which to choose? nearly new Rising or Salsa?

Hi

I've been looking at nearly new 'roc's trying to decide between two of them, both GT TSi and regd in Sep 09:

1 - Rising Blue, with "updated steering wheel", Pan Roof, Satnav, Parking Senors, Bluetooth (which I am guessing will not be of use with my blackberry), black leather. 4000 miles

2 - Salsa Red, with "2009 style sterring wheel", Pan Roof, Satnav, Parking Senors, Folding Mirrors, Type pressure monitor, Black Leather and Xenons, 5000 miles.

There's no material difference in price, once my p/x is taken into account, I'm mildly struggling over:

The interior looks nicer with the updated steering wheel
Rising Blue Metallic looks more distinctive than Salsa Solid
The Salsa one has a very nice spec

What's your thoughts guys and gals?

Cheers

hmmmmmmmmmm, on spec I would say the salsa..
.. apart from the fact it is has the old style steering wheel yet you say it was registered in sept 09 which makes me think that isn't quite right; has it been sitting around or been a demo..? (can they drive demo's around without registering them? )

on colour, having seen both they are equally as tasty..

Hey Trix, thanks for speedy reply....I am edging towards to the Salsa if for nothing else it has Xenons....

they're both Demo cars, both reg'd 1st Sept 09, I am just checking (via my mate who works for VWG) the actual build dates.

When in 09 was the steering wheel update?

the steering wheel changed over back in may (build week 25ish or before)
