Don't worry I guess you don't drive it like my mother hers.

 

Thanks. Everyone so far has said they really like the blue colour on the Fabia.

More tyre noise?

Could he slightly wider tyres or the manufacture i guess

Probably. I couldn't hear any more noise myself though.

Could always add more sound deadening in the doors and around the car if it bothered her too much.

The fabia doesnt seem to have much as standard.

Looks great in that colour combo. I'd personally have it with black alloys  .

As for cruise control I use it everywhere, even in 30mph zones, keeps me speeding tickets free

You need to stretch her legs a little, 30miles a week is not healthy for this car I am afraid. Go for a road trip over a weekend, she will love you for that!

I think black alloys look cool and also it hides the break dust but my mother didn't want to spend any more money on options.

I'm just happy she went for the spec she did in the end.

 

I know it needs a good run. If I had my way it would be run in by now.

 

Also the Welsh Black Mountain are on my door step which has got some really nice roads to drive on.

 

Here are some videos of Chris Harris showing what Black Mountain roads are like (sorry no Skoda or VAG content).
