I have one of these.

Candy white 3 door

1. Xenons
2. Leather heated seats
3. Monza diamond cut wheels
.
I also have:
4. Parking Sensors
5. Highline Computer
6. Cruise Control
7. Winter Pack
8. DSG
9. Have other options I believe, like that arm rest thingy lol

Also has stage 1 revo map which I couldnt live without.

Love it and not seen many about in white either. I think the only option it hasnt got is the sat nav. Has nearly 4000 quid worth of options.

Get Black - White is black most of the time in the UK anyway.

Whites easier to keep clean than black I always find  :smiley:

In order of preference i want :-

1. Xenons (as i think its going to be a ball ache to retrofit them to work 100% as from factory)
2. Leather heated seats (all the ones ive seen so far are all cloth and not heated)
3. Monza diamond cut wheels (not so fussed about the wheels as its easy to change them)


I've got a pretty similar wish list.

Must have Xenons.  Specc'd them on the wifes Octavia and now wouldn't be without them.  That's the one thing I won't compromise on.
I want heated seats too- not fussy if it's cloth or leather, although heated cloth is rare. Again specc'd them on the Octavia and love them!
Must also have the highline computer and an armrest.

18's and cruise are must haves but both can be easily and relatively cheaply retrofitted so not too fussed about those.

I want red or grey though and preferebaly 5 door (although I would take a 3dr and maybe a black one if it was otherwise perfect- I'd seen the black one you linked to with the Recaros and would be tempted if it wasn't so far away).

I'm not even seriously looking yet and I'm getting frustrated at not being able to find my perfect spec! :grin:
