elegance he had before, such as multi function steering wheel and elec seats but I'm sure he'll survive!

Pukka Motor!:orb_cool_ ...in what may turn out to be the most popular colour!:tipspecs: ..time will tell!

...... just got a slight twinge of jealousy for a second there! Very nice

Yup very nice, I saw a vRS Combi for the first time @ Geneva - I thought it looked fantastic especially in race blue

...... just got a slight twinge of jealousy for a second there! Very nice

Don't be too jealous, the car is CR@P! :eek:

Its slow, peaky, unrefined, common, ugly, sounds like a diesel, stinks of new car with part leather interior, (yuk), with bad brakes...........

Only joking, its FANTASTIC, be jealous! :D :D Its none of the above!

Just a few more pics (I just realised that a couple look like is scrathed but think its just dirt!)

Ok car is fantastic and goes very well - its just so smooth.

Only problem is no front mats as they were left hand drive and the right hand ones are on back order - can anyone confirm this?

I was looking to update this thread as my Dad's just got a new car last month and realised I did't get round to putting up a pic of the race blue vRS he had getting on for 2.5years ago.

Anyway, several cars later and he's gone back to a vRS. This time in white with the diesel engine and most option boxes ticked.

The Columbus Sat Nav does seem pretty cool but it's a shame the car is not as quick as my Fabia!!!!

TAXI!!!!!!!!!!!

Very nice cars:thumbup:

nice cars, the estate i beleive is quite underated. i for one will be looking more closely for one next time i get a car.
