In The Rain – Sumatra Scirocco
Went along to the dealers to have a first look at my new buggy this afternoon.
Not the weather for photos (and with nothing done to the car apart from (most) of the protective cover removed from the bonnet) ... but here goes!
Sitting in the Queue:
Maroon tone creeping through(?):
Where's me Red "D"?!
Truffle leather ...

Re: In The Rain – Sumatra Scirocco
A really interesting colour Sumatra. Its several different colours in one. Good choice, and a bit different from the norm.

Re: In The Rain – Sumatra Scirocco
Thanks, guys.
I went back to tie up a few loose ends with the salesman tonight - only to discover that a trio of prospective buyers went through the door to speak to him first. He was 'holding the fort' alone tonight, so I had a wait on my hands!
Got the keys to the wagon, inspected it inside and out, and took further photos:

Re: In The Rain – Sumatra Scirocco
So much choice ... and with a Scirocco, can any of the choices really be wrong?!
I like this car in so many colours!
Should be able to pick mine up on Friday / Saturday this week.

The wire fence behind the car made too cool a pattern on the badge for me to ignore it.ZephyR wrote:Love that last shot of the Scirocco badge - unusual angle.

I do like the Sumatra, and I'm itching to get a plate on it and get it home
Mind you, I like almost every colour in which this car comes ... and never tire of people posting up pics of their machine on the Forum.

Re: In The Rain – Sumatra Scirocco
I'm happy with it ... though I saw my first two Rising Blues on the road on Monday past, plus a further two Candy Whites, ... they all look amazing!mrbojangles wrote:Wow, I've not seen pics of a Sumatra roc that close up before.

I know my colour won't stand out in traffic to the same degree - and traffic jams are the order of the day in the stretches of road immediately around my house at the moment - but I'm still interested to see what kind of attention it generates.
My friends have formed a queue in the desire to drive it after I take delivery of it
