I took them today during my session, this car does turn heads! I should have another shot on Monday, so I'll get the Sales guy to drive whilst I take pics from the inside of the cabin. Going back on Monday as I had problems connecting my iPhone and iPod to the MDI - just wasn't working.

This spec for the above demo is.. Pearl Black, DSG, Pan Sun, 6 CD Radio, Black Leather


PS The Sport mode is unreal on country roads.

Anyone seen any in Shadow Blue? Seems like a compromise between Rising Blue and Black

Cheers for the photo's kev.
I was seduced by firespark and ordered a roc in (salsa) red. The combination of the salsa photo you posted and seing a dealership car in rising blue caused me to change my order today. Build week's still at 42...no Xennons, so fingers crossed it'll stay that way.
Nice work mate...vw's site just isn't cutting it for anyone buying sight unseen.

ps...

I may have missed something but that horrible black thing with the kit and wheels is (bad) photoshop.

i agree the sumatra looks very good on those and is lava grey esk, best shots i have seen as they capture how it reatcs to the light, classy too, i'll stick with the rising blue for a change

I'm told that this is Pewter Grey/Berylliumgrau - really hard to tell because of the way the light changes

It's like a dark grey/silver colour.
