sorry thats the only pic i have of the Golden Skip !!! ignore the mug shot :D!!

I like that colour. Look on ebay for coilovers, and i think with the size of the car and wheel arches you need 16's/17's i'd say. 15's might look a little small.

Coilies an BBS LM reps!

smooth/colour code bump strips aswel!

Put some 17 or 18 inch audi replicas, can find them for about 400 - 500 quid.

I love Octavia's!! That is gunna rule!! Didn't realise you could get a 1.4!!

Didn't realise you could get a 1.4!!

Only in Ireland?

And clean the car :p

Dont get Audi rims please! Every other modern vag round our area has them!

i have bora sport alloys on my octavia 20v and they look a treat. i'd get 16's or 17's and then lower it on coilies

best pic i have excuse the awful mini plate and the burnout

ats wheels etc won't fit as your car is 5x100 fit

Hope that helps :)

cheers guys!!! made a change from the usual comments i get from work lol, every 1 takes the piss out of it but i wanna do summat different!!!

i dunno bout audi rims m8, i seen alot of motors with em!! do you really think 15"'s with coilovers would look to small?

oh and yea 1.4 16v 75bhp!!!! not the fastest of motors lol 14.5 sec 0-60mph.. 50mpg!!!! and insurence group 4 :D same engine as in my dad's Lupo :D

ad go 16's dude, nice bit of dish on em too

slammed on its arse 8-)

damn 1.4 in that boat! Must be super slow!!!!

www.jhmbuttco.co.uk for your coilovers. or i think FK/Weitech do a good set but beware cheap knockoffs.

15s are too small! nicest i've seen is a8 wheels but on a gold car they wont work... you want... hmmm

*goes to check!*

www.dubmeister.co.uk says you want:

yea it is but it's such a refined car to drive!! not as entertaining as the Focus but just really easy!!!

what 16" do you reccon then i need names lol !!!

i'd say a nice set of oem golf/bora/audi alloys would be ideal. stick it into ebay i sold my skoda alloys for only 150 quid with new tyres there are bargains to be had! get some and paint them gloss black would look lovely on your car!
