Real pics are definitely needed.
Can't wait to see them!

Proper pics this time I promise :-D

For anyone not following the chat, its an RS5 in stock at Preston :-D

I'll get some from different angles..hopefully it will be sunny...

There's an A4 and RS5 also at Manchester if people want a nosey hehe

Right guys - It seems glacier white is bloody bloody hard to photograph!!!!! I know the picture is crap but thats as good as it gets :-( must be the way cameras pick up the white/silvery colour.....could do to use my digital SLR for this...

Glacier White on the left (A5) - Ibis White on the right (A3)

attached first pic for refrence

the effort I put in for you people! :lol: feel free to send gifts

thanks for that Taconite, looks like it will be one of those colours that you just have to 'see', in the pic they look very similar, but appreciate the effort you made in going down to get the picture, still glad I went for Glacier

 

[taconite2]

I only thing I can suggest is take a few steps back from the PC screen, the glacier is a tad darker. But yes your right its one of those you have to see in the flesh to get a proper idea. Cameras just can't pick it up and I realise now why there's hardly any decent pics online.

Perhaps you to be owners should do what I did - ask nicely if they have another car lying around, 4-5 of the dealers in my local area all had A4s, A5s, RS5s all in stock to view. So it does exist somewhere

Its a beautiful good and you will love it

Thanks Taco... YEAH! I'm lovin' Glacier!

Looks like my Amalfi A1 is sold too, so i will be without a A1 for about 6 weeks!

 

[Mojito]

By the way, do you think the graphite Rotors will suit Glacier ok?

By the way, have you ever been stopped about the spacing on your plates?

 

[triplefan]

Not yet..................been passed several times by plod but never stopped yet, you will need to put standard plates on if you ever keep one long enough to need an MOT :lol:

Right guys I popped over again today as it was raining and I wanted to see how without sunlight this affects the colour....

Personally - I've gone off it now, saleman (different person today) didn't like it either he actually at first thought it was a misordered suzuka grey until he confirmed it using the vechicle number. It reminded me of dirty water you get after washing clothes - a murky grey. And conisdering it rains alot in UK...hmmm

second picture is the best and closest to real life...

 

[Mojito]

Thanks for the pics Phil... I still like it as i'm a Suzuka fan! It seems to be one of those colours that change which i dont mind tbh.

 

[taconite2]

I prefer Suzuka tbh now...

 

[Mojito]

Yeah Suzuka is the best of the lot, but i havent got a few grand for exclusive paint!

 

[taconite2]

mate the way it looks to me....Suzuka is grey, ibis is white...

Glacier just doesn't know which one it is lol
