  • Wife goes to get something from the garage, and comes back...   Mrs: "There seems to be a black Roomster on the drive" Mr: "Yes, I got it today" Mrs: "It's a new one isn't it?" Mr: "Yes" Mrs: "T

  • So anyway, I used the Roomster on Saturday to pick the Wife and two children up from Heathrow. They have not seen the car before...   On the way back to the car park my 5 year old son asks what car

It's here.

It's a Roomster.

It's Black.

Drives well.

Not bad spec.

Would have liked Maxi-Dot, Bluetooth and Cruise Control though.

Really like the seats.

Has it got a 1.8Tsi in it yet?

Nice Richard, agree on the spec those little extras are nice. Does look better than I thought though think I have to see it in the flesh to be sold on the rear windows or not... if you know what I mean.

 

I do know what you mean, they are a bit odd.

But on a darker colour they are less of a stand out feature.

 

Doors are a bit slab sided too, especially without the rear door having a handle on the panel.

I'm already wondering if adding rubbing strips would break it up a bit.

 

Shame really on the spec because the Fabia Black Edition gets Maxi-Dot and Bluetooth.

 

Nice and light inside with the glass roof too.

Was going to offer you the bump strips from my Fabia but where it's poverty spec there aren't any :dull:

Yes the black is what is selling it to me to be honest. And yes I think Skoda have missed a step with doing that because that to me would be the finishing touches to the car.

 

That glass roof is nice I have a couple of those with our Passat Estates and they're light in the back too and just gives it that illusion of more space than it is.

Be interested to see the seats Richard, the ones in my scout are not the most supportive, particularly for track!!

Are the seats the same as the Mk2 Fabia vRS and Montecarlo's?

 

I really rated the seats in my Fabia lovely support and still very comfy, great on track and in all honesty, more comfy than the Pleather and Alcantara one's in the Superb. 

Pleasure as always Richard...... you cleaned it yet  ;) 

 

Mark, yes the seats are those from the Monte, and very nice indeed they looked  :thumbup: 

 

Just.....

 

Needs.......

 

Climate.....

 

Control.......

 

And.......

Bloody......

You'd think the heated window elements would make a good guide.

New one please!

Yes, monte Carlo seats and very nice they are.

 

Best thing about the mk2 Fabia VRS was the seats and they are nice.

It's the Monte ones with white.

The gearstick, handbrake and steering wheel have RED stitching so you can really see why they put the WHITE Monte seats instead of the RED ones... :no:

 

Another Skoda UK brainwave...

At this rate I'm going to need a bigger drive.

Yes, it's Climatronic and Maxi-Dot that you can't.

That aircraft carriers still for sale AFAIK. Just sayin' :notme:

Did the wife and kids recognise you or just walk straight past :wonder:

bloke turns up in a new Skoda; 'oh, that must be dad' :D

Yes, that's pretty much it.

Taylor popped in one day and beat me home.

My Wife looked out of the window, saw the Citigo with a Skoda badge and just assumed it was me.

Even though she'd never seen the car before.

:rofl:

Got to pick the wife and children up on the way home.

Should be interesting as they don't even know about it. :)

 

Or maybe not that interesting.

 

"what's that?"

"It's a Roomster"

"oh", gets in the car.

No surprise at it being a brand new car? You sir are a lucky man for not being questioned

She couldn't care less.

I have tried to shock, but I've been rumbled.

Lucky my ex just argued when I bought a Clio! Not like it's an expensive or decent car either! Thank god that's gone

Your seats were quite comical Barrie :D I was giggling like anything after passenger laps at Blyton

That's because you didn't take a tank home :D
