I'm about to order a Take Up. I'm trying to decide between a white one or blue one. I can't seem to find any pictures of a pale blue one on the internet. Pictures, advice and comments very welcome.

Thanks.

There are very few of us who've ordered a light blue one to be honest. There are a couple of pics on the forum but I'm struggling to remember where. Will post again when I find them.

In the meantime, from what's been said on here, the light blue is VERY light and looks almost white in some lights. I saw the colour swatch at my dealer's and the only way I could tell it was blue was to put it next to the white swatch, at which point the difference was quite noticeable.

I'm due to get mine in 3-4 weeks and will post some pics then but I have to say the white is definitely more popular and does look fantastic.

Hope that helps.

Thank you for the reply. I'd very much like to see the pictures. I've looked on VW's website and, like you, could barely tell the difference between the white and blue model. I've always disliked white cars but the Up must be the prettiest car in white I've seen.

Hi Alan,

Here you go. A couple of pics of the light blue from one lucky forum member who's already got hers (might need to scroll up the page to see them)

I was stuck when I ordered mine. I really don't like black, white or red cars so was left with a choice of blue or silver. The VW configurator doesn't show the blue very well at all but I decided to go for that anyway. I still haven't seen it in the flesh but I'm glad I chose the blue because it's definitely quite rare.

I tried I get the take up in light blue having been on the vw website but when my car dealership and I sat down to look at he brochure we couldn't figure out the colour swatches, and the guy had been there for six years! Tone far he has been brilliant at his job with everything else.
So I chose the white instead.

BTW if you choose to use your web browser to convert German to English (automatically prompts in Google Chrome) you will find every combination of up! imaginable...

Those are brilliant photos. Cheers. I'm now sold on the colour.

I do think it's weird though, that with just three base colour options, VW chose two (blue and white) which are so similar.

Thanks for this. It's the first pic I've seen that really shows the colour and I am SO glad I opted for this one.

Even more excited to get it now

I've had some rather vague information from my local dealer that my light blue High up! will be built in late July or early August. I've opted for:
Classic alloys
Light blue dash
Grey-beech Polka seats
Sensor pack
Spare wheel
Carpets
Mud flaps front and rear
Boot liner
Rear bumper protection film
Door sill trim (the cheaper one - part number 1S3 071 310)

Now the long wait""¦
