Ordered a Rapid Elegance :)

Featured Replies

Tweaking will most likely not happen for a while - our first baby due in 9 weeks! :)

Have you thought of a name yet? I suggest Fabian for a boy, Felicia for a girl, or Yeti if it's a hairy monster :)

    £70? saving on VED over three years of having the car ^^^ Are you having me on? 3 years? You change your car more often than I change my pants - but that's a different subject

lol :)

Yep, got a name sorted but not car related :D

I prefer Octavia for a girl, as long as it's someone else's ! :D

I suppose naming 'citigo' could get confusing come potty training time!

Debating a boot spoiler - short list is genuine Rapid lip spoiler or genuine mk1 Octavia vRS spoiler.

Hmm...

One for the photoshop lads again me thinks?!

Obviously have seen the lip spoiler on the Rapid but a mock up of the RS one would be worth a try.

Would give it a go but photoshop is not my forte, still have trouble uploading full size pics :wall:

Black wheels, black wheels, black wheels :happy:

Price difference is massive too - £40 for vRS and £130 for a lip spoiler...

Must ask Leon for a photoshop :)

Maybe black mirrors but not black wheels for now!

Maybe I should pop down to Preston Motors next week and pop this Super Skoda one on for a quick pic.

If its the same as the one in the vrs thread I'll have one! :)

How much was it Richard? Been looking at Octavia vrs mk1 spoiler as can be had for £40...

  • Author

V1 for me then, unless I get an octy vrs one.

Just had a look at those spoilers and then at the stainless steel grille rib covers, I can feel my credit card quivering in my pocket!

Going to be ordering the v1 spoiler and the splitter attatchment thingy seen here...

And been debating 18 inch wheels - short list so far are:

VW Scirocco Turbines

Skoda Octavia vRS Neptunes

BBS CH of some description.

All when funds allow and the misses doesn't notice :)

Tempted by black mirrors but not 100%.

On a separate note did an airport run at 3am this morning, averaged 54mpg for the journey - 60 miles or so round trip.

M25/M23 there and M23/A264 back.

Happy chappie - range showing 550 miles inc what I've covered.

Looks a nice car AdLav - don't think it lends itself to huge modifications, just some subtle tweaks here and there.

Not quite sure how the 17s nake it's stance but I suspect (knowing Skoda) that a set of 18s would FILL the arches better.

Happy driving!

  • Author

Not going mad, like you say subtle tweaks suit skoda's.

Like vrs spiders and lowering on the mk1 fabia ;)

Got a friend to do a photoshop of spoiler and wheels and he put a rude boy exhaust on too lol :)

That looks beaut. I like how it still has an OEM look.

Looks like I might have to get me one of them spoilers :rock:

Not changing the wheels though... 15s mean cheaper tyres I reckon :giggle:

Looks great doesn't it!?

I hope it fits well Adam!! :D will be worth the wait, and certainly something to think about when it comes to the tail pipes!

Top job on the photo shop!

MK1SPOILER.jpgr32%2520alloys.jpg

Here's the other two - fitted with MK1 Octavia vRS spoiler - MK2 Octavia vRS spoiler won't fit as too wide by 2cm.

Thinking R32 or Scirocco alloys seen above.

Leon you are a dude! Your skills are brilliant, wish I was that good lol

With regards to exhuasts, probably try a side exit exhaust like the lower pic.

  • Author

I think the lower pic looks a bit like a Mondeo ST220 or STtdci... anyone else lol :)

Leon - wasn't going to say you did them incase you get flooded with requests :D

Yeah, I see the ST220, but yours will be better! :p

Well now you mention it... Leon mate, I want my Dad's face swapping onto the body of Lily Savage so I can nail them to telegraph posts around the village as a bloke joke for his 60th.

Also, I've always wondered what Penelope* Cruz would look like wearing nothing but paint-splattered overalls with a look on her face saying 'oops, I've accidentally-on-purpose splatted paint all over you.... by accident :smirk: ' .

Another one sporting Octavia vRS alloys :)
