Hi!
This beauty arrived this thursday following a 6 months of a wait.
It's a thrilling machine! Still doing the running-in but really enjoing it though.
I know you guys don't get the alcantara option seats down there but hope you enjoy these, ratherly small pics of her anyways.

Congrats!
Still haven' t heard nothing from the dealer about mine )=
Don' t forget to open the throttle during the break in period to show the car how life is going to be on finish roads and to seal the piston rings!
Enjoy!!
edit: Cool colour mix with the alcantaras! You should fit some decent mats too!

Unfortunately not, just Black or Truffle leather or Merlin Cloth. Pity really as that 3rd photo of the interior looks very nice.
Congratulations on your new arrival Veeto.

Really like the interior...
Do you have more photos?
The car is produced in Portugal but, unfortunately, we don't have access to those materials in the interior...
Show us some more photos

Hi Veeto,
Looks stunning, I also really like the interior.
Apologies if this is a litle off topic but there's a B&W Scirocco shot in your Flickr set. What effect have you used to create this? It's a great picture. (Hope you don't mind me posting it here)

Thanks, and no piggy at all. It's also a Scirocco!
The picture is done by using HDR (High dynamic range) and tone mapped and then converted to B&W..
Wikipedia gives you more information about the technique. And if you really fancy,
this is what you can create with it

Cheers Veeto,
I've tried a few HDR's so am familiar with that. Never tried taking it to the next stage though. Brilliant picure
