    Does anyone have a RED RS?

    It seems as if Red RS Wagons are hard to find also.??

    There are no new ones in the country on any of the websites...

    They just seem so rare, as opposed to Golf GTIs which seem to be in red everywhere I look...

    (As many of you know I have been trying to find a Rallye green RS too, and that was near on impossible)

    Any one have a Red RS wagon?

    When I bought my blue RS wagon I test drove a red RS sedan at the Mt Gravatt dealer. I didn't like the red. It appeared to be a different shade of red to the Golf GTI?

    I saw a red RS sedan driving through Mittagong, once... I'm thinking they'd just bought it from Moss Vale and were driving it back home to Sydney. Haven't seen it since.

    There is a red manual RS liftback at Bryan Byrt Skoda at Mt Gravatt. Skoda Australia, in there ordering wisdom, did not order hardly any of the Skoda models in red. When I was working there the amount of red Yeti's I could have sold would have doubled our sales, as every woman wanted the same red Yeti that was on the billboards.

    Red and Green are two superb colours when put together!
