Am I understanding this correctly? As standard the vRS does NOT come with the little display in the middle of your instrument cluster that tells you when your doors are open/what the trip computer is up to?

Also, what do you get with the Jumbo/Rear electric windows package?

The skoda webiste sure aint clear on these things!!

It does come with an LCD display for the trip computer, but the maxidot upgrade is a larger, flasher version that has other facilities. Since it is only £90, I would recommend it.

The comfort pack you refer to gives you dual digital climate control as well as the jumbo box and rear electric windows. The jumbo box is a arm rest really, as the jumbo bit is only big enough strorage for a single can of coke.

Both those options are essential imho. Maxidot is a cleverer version of the standard trip computer but with a lot more functionality and the Dual Zone Climate/Jumbo Box/Electric Windows option just finishes the interior off nicely

ahhh, I see!

Yeah, wouldn't buy one without the jumbo pack!

Or cruise...!

I've chosen the following:-

1. Maxi-dot

2. Cruise control

3. Jumbo

4. 18" alloys

I had Maxidot, Jumbo, 18" alloys but went with Xenons and rear parking sensors.

I think the Jumbo pack and 18" alloys are fitted by just about everyone, its a nice little earner there for Skoda.

I saved 300 or so notes though by choosing red and being different to all the blue Skuds I see around.

I would agree just about everyone gets the electric pack which includes the jumbo box, dual zone climate control and 'leccy rear windows, likewise the 18's. I got the maxi dot by default and though I wasn't fussed at the time, am now glad I did

My car has not one single option! It's even a solid colour.

At the end of the day I wanted a 200bhp family car for minimal outlay (

I am without the Jumbo to

But mine was pre-built and had the all important (for me) Xenons and 18's and was in Race Blue, I paid well under

I'm aiming for;

1. Xenons

2. Cruise control

3. Rear parking sensor

4. Heated seats

5. 18s - perhaps

I'm not getting the Climate/Jumbo as IMHO the jumbo box gets in the way of my left elbow when changing gear/using the handbrake and I am undecided on the 18s.

The factory 18s are the same 'Zenith' style as the standard 17s so you don't really notice them too much and £450 for these is a bit costly as I reckon the larger wheels/tyres can only cost max £200 over the 17s - £250 profit to Skoda.

My dealer has put the accessory 'B14' style 18s on two of his demos and they look FANTASTIC; there is a benefit of going with the B14 as well. I will be able to get my dealer to fit the tyres I want and not the noisy Contis that come out of the factory.

Finally, I'm aiming for Corrida Red.
