Fluff, mate..... When did you buy a Popemobile?

Definately looks good lowered though I think coilovers, rear arb, rear tints, and anthracite wheels.

How long before you have owned one of every modern Skoda?

I'm working on it mate The popemobile really suit's the family, much better than the octy did, and I really did not like the last octy all that much to be honest.

I steal the wife's kung fu panda when I can, and she will get the roomy as a hand me down in the next 18 months - 2 years and the panda will probably be moving on .

It does mate, in real terms it's up about 40BHP on it's "before" figures and around 80ish NM.

It now feels like a peppy slightly top heavy fabia vRS ....... but that will be getting addressed as well

Not yet mate, I am sure Decron modded a standard set to go on. I'm not sure about the rallyflapz, I think the roomy may be to tall style wise, I would be happy to speak to Paul and get the ball rolling though as they are local to me and it's no problem to go up and get measured up.

What sort of interest would there be though?

Re: So, what do you think......

Be keen on a set that tone in with the lower panels of the Scout ...

... think the rally style in red might be a bit glaring on the Candy White Scout!

Yup; 'Anthracite' probably; or as mine is Ocean Blue I could try blue flaps.
