I picked up my new Octavia Sportline in Royal Green a few weeks ago. I haven't yet seen another Skoda in this colour, not on the road or at a dealership.

Has anyone else got one in this colour or seen another on the road yet?

Spectacular colour! 👌

Looks very nice. My kind of colour 👌

Unreal! Looks like a pearlescent deep emerald green, very, very nice! 

Looks lovely! 

Do an RS in it and it would be almost British Racing Green.

It's a factory option which you can get on the RS too. 

Beautiful colour but it's not widely available.  IIRC, it was done as a one off to mark QE2's diamond jubilee.

I think it was to commemorate Charlie boy ascending to the throne. Either way, tipping hats to royals or not, it's a lovely colour

Hi.

 

We've just replaced our putty grey Karoq sportline with what looks like a identical car to yours about 2 weeks ago. I wasn't sure about the colour when we ordered it, but love it now it's here. The picture of yours is the only other one I've seen.

Very nice. 

 

Google images keyword search.  Royal Green.

 

A very in colour.  Nothing about UK Royals really, maybe similar to a Land Rover colour, if not metallic.  Or military uniforms if a fabric.

Paint, wallpaper, Whisky, Tea Infusion 'Royal Green' products etc.

Unfortunately it is very much to do with the UK royals according to Skoda.

I was the same, the only pictures I could find were the CGI models of the car on skodas website. It doesn't really give a real representation of the colour. It is lovely though, especially with the Sportline or VRS trim

Hi There is another one in Lincolnshire, mine.

John

I have one in Staffordshire sportline hatch not seen another.

Just ordered a VRS in this colour. Looks stunning i think

Here is mine, for those struggling one finding like I was

I love it but I won't be having another Octy, they're too expensive and also I don't need a big car anymore.

That [censored] in No.11 has killed off any plans for another RS. So a Fabia 130 maybe in order, but not enamoured by the limited colours!

It was Theresa May who signed up the UK to net Zero by 2050

Stunning colour 😎👍

It's my third Octavia vRS now, I don't need the size, I just love the car, and this certainly hasn't disappointed!

And who put the £40k luxury car tax in. A new RS is over £40k before adding any options, so it attracts a £640 pa VED charge. And as I don't really need a big car anymore as both of my parents & dogs have now died, I'm on my own and I only do longer journeys 4 times a year now, I can do without a larger car. So I'm thinking about the Fabia 130.

Seems to be going off topic somewhat. I only posted so others, like me, trying to find a Royal Green vRS may have the option to see one, so I hope it helps whoever is considering the purchase an option to view one in the flesh so to speak 👍 (and btw you can get it for less than £40K depending on your options)

Price starts from over £40,000 though for a vRS hatch or Estate..

Petrolped on YouTube reviewed an RS in this colour some time ago
