I've noticed on DriveTheDeal that they have as a metallic option, eclipse orange on the Cupra 300's

I think the new orange looks the absolute nuts. I wish it had been available 7 odd months ago when I got my FR. Is it only on cupra or other specs too?

It looks like DriveTheDeal lets you choose the colour on any spec car, but I think it's likely it'll be restricted to certain trim levels when it comes to order.

My dealership initially said they thought it would only be available on Cupra.

Not sure it’s available in the UK on any trim level yet - either that or the SEAT UK configurator needs updating...

Spoke with my supplying Dealer this afternoon & mentioned the eclipse orange colour

He said this colour will be available to order on any car built from BW47 / 2017 onwards

My Cupra is still at BW49, so even if I wanted to change colours, I have a feeling my order will be 'locked' well before this

I test drove a Arona few weeks back that had the same Eclipse Orange color.
I was a bit disappointed about the color on a cloudy day. It looks too brown for my taste as you can see in the pictures above.
Under the showroom lights it looks very sweet! Too bad most of the days in Finland are dark and cloudy.
