octy vrs options

postmanpat · 05-05-2006, 19:20

Thinking of making purchase as previously stated, options I have on list are:

Dual zone etc
Rear Parking senses
Cruise
Maxidot

So question is are standard lights better than mk i or are zennons a must have? and I realise 18" wheels look better but do they compromise ride, handling?

Thanks for your thoughts.

Assuming the tire pressures are set correct, then IMHO 18" don't compromise low speed ride because the standard suspension is as soft as the mark 1. Pretty noisy though.

Lights don't seem any better or worse than the mk1s.

I dont find Noise from 18" Alloys a problem although at extereme lock they rub mud flaps - Still go for them! I got Cruise, Alloys, Dual Zone and Parking Sensors
