Yes I do,but the Tiguan will allow me to tow a bigger caravan.

Absolutely not a thing, was a great car. Know it will use more fuel but that's about it.

I'm up in Fiddich Drive Murieston. Bob

Should have said I need a more powerful and heavier car. Bob

For sale a set of 4 steel winter wheels only used last winter and done about 2000m. The tyres are Nokian WR D3 215/60 R16 XL. The wheels are Skoda/VW 16x7 fit Yeti , looking for £400 collected from West Lothian or meet somewhere. Bob

Problem is I have no idea the spare is heavy and bulky , the bars are the same. The rest shouldn't cost too much. Bob

I'm just about to change my Yeti for a Tiguan, for various reasons I need a bigger car. As a result I've got a few bits I'm selling, see link. Bob http://www.briskoda.net/forums/topic/288619-yeti-stuff-for-sale/ Also selling winter wheels. http://www.briskoda.net/forums/topic/288658-winter-wheels-for-sale/

Due to a change of car the following is surplus. For sale a set of genuine Skoda Yeti roof bars in VGC. £100 ono.sold Genuine " net program" consisting of 3 nets to fit the boot £20.sold Genuine Yeti Rubber floor mats £20. sold Spare wheel and toolkit with storage boxes £150.sold Front and rear mud flaps used but in VGC £20.sold. Would prefer buyer collects from West Lothian but prepared to post at cost. Bob

Spoke to the dealer who fitted the tow bar and they quoted £150 to remove the tow bar and refit it into another car. Not bad if I get another Yeti. Bob

Still got all the bits, I bought the spare wheel as a kit.

Never thought about the recoding.

I'm thinking of changing my car. When I got it the local dealer fitted a Westfalia detachable towbar it cost me £940 fitted. I want to salvage some of this cost. My question is how easy would it be to get the dealer to remove it and what could I expect selling it on. Also what does a spare wheel and tools go for second hand. thanks bob

For what's worth having towed a caravan for over 17 years too, I'm reluctant to go over 85%. I know this limits my car /caravan choice. I've seen many other outfits overtake me when travelling at the speed limit which on the surface look a poor match, but that's their choice. I have also found the Yeti more stable to tow than either a Passat or a Bora because of the short overhang. Bob

Got the instructions, now need the bolts. Dealer said they come in packs of 4 and are £10 plus vat !!!!!!!!!!!!!!. Any got any spare? Bob

Just got myself a set of yeti roof bars. Now i need copy of the instructions and fixing bolts. can anyone help?

I would be interested Bob

I've got one but mines been recoded. Bob

What card is this?

Yes because they have "summer" tyres on and I want to save my steel wheels with winter tyres for next year. First time with winter tyres so we'll see how it goes and it will all depend on how many negative comments I get about my car with " cheapo wheels". May sell them and get all weather tyres on the alloys. Bob

I got my genuine new Skoda steel wheels for £80 from a kind member of this forum, so it was an easy choice.

.I agree they would.

In winter is it better to drive a Yeti with steel wheels and winter tyres or Alloys with "summer " tyres?

Still looks like a 20k car even with the steel wheels. Bob
