Better photos soon, when it will be clean outside as well (washed it two days ago, rained yesterday...) :) What is everyone's opinion?

Love it. Personally I prefer the grey interior to the beige. Looks cool.

I have the Eismeer blue and most people who see it love the color. I am partial however to the beige interior rather than the grey.

I like it! Obviously I'm biased towards the beige, which is a warmer colour, but the light colours work well on the interior imho! It depend what the exterior colour is too - with the Island grey, which is cold, it needed some warmth, hence the beige - the blue/grey is a good match!

By the way - nice garage!! Love the tiled floor - we live in a country cottage so it just wouldn't work here, especially in rainy old UK = it would be muddy within a nanosecond! But it can't stop me dreaming!!

Happy EDA's, Paul

I really like very much the red interior too. Seems sport and "old time" -if i am using the right term- luxurious at the same time (reminds me of old Mercedes-Benz convertibles).

Tell my wife about the colour (she preferred silver, as she was afraid that people would consider Eismeer blue as "too much", a sign of bad taste. Now, she doesn't seem to remember that... :) ). Reminds me of summer (despite the Eis...), cool mood, relaxation and italian movies with Marcello Mastroyiani and Sofia Lauren :) . I liked too the beige interior, but i was afraid of the baige carpets (get easily dirty) and i didn't very much like the beige seatbelts.

Thanks for the comments, the Island grey is really classy. You can't probably have tiled floor in UK, but you have road network that allows you to enjoy your Eos fully -which is not the rule for Greece :)

Congratulations! Looks like a very nice colour combo. I really do like the grey interior.

Funny how car manufacturers allow certain colour combinations and tech specs for certain markets.

It's not what the manufacturers allow.
It's VW's organisations in the respective countries that decide what is right for their own market. And they don't always know what they're doing.

VW UK for instance decided that white is a no-no in the UK (which it was). They're always about 2 years behind trends and now that white is the new black you can guarantee they'll offer it in about 2 years time...

I too like the gray, it is very cool and refreshing. Nice garage too! Probably a dumb question, is the center console/computer in Greek?

No, no, no, other languages yes, Greek now (not suprising, having in mind that Greece is a rather small market -although VW sells very well).

In my opinion it looks great. When ours came in last November, the salesman said it was a great combination and we had to agree. I was looking at the tan at first, but my wife wanted the moon rock and I had to bow to her better taste.
