Decided to take the plunge and change the wheels on the Elegance estate this morning

New ones are ET35 instead of the ET43 of the originals, and will be a joy to clean in comparison

Decided to stick with 16s to keep the ride quality

Shame the Skoda badges didn't fit, but I can live with that

I am deeply shocked that they are not gold.

Looks good though.

AH snowy...so you are going with the Tin Tin theme ...is it getting a ginger top :think:

Looks very smart indeed. Could do with some of this though:

Was wondering who would be the first

I never realised Fabia II was this slow

Slow snow is the new fast don't you know.

Try a Greenline, that thing'll feel like a rocket ship

slow?

ha ha, try a drag race against my 1.6 Polo, it will show you what slow really is!
