All mine!  Still at the dealer! I hope I'll pick it up this week.

Very nice. I considered this exact spec as it was my dealers display model however my neighbour currently has a mk3 FL in this colour. It's one of the few cars I think suits the colour

I was already looking for mk3 VRS in this color. But there were only a few TSIs with low millage on sale and all very expensive. So I decided to increase my budget a little and went for a mk4 VRS.

You won't regret it. I had a mk3 vrs tsi for 6 years (longest I've kept a motor) and this is miles ahead. Takes a while to get accustomed to the infotainment but the build quality both inside and out has moved on leaps and bounds.  I'm in and out of alot of different cars and Skoda has struck this perfect

Glad to hear that. I must admit I'm little nervous. This is my first new car since I got my driving license back in January 1999.  I'm upgrading from a 17 year old Honda Accord 2.0 petrol. It will be quite a leap I assume.

Hi,

 

Which blue is this? Did you get any wax on it?

it looks like Petrol Blue, other places called Lava Blue. This is our iV in the same color:

Thanks. That’s what I thought. Looks great!!

 

Hopefully I’ll pick up mine within a couple days. “Lava blue” sedan with Pulsar rims.

In Croatia it's called Lava Blue. This is the way it came out of the dealer.

Hey folks, 

 

here's mine on the showroom floor:

 

 

And here's one on a rainy winter day:

 

 

 

[TheUltraRunner]

Nice one! 

Looks like in Slovenia 90% of the new MK4 VRS owners have chosen Steel Grey color! 

[RRovan]

I was on the fence between Steel Grey and Candy White, but then decided on the grey. I think a white RS would stand out too much as I prefer a more "sleeper" look. 

[TheUltraRunner]

Same here. Also dirt will not be so visible so much on this color.  I'm picking mine tomorrow. I'm going nuts already. 

[Jmagee]

I do like the grey. I went silver in the end. 

[SC03OTT]

Grey looks good on the Mk4. I wasn’t really a fan on the Mk3. 

[Jmagee]

Here's a picture of mine. Needs a wash already. 

[parsey83]

Nice, silver is one of the rarer colours these days

[TheUltraRunner]

Nice! 

goes nicely with the brushed parts on the rims and the black plastics.

 

[TheUltraRunner]

And here is mine. Finally. With the aftermarket winter wheels. Not the best weather to pick up the new car.  

[RRovan]

Damn, those wheels are looking good!

I agree. 

I was a bit afraid how will they look on the car since I bought them "blind". There are not many pictures of the MK4 out there with aftermarket wheels. But it turned out quite good.

[Jmagee]

That looks lovely. Starting to think I picked the wrong colour 🙄
