(Ambiente I think), will know for sure tomoro, but was wondering if its possible to get alloys for this car?? I hate the plain hubs on it now, and since im keeping the car longterm would like to improve looks!! Thanks for advice

any mk1 octavia alloys should fit i would have thought

forgot to say, with different tyres any fabia alloys will also fit.

you could also fit alloys from the following :-

mk1 Audi A3

mk1 Seat leon

Bora

mk4 Golf

mk1 TT

Seat Toledo

probably more but thats off the top of my head

Try local breakers as they may have a higher spec model i.e. an SLX with the factory alloys on that would improve it greatly for a fraction of aftermarket wheels

Ok, now the difficult question - the price?? What can I expect to pay?? Nothing fancy just bog standard, managable - ie I can shine them up type!!!

anything really, might find a set on ebay for £20 but i wouldn't pay more than about £200 with half decent tyres myself unless going for 16-17 inch wheels

there's a set of fabia vRS wheels on ebay for £200 at the moment, i'm still looking though

or there's these
