Hello everybody. Does somebody know if an octavia 2 4x4 can be changed to a scout? I mean if front and back bumpers will fit? And other body parts? Like wings ornaments? Suspension is the same with one at an octavia 4x4? Thanks

The Scout uses bigger outside diameter tyres, so things like speedo and gearing are likely to be different.

 

Do you have an increased ride height Octavia MK2 4WD?

 

Maybe put up a photo of the white build code label in the spare wheel well area under the carpet.

 

As you can see below, build code 2UA means you have standard ride height, build code 2UB means you have increased ride height/rough-road design, and build code 2UC means you have sports/lowered suspension.

2UA = Standard design
2UB = Rough-road design
2UC = Sports version
