Finally got round to taking a few pics of the new steed...

Nice, I pick mine up on Thursday. I should have gone for yellow, white is just too popular now :( :P

Looks awesome m8 - white cars are so in at the moment and that doesnt disapoint - best Ive seen.

As an owner of a VRStdi 170, whats it like? Im thinking pretty strongly about replacing my old 110tdi to a 170.

The choice is New Mondeo 140bhp, a secondhand beemer 330d / audi 3.0 tdi or an Octy VRS tdi,

Hows it compare on the road?

Cheers

Here are my thoughts when I first test drove the 170:

Feel pretty much the same now I have mine. So glad I fitted the Eibach/FSD combo as the ride/handling without it is rubbish IMO. Looks like you're comparing apples and pears though. I suspect neither the Octy nor the Mundaneo will hold a candle to the Beemer or the Audi...

Nice car! Just make sure you hang a high-vis jacket over the back of your seat and watch the traffic part for you :D

It does look really nice in white, enjoy it.

as for the cars, i've driven em all apart from the audi, id say the 330d, mondy feels a bit underpowered and rear wheel drive is always fun :P

Nice, on a par with silver !!!

If I ever get another VRS I think I could be tempted to go for white

I should have got a White one. :(

That looks superb, I'm in the same boat as Paul in waiting for mine too, white certainly seems to be the colour at the moment!

That would suggest that you travel above the legal limit sometimes :eek::rofl:

You might think that - but I couldn't possibly comment...

Just noticed, are the black covers on the door pillars Skoda fit or just summat you had done yourself?

Looks seriously super mate.

From the amount of people on this thread saying they're getting white ones though it looks like Race Blue may become an exclusive colour

My excuse is when I ordered mine, white wasn't a UK colour and needed some spec-change jiggery pokery by the dealer to get it to the UK. No longer to be so exclusive now it seems...
