Yellow Peril

[BossFox]

Guess what I just did.

12(ish) weeks...

[Ad Lav]

Linky no worky...

Guessing you've ordered a yellow 1.4tsi dsg Rapid in SE spec as per your drooling the other day

[softscoop]

Can't like this enough!

Proof you are Skoda mad!

Shame Skoda UK won't do 1.4 DSG in Elegance.

There we go.

Was rushing and screwed up the link.

Could have had a 1.2 tsi elegance in yellow, sports seats etc.

When I order my spoiler should I order you one lol

[BossFox]

No, not 1.4 DSG.

It's a 1.2tsi 6 speed manual Rapid Elegance with a lot of toys.

My reasoning for that over the 1.4DSG is:

1. I'm not such a big fan of the DSG as I get bored easily while driving.

2. It's about £1500 cheaper.

3. It's easier to remove if I have a mad engine moment.

They do a 1.4 DSG in Elegance now Sam, started a few weeks ago I think.

Can't see that ever happening

(Treat that as a dare if you wish)

Yes, that's what I've got coming.

Which spoiler are you going for?

Ah well they still haven't updated their website. (Nothing new there)

[Ad Lav]

Good job, same as mine just yellow

I was hoping you'd give in and buy one so I can see what a vRS would look like

I really like the yellow!

[Ad Lav]

Getting the mini spoiler as per the official Skoda cz website.

[LeeHarrison]

Pleasure as always Richard

[RapidRonnie]

Awesome! I could sense this coming

What options have you gone for?

Elegance plus...

Body colour side mouldings,

Boot pack,

Spare wheel,

Sports seats,

Sunset Glass,

3rd Headrest,

Rear armrest,

Tyre pressure monitor.

No 17'' wheels, shocking.

Is that the stock 1.4 DSG one?

It's a bit subtle. Think I need the SuperSkoda one as it's going on a yellow car.

[BossFox]

It won't have stock wheels.

[Ad Lav]

I think so - Preston motors said one went out with that spoiler on it, never seen it listed in our brochures as an option or as stock equipment.

I'd need to see it in person I think, Internet pictures can be misleading!

You have more cars than I have hot dinners! So is this 2 x yeti, 1 x citigo and 1x rapid now? Or are you losing one of the others? Is it just me or do others get the rapid and the octavia confused?

I'm not going to say as it's quite frankly a bit embarrassing.

But I'm having a bit of a clear out in a month or so and will need to sell a few off.

Keeping the Yeti though.

Yes, it looks almost exactly the same. (IMO)

[Ad Lav]

Others get the two confused

I have Skoda envy!

Just shown my wife and she went 'ooh nice, could we have had a yellow one?!' Lol
