New 1.4 TSI 160 in Salsa Red

Post by Roy »

Had a quick look at my new wheels today before I collect next month :D . Pleased with the colour, was worried was going to be a darker red. Still to be de-badged. Not best pic as just the pocket camera.

Thanks stunt, I think the car looks best in the brighter colours. Was a smart looking viper outside the showroom and a black for sale as the buyer had changed his mind to blue after ordering. Just noticed that this pic - taken when started to sleet - shows a red, white and blue...

Less than a week to the new car :) found a couple of pics of my last Scirocco... a MK2 GTII with Corrado alloys.

Still looks good. In its day it certainly had the WOW factor.

Collected this morning :D . Enjoying the new car, well impressed. Not found anything yet to fault. Getting used to the visibility to the rear takes a bit.
Looking forward to getting back to the twisty roads in the Highlands... 8)

Lovely colour and nice spot to go to! Holyrood Park? I've been up in exactly the same position to take photos in the past

I think it actually looked nice too when I first thought it had a white bonnet and white roof! lol. Thought "wow, ain't seen that before". lol.

True, you don't see many reds. Only seen one around here in Staffordshire.
