I`ve got running boards fitted that i got from superskoda and would also agree they were a good company to deal with.The boards don`t stick out too much and no dirty troosers yet

will do

Well Dinski between your story and my drinking of wine it doesn`t seem so bad now.I had a quick look at the door earlier and it had just caught the edge of the door and only a tiny scuff that`s hardly noticeable.The C on the boot on the other hand seems quite deep but will see if a proper detail will polish it out as i don`t think it is down to the metal.My post was ment to be about my initial impressions of the car and it ended up about my bad luck but always someone worse off so i am just going to try to enjoy the car

I picked up my Yeti 1.8 elegance on Wednesday.It`s silver on a 61 plate with 8000 miles and it`s my first experience with Skoda although i`ve had a few VW so same thing i guess.I initially drove 50 miles to see the car and for a test drive but when i arrived conditions were poor due to a blizzard of snow so agreed a deal on the car without driving it but having read many reviews i knew it would be fine.Just have to convince the wife now after the past three cars being auto that going back to a manual was the right thing to do.Certainly for me but she still hasn`t driven it yet.I ordered some Conti 830s on the Friday and they arrived on Tuesday,well 3 of them arrived with the one that was missing turned up on Friday and now all fitted.Seems that somebody was keen to try out their artistic skills last night and carved the letter C on the back of the car which was nice of them.And to top it all off on a journey to my favourite vino shop today after parking my 9 year old daughter opened her door onto a signpost outside said wineshop So is this car jinxed or am i just unlucky

I had a spring break on my bmw x3 that was picked up at the mot but only as an advisory and not a fail as apparently it was still seated whatever that means.

Thanks for the reply cheezemonkhai.No snow here at the moment so tarmac option it`ll be.Just wasn`t sure how much grip they would have from new but i will take it easy.

Hi newbie here and newbie to winter tyres.I am picking up my new to me yeti on Wednesday and will be fitting some conti 830`s and wondering if there is a running in period with winter tyres.Cheers

Thanks for the welcome.Cant believe i`ve waited this long to get one.Great value for money cars
