Need advice on rim size
^ ^ I have always run on Dunlop Sport 01's, the car came on them, but at the last change I was offered 225x55x17's, they were cheaper than the 50 profiles, I have never had any qualms about them, I think French roads are maintained to a higher standard than in the UK. When I used to return to the UK over the winter period I always changed to winters, but now here permanently with little or no snow I haven't changed for several years! I think the 55's are a more commonly used size than the 50's

Steering wheel radio control
A little more info, I gave the wheel a second squirt of cleaner, the bar was in a horizontal position, and when I came to try the volume control it was back sticky etc so, i placed said bar in the vertical position and repeated the cleaning, left it overnight and as the froggies would say, et voila it worked, obviously the cleaning liquid has run somewhere else. Here's hoping its a reasonably permanent fix!

Perspex(?) 'A' Frame Black Cover
An update! The technician who installed the screen and broke the offside 'A' frame cover also damaged the offside front corner of the roof lining and the little plastic 'ticket' clip! Been in contact with French Carglass, visited the local depot today, thechief has asked me to get prices for the pieces and also the installation work for the lining, I hope it all comes to fruition.

Best Skoda ever?
^ I agree with JR, I have had a 'lazy' left eye all my life, never caused me a problem,but, as above, oblique angled right hand junctions need a different strategy, ie last minute approach at 90'!
