Fabulous shots, Gaz. Might you be able to answer: Is the ceiling interior fabric or plastic? I can never tell from any of the pics we've seen so far. Thanks.

Gaz,
Thanks, great pics! Do you have any more red?
Is the Red as dark and deep as shown in your 1st pic?
Are the small flaps under the lights for headlamp washers?
Cheers
Oilman:D

I think the rectangle under the lights are washers. The TTC has a similar set up whereby when the lights are on water pressure forces (what the TT owners call) aliens out which squirt water onto the lights. Would make sense.

But don't really understand the light under the window mirrors. If they are supposed to light up the ground where we would put our feet when getting out the car, presumably the light arc will swing away as the door opens leaving our landing area in the dark.

Great pics. Lets have more Red!!
I love the head-on profile of the car as seen in the tit grey picture. This is the rear mirror view other people will have of you coming up behind them before they get out of your way!
Looks like we are getting headlamp wash as well then IF these are Euro spec cars.
I like the idea of the 'puddle light' in the mirrors, but agree with Rael as to how effective it will be when the door is opened.
Keep 'em coming. I need a nother fix!

More pics from Geneva Show 2003
Excuse I for my not terrible English, but I make what I can...
Evel333: The ceiling is in high quality cloth (fabric?)
Oilman : The red is very metallic: The colour changes a lot according to the luminosity (Sun, Cloudy, etc.). It varies of the 1st pic and those that I add later.
And yes! Small flaps under the lights are for headlamp washers (We have many "mosquitoes" in Europe) :-)
Rael : Lamps under window mirrors ignite when opens doors with the remote control and serve for enlightening eventuelles puddles or...

When door is opened... There is a lamp situated at the bottom of the door
The brown leather does not well produce in photo. Before I did not find it beautiful. But since I saw it, I want only that!
