Hi guys,
How can I have the price be replaced rather than the variant price adding onto the base price? Is this possible?
If not, how can I have the additional price of the variant displayed as - £x.xx extra or similar instead of the default - £x.xx
At the moment it does not make sense for my product when trying to choose a different size that costs slightly more, the smallest size is not 'FREE', there is just no additional charge over base price! (see images)

No one has any advice here? I thought this would be an easy one to answer.
I'm really at a loss that no one has attempted to answer this yet, surely I am not the only one that thinks the lack of flexibility in how cartVariants are displayed (and indeed the default method) is stupid..?
delete the default value "0" in the back-end. This will change the the "free"' to nothing.
For your first question see: http://forum.virtuemart.net/index.php?topic=96591.0
Hi merdan2005, thanks for the reply.
I have tried the removal and found that it didn't look right still, so instead I simply edited the php file to remove the prices being shown on variants, now only the main price adjusts. It's not ideal, but its better - the link you posted was for a tax based issue, not directly related, but thanks :)
<?php $field->display = str_replace( '$', '+$', $field->display ); ?><?php echo $field->display ?>
^^ will add a + to the dollar value.
THEN: do a language override for the text

Thank you, is that line to add the + still in the administrator/components/com_virtuemart/models/customfields.php file?

No, thats the views/productdetails/tmpl/default.php
There is no reason to change the administrator files for something so small.
Do a layouts override, and the changes will not get overwritten when you update
i also want to add the + in front of the extra price display, because it makes sense.
so i put this code
<?php $field->display = str_replace( '$', '+$', $field->display ); ?><?php echo $field->display ?>
into views/productdetails/tmpl/default.php
but the page went blank
so where exactly do i place this code on which line, and do since i use the euro do i have the change the symbol?

in the add to cart form, you will see the cart attributes.
REPLACE this <?php echo $field->display ?>
with this
<?php $field->display = str_replace( '$', '+$', $field->display ); ?><?php echo $field->display ?>
