How much are 19 Xtremes worth?
Hi, thinking of selling my 19" Xtremes in anthracite but have no idea what they're worth. They're in excellent condition with 4 good Pirelli P-Zeros on them. I'm not selling today but just wondering if they're worth much.

Real world VRS economy
How accurate is the onboard computer? According to that I am averaging 30mpg with a lot of shorter journeys (3 miles) and high 30s on occasional longer runs.

Skoda Octavia 3 Owners register
To be fair it's worth asking if anyone else has experienced this on here. For what it's worth, my 17 plate hasn't got any flaking yet.

I'd be taking that back to Skoda

Never see 18s and front parking sensors
Agree it's not too bad to my ears but the bass does dissappear as you get moving. I'm thinking of adding an underseat sub to help out.

Windscreen vent reflections
Thought so. The left one seems to bounce an unbelievable amount of light back from signs. I'm not sure LED lights are a necessity and God help us when one fails.

Windscreen vent reflections
Facelift here too and yes they really light up the road. Are they height adjustable at all?

Windscreen vent reflections
Unfortunately I have. But worse is the glare from road signs when the full beam is on. What lights does a 17 plate vRS have? I've had Xenons before but these seem to be next level.

Probably not the best idea at night though 😂

Never see 18s and front parking sensors
Indeed, that's what I'm doing. Have bought a set of Geminis and need to get them refurbished now. So if anyone wants a set of refurbished Xtrems with 4 good Pirellis then please let me know 😂

Never see 18s and front parking sensors
I've seen loads of 'normal' vRS with 19s and front parking sensors too. Mine for example is a 17 plate 230 (I think) and has 19s and FPS. Plus black pack plus and winter pack apparently but that's a different story. And I have seen zero vRS's with 18s and FPS.

That'll be a rare care in the future!

Never see 18s and front parking sensors
When I was looking for a vRS (petrol) I must have looked online at hundreds. But not once did I see one on 18s and with front parking sensors. How come? Some weird option pack from Skoda?

Windscreen vent reflections
Anyone else notice that their windscreen vents are reflected in the screen itself? And has anyone fixed the issue?

Paint code on anthracite Xtremes
Hi all, does anyone have the paint code details for the anthracite version of the Xtremes please? Picture below shows the colour I'm after. Looking to get my wheels done like this. Thanks

Thanks for the info and offer both, I'll do some research.

Looks good. What's high beam assist? I'm assuming there are a lot of hidden features that can be unlocked with this VCDS thingy.

Advice on buying secondhand 2015 octavia
I think the DSG needs servicing every 40,000 miles so I'd look for that in its history. That's all I know sorry.

Post your Mk3 Octavia photos!
Here's my 2017 tsi vRS in meteor grey. Has the black pack plus fitted and maybe the winter pack too as it's got heated seats and front screen. Really wanted a meteor grey estate with the silver interior stitching and front parking sensors so bought this unseen from a Skoda dealer 3.5hrs away. Bit risky but it turned out well.

Bigger alloys eh? I'll have a set of genuine 19 Xtreme in anthracite up for sale soon...😉😅

Any photoshop experts?
Trouble is I have to choose a colour to get the wheels refurbished in, without seeing what the finished product looks like 😬

Any photoshop experts?
Brilliant thanks. I think I'm going to have to go even darker again.

Questions from a new owner
I'm highly unlikely to need anything more than the standard set up. But when I look on the car part websites there's 2 options for pads based on different part numbers for some reason.
