Pretty. No spare but subwoofer.... bet you got that in hand.

Anyhow it arrived before Xmas 👍.
I think it's to do with the clearance needed for the bigger brakes on the vz3 you don't get a spare which is a shame. My old shape has a subwoofer and spare. I'd rather have the bigger brakes though tbh

I did wonder whether it was like the Cupra Ateca where the back wheel won't fit on the front or something, so they swap the wheels around with a flat. But at that stage I'd give up.

Are we saying the floor plain is different on the VZ3 like a 4drive. Perhaps you just get a grubby wheel in the boot if it doesn't fit but that's sort of like a skinny 🫣.

A bit of a drive not to have spares these days in anycase, although it leaves you vulnerable to buy something to fit if away In an emergency.

Quick pic after passing the detailer to discuss a few bits with the car. Black rear badges on order from our sponsor @COX Motor Parts as well as a boot tray. They don't make the touch up pen for this colour paint yet! Let's hope I don't need it anyway :)

Also set the app up so can now check on the car remotely and lock and unlock it which is cool and a novelty for me anyway!

It's not a shared VAG colour ?. Seat and Skoda share their paints. VW doesn't. Has upmarket Cupra moved out of paint sharing on the codes ?. The paint names are different but the paint code is the same. One of those fun Saturday afternoon things is to cross reference paint codes 🎨 ;).

Thought as much the launch Ateca was in Samoa... x2u a google puts x2u as an Audi colour... explains why I see that colour now on other VAG brands... mind you, you have to have the right weather for that.

Yes CUPRA now use their own colours going forward
You mean if I Google

Taiga Grey​



S7A


Seems to share

4U, LS7A, S7A

Trip to Walmart then 😉


Expect the Terramar built in the Audi factory will have Audi colours. Reckon potential Audi paint colour sharing now. The Skoda riff raff will share with VW. You paid extra for that Samoa colour. Smaller production runs etc.
