        Wasn't too sure about the colour at first, but it's grown on me.

              It's a very nice colour and will hide the dirt & road film pretty well (dark cars show the dirt more badly)

                It was the main colour used in the brochures for the Octavia.

                I wanted to get an arctic green 1.8TSI wagon but could only get cappucino beige at the right price.
                Which has grown on me luckily!

                  Look at the little ?Suzuki in the pic on the other side of the road. THAT'S silver.

                    Congrats on the new car - i trust my brother looked after you at the dealership? You wont know yourself in this after hopping out of a Hyundai Tuscon.

                    See you round.

                      ah yes......that comparison with the silver swift in the background makes it clear.
                      looks like my laptop at home is playing color games with me. viewing it here at work, i can clearly see the "green" influence there.

                        Yeah my last car was black, not easy to keep clean.

                          Yes, Mitchell looked after us; he was great to deal with. It sure is a change from the Hyundai

                            congrats on the car! i think arctic green is growing on me (either that or I'm just imagining some wheel combos).
