Hello Gents,

Thought I'd get in on the action as well, been following this for a while.
My black CSS (with black roof  :wink:) is being delivered tomorrow to my dealer.

I shall put some pictures up, especially on the paint colour comparison to my diamond black pearl R32.
Who knows what it's going to be..

Welcome WWCSS - pictures and thoughts/opinions would be good 😊

Wheel foam as different results depending on what causes the puncture and is only made to get you to the nearest garage!! But read somewhere that once the tyre had it in they recommend it washed out and it affects the tyre inside wall some say that the tyre can't be repaired!!
 Think If I get puncture I just call VW breakdown they provided a car and no way of removing the wheel. ☹️️
Alot of makes now only supply foam and a pump and nothing else. No jack or wheel brace. When we bought a new car earlier this year it was the first thing I looked at to check what if anything it came with.  I then got them to add the expensive kit of parts of spacesaver and tool kit into the deal.
Iooking at and reading about CSS from the start im actually astonished non of the CSS buyers even thought about what if anything was included.

I cant believe VW don't supply you with the means to remove the wheels - can one of the VW dealers on here look into that, i thought that would be braking the DVLA guidelines and contravening some laws in some way ... How would it pass an MOT ?? Also, is this not part of the PDi ...???

She's finally arrived at my dealer! Dropped in to have a look today while the pre-delivery inspection is being done.
I am happy to report that the colour is indeed the VW Deep Black Pearl, not a variation or grey as some of the press cars were.

Looks great ... 😍  Are you getting them to leave the plates off so they don't drill through bumper ..?

Thanks GT4!
Nice little collection going on now with the R32 in the same colour.

Did you leave your plates off, and if so, how did you fix them? DS Tape?
It does look nicer without a holder, and also like the idea of not getting the bumper drilled.
