What are Skoda Dealers like ?

I pick my new Fabia VRS up on Tuesday or wednesday do you reckon the dealer will mind or charge for that matter if i ask them to remove the black side strips and badges off the back of the car ? Also how have people found them in general, im getting mine from Horners in Bury and them seem to be very nice guys . Does the fabia have any cup holders , if so what are they like . Polo or Ibiza ?
Cheers

Yeah course i have but i forgot to have proper look inside. I bough the car while i was with the girlfriend and shes not into cars one bit so i thought i'd be quick with the sale ! I usually know a car inside and out before i buy one but i had to be quick buying this car cause it was on offer and it was the last one they had !

No cup holders, other than the grooves in the glove box I'm afraid. Do a search on here though for a guide on how to fit one in the slot to the left of the radio. As for dealers, check out the reviews section of the site and you should find people's opinions on Horners. Of the 3 Skoda dealers I've encountered, 2 have been fantastic and one has been dire.

I think dealers are a personal preference. Some people like 100% service whereas other people like to be left alone. I've had experience of 2 and one was fantastic (where I bought the car) and the other was ok (where I live). Pop in, you can usually tell within a couple of minutes whether they're ok or not.
