Looking good, glad you got the comet wheels though, look better with that colour in my opinion. My estate version looks a good deal longer though there is not really much in it (about 10" if I recall). Enjoy, I still have a big grin every time I drive mine :happy: .

Had a Felicia 1.9D GLi back in 1997 in the same colour as yours, our Fabia is orange which is a few shades lighter.

The new Fabia on order is steel grey which is really a blue which is a similar shade to the Favorite we had in 1987.

If we really go with the colour thing my Passat is the same colour as the first Skoda I went in. A white 120 Super Estelle like this one

It was my uncles who swapped it for a Rapid with 4 headlights and multiple intermittant wiper settings, same colour as this one.

Anyway, hope you enjoy your new Elegance, we have a long wait for ours.

The Fabia in stock in Germany had Comet wheels but I had a notion to change them for Elba? and there was a deal in place...but on seeing the car with its Comets I had a change of mind..as they look more the business than they did in the brochure...except they got dirty today.... :( ;)

I have to return to have mudflaps fitted as they got missed...and I need to add some rubber floor mats due to my sometimes muddy boots...the key is in the user name. ;)

Wow, they've even got the new badge in that pic...!

...and the car that started the move to Skoda...my former work colleagues ex Motability? L reg Favourite 1.3 Qualitaire...seen here along with my old Felicia...both with a trailer load of Horse Chestnut logs...

My Felicia was only days old then and was across the park moving logs. :blush:

Well, you're not expecting to pull in a Skoda are you?

Hi this takes me back, I had these 2 and estelles rapid and the 120l also they were fantastic, especially the estelles with the engines in the back so easy to watch after,I used to put the grease in the thimble to grease the water pump I think
