hello down under RRE members.... - teambwr - 20-04-2013 09:02am

Hello all,

Found the site today as we finalise a spec and try and find a new car.....

Just realising how difficult it is to locate a 'stock car' and keen to not compromise on my spec just because a 'similar' spec is already here somewhere.

Seems like we're ordering in the next week or so-

Dynamic Orkney Grey with Verve interior.

Shadow style 7 wheels
Glass roof
Ebony headlining
Black roof rails

Can't believe its maybe a 4 month wait.....Sad......but i guess thats being down here in OZ.


Something a few of you may be able to help with is the "Verve' interior colour....

I have seem the configurator pics and it looks a warm dark red but then i've also seen a few internet pictures of a red/black interior in which the red 'looks' too red if you understand what i mean.

Does anyone know if Verve is a recent combo and was there another
black/red combo at one time?

Verve was an original interior choice.

I ordered it in Oct 11.

It is in reality more of a dull red, closer to maroon, however, like everything colour wise lighting, photos and computer images show it in different shades.

As far as I know it has never changed, just the images produced that makes it look different.

My car has all the features you're looking for I hope!. Also the red is darker than what my pics show too... It's a real nice darkish red.

You could have It in a week and back in Brisbane in 2! Don't wait 4 months! Give me a call on 0410 886 886. Cheers, Jai

Hi and thanks but after a petrol not diesel but good luck with the sale.....

Thanks mate :). What's the LCT worth on the petrol these days? They couldn't sell petrol versions in Perth!

LCT cuts in at $57K on petrol and $75K for diesel

Yes it does have an impact on the price of the car but to be honest not that bothered on that....cars in Australia are a rip off pricing wise anyway, just want to get the car and spec I want.

I'm from the UK and even without LCT, how car manufacturers can justify some of the costs here I just can't understand, especially European cars, even accounting for shipping!
