Handbrake position
My current SEAT Leon has the handbrake right by the passenger seat and I can't say I have noticed an issue in nearly 8 years driving it. Only thing I can think of is if we had a large drink in the centre cup holder that got in the way.

Great news, I hope i get mine confirmed then to as I think its meant to be the same build date as yours. I dont mind the glass roof, but in all fairness I will probably leave the roof blind closed all the time anyway and when I was in showroom with it closed it looked pretty dark anyway.

its pointless anyway what about motorsport and F1 they will always be using fuels and I cant imagine Lorrys and Ferrys being non diesel Legin T, thanks for heads up about Skoda parts site in CZ I ordered the same front and rear rubber mats with red logo for winter use, good prices to.

yes the days of the 4 speed manual gearbox and manual choke. I agree with you there I dont like driving how I use to, the roads are far to busy now and always traffic jams and roadworks, it was never that bad in the 90's I also dont really want to make the switch to electric cars when we have to.

My first car before that was a Mk3 Black Ford Capri 1.6LS I wish I still had that one! I also had a Mk5 Golf GTD in black, was probably my fave car of all the cars I have owned and I kept that one 10 years.

I did have a Grey Mk 2 VW Golf Gti in the 90s and didnt mind that colour back then. thats a good price for those mats and mud guards, does the car not come with any then? i didnt see them as an option either, I would of thought the mats would be standard?

I went to local Skoda Dealer at weekend as they had a 2024 Monte Carlo in. looked great inside and out, wasnt to keen on the Grey paintwork though, glad I didnt choose that one, attached a couple of photos for you.

yes i can imagine that pearl paint will mark easy, be dreading parking in supermarket car parks. in Hindsight I wish I had paid the £400 extra and gone for the Velvet Red now, probably to late to change now.

Yes I was worried that the pearl black will just blend in to much with the bumpers and mirrors, I like how the roof blends in though, I will probably have the cover back most of the time anyway so direct sun isnt coming in. yes Red brake callipers sounds like a good choice with the 18" alloys

They told me I couldn't have the charging pack as well as the premium winter pack due to the buttons underneath or something clash. I did take the 2 years fixed servicing option to I think it was £169 or something. I live 144 miles from the supplying dealer for my new car and I will be collecting it, I dont trust there driven delivery option and dont want o pay for a transporter.

I only went for the spacesaver spare wheel and the Premium Winter Pack, i did want the charging pack to but you couldnt have it with the Winter pack. I ordered my car through the same broker I used on my last car so found it all very easy and a good price to. I was looking at the tyre sizes on the Monte Carlo and they are 205/45/18 seems to be a not very common size as when you look up new tyres for it you are limited to Goodyears at £169 per tyre! I would of thought they would of used 225/45 as thats what I have had on previous cars and make it handle a bit better, plus loads of range to choose from and can get them for £65 per tyre for a good brand.

Yes I am getting the Monte Carlo myself and the pearl black might be a bit to much as you won't be able to make out the black details, will probably be to much black but hey ho
-
New 24 Scala Ordered today
What colour cars did you guys go for? I went for the pearl black magic one, I did want the velvet red metallic but I did not want to pay the premium!

I still have one free service on my Leon as its on a service plan, its a shame they don't give refunds, I probably won't bother using it now. It was only last serviced in October.

I have been given build week 17 to on my one, I am happy with that as I have a holiday in Scotland in mid May and expect to be doing 1000 miles, so don't really want that straight away on new car.

I am going to have to let my pcp run as I won't be able to afford to pay off it all in one go soon as the pcp starts.
-
New 24 Scala Ordered today
That is not quite true, to get the USB C point behind the rear view mirror you had to buy the charging pack for £350 which I wanted but you could not have it aswell as the Premium winter pack, so I opted for the premium winter pack only.

I placed an order last Monday for the 1.5 Scala Monte Carlo, I went for a PCP agreement to. I was quoted a 15 week lead time

Scala facelift announced August 2023
Yes I did notice that! I'm still not 100% sure I will get a scala, all the reviews of it being not much fun to drive put me off slightly. I am coming from a MK3 Seat Leon 2.0TDI 2016 which I have had from new. I just don't fancy a new Leon with news SEAT might no longer be anymore and the Cupra is to expensive for me.

I am thinking of placing am order on a Scala but can't decide between the Monte Carlo and the SEL, going to wait until the skoda sale on the 9th and see what offers are on.
