Looks really nice in this weather.
I do like white. Terrible for showing sort and marks, but when it's clean it's superb.

@WillWord; Looks good. I know you were disappointed at not getting the AID, but I do think VW’s current generation conventional analogue dials look very good in a classy, understated sort of way.

I think White is a good colour, and IMO is much easier to maintain and more forgiving than a dark colour for not showing scratches and swirl marks. White will probably be the colour I choose for my next car.

Enjoy your car, and I look forward to hearing what life with your Polo is like over the coming weeks / months 😊.

I totally agree regarding white. It's definitely more forgiving than black. I can vouch for this after 3 years of owning a Deep Black pearlescant Scirocco. Saying that though, I'm not sure what a non-metallic black roof will be like to look after....

And here's a sneaky pic of my Scirocco after I'd washed it today (sorry OP). I'm getting it ready for GTI International at the weekend [emoji16]Image

Looks great and really good reflections. I really like the Scirocco.

I know what a labour of love black cars can be to look after- I’ve owned five black cars (2 of which were DBP Golfs), so I must be a glutton for punishment!

It's actually White Silver, looks a lot different in the flesh, changes shades in different light, white/silver/pale blue, different people see different shades.

In the SEL is that central screen a colour screen?

The Multi Functional Display is only Black and White.

It is a really nice colour. I was looking at one in that colour on Sunday at a retailer that's close to me

The physical instrument cluster looks good. You may well be pleased to have it when all the AID dash boards start to go on the blink, which they will of course. I cannot imagine them lasting half as long as the dials you have there.

Collected today. R-Line 115 Manual. Really impressed, nippy and handles well. Getting some looks out on the road tonight and the rear LED’s look awesome. Very happy with my purchase and the 5 month wait is a distant memory! :)
