Check out hatchbag.co.uk for a boot liner.  Not the cheapest but they are amazing.  I have one on the way for my Superb

I've had a look there, but they seem to be full coverage,  which i can imagine is brilliant if you have a dog, but i just need it for when i put wet muddy kids stuff in it to save thr carpet.

It fits in the boot floor but also covers the rear seats when folded down , handy for trip to the to

 plus a section with pulls over the top of the bumper when hatch open

Is that the genuine Skoda folding one? I saw the do a double sided rubber liner, and a folding one. The folding one seems pretty handy  is it also rubber?

That's exactly why we are getting one

 

They do boot liners too, but more expensive than standard Skoda ones

Just tested the ACC for the first time. Brilliant 

Got the tunnel cover, tablet holder and reversible boot mat today. Should get the mud flaps on tomorrow

Re winter tyres/wheels what ballpark figure are you looking at and any recommendations?

Purchase a small cable for my phone.

 

Installed front and rear mud flaps.

Fitted our custom boot liner from hatchbag.co.uk

 

Tempted by the mud flaps too

I've got a set of mud flaps waiting for when mine arrives. They look lovely on yours @WeeDee

When I got the packet, i was a bit dubious. Thought they would stand out a mile away against the dragon green, but they are barely noticeable. 

Put the winter boots on:

 

Was going to give it a long over due clean but it as you might be able to see it's rather damp :(

Love them! I've got a set waiting to go on mine once I've picked it up. Has the ride changed much?

Let gizmo work his magic on it & gave it another clean.

@boydeee

Quieter and plusher at the moment, had a small wheel spin today so once i get them scrubbed in a bit i will comment further.

Excellent. Cheers for the info 

@Bud Sorry if it missed it elsewhere but what style and size are those wheels please?

 

tia

They are A*** 17"

 

Bought on eBay incl winter tyres Dunlop SP3, 225/50/R17, not quite the exact size but.  

 

Needed to buy some spigot shims to adapt the from the 57mm to 66mm centre bore but they are 5*112

 

There are some similar still there, and a single wheel here.

 

Was considering buying cheap used probably,  damaged and refurbing but got lucky

Had a dash cam fitted, got a free health check and valet too thrown in

Finally picked up my SEL 272! Just back from the 300 mile trip back up the road. What can I say other than wow! What a fantastic car in every way 

 

@Chas51 It's worth the wait!

At last! Enjoy! Still really pleased with mine every time I drive it, and I’ve had it 2 years now.

Changed the reversing bulp to LED 35W instead of 21W
However, is someone know if it possible to remove the thing in the drawed frame?

Thank you sir! 

It'll fly past. The drive is sublime. Effortless. 2k rpm at 70mph. My Honda was at 3.5k!

Yea just what I was going to say. Mine is closer to 2500 at 70 with the 6 speed. Should help the fuel economy significantly on a motorway run.
