    Do you mean the chrome boot strip? I was thinking more of a rubber flap - check out number 2 on page 17. But the ones I've seen are a heavy rubber that flips over before you put anything into the boot.

    The very reason I bought the RS Wagon again when I came to Oz.

    Had one and before that a couple of MKV Gtis in the UK.

    You can have a Gti and one kid and still go away on trips but with two young kids it is a bit of a squeeze. No such worries with the RS wagon - I have never managed to fill the boot!

    Anyone with a Gti who lover it and is only getting rid of it due to space needs an RS wagon. 8/10th GTI with all the space you need.

    Skoda Australia should market the rs in that way.

    The catalogue has changed since I posted the link (been updated) . The product I meant was

    Rear bumper cover foil
    for Octavia (KDX 610 001);
    for Octavia Combi (KDX 620 001)

    It's now on page 19 (as printed on the paper catalogue, bottom right of the screen)

    I asked about this already, and Skoda Au has not made it available for Australia as yet. I actually asked about a lot of the accessories, and most were not available, including a second bag hook for the liftback.

    This was just after I got my car in May. I'm hoping that this has change...

    AFIAK the second hook is just the first one turned 180 degrees.
    if Skoda Australia won't play ball NZ is far away and mail in inexpenive or there is always the UK which is cheaper but shipping costs may be higher.

    This has been my experience as well. I wanted a fitted boot dish. It took over a month a get one in. I would have bought from Europe but the site of the dish meant shipping costs were prohibitive.

    For what its worth I have a rubber mat from supercheap under my boot dish. I left a bit of the rubber mat sticking out and I can fold it over the tailgate if required.

    Thanks Kiwi. I must be blind. It's not quite what I'm after. I was thinking something that flips over the whole arangment so I don't gouge the bumper or plastic boot lining. I think if thats the oficial stuff, I might go to clarke rubber and see if I can get something really sturdy that I can cut however I want. It'll look a bit bodgy, but its better than a 30 kilo cricket bag smashing into it.

    I jusr meant that Skoda are not stocking a lot of these accessories. I know the left hand side hook is the same as the right hand side one. It's the lack of availability that is a downer...

    Will probably get it from Sg, next time I'm there
