Off the top of my head there both roughly the same width and if both cars use roof rails for the mounts they should fit (seeing as rail fitting bars are more or less a universal clamp)

no rough stuff, peterborough is a series of dual carrigeways joined by lots of roundabouts, i was leaning towards the RS because i was presuming its probably got a more sporty suspension setup

Indeed i was initially put off by the higher than standard suspension on the 4X4

Lol the thing is im probably moving a lot closer to my works so it wont get my than 5k a year on it if it had been a lower spec 1.8t i would be tuning it but with an RS it will be staying completely standard. What other tell tale signs will i be looking at on an irish spec model?

Right looking at the insurance again it looks as though the RS is within my reach. For my budget though 6k ill be looking at a 100k or there abouts model, now this doesnt bother me to much since i know most cars will be more than able to manage this (if theyve been well looked after) but what sort of things should have be done by this point in the cars life and what will i be looking at that might need to be done soon?

Going from a my99 Sport (NA) looking at a 1.8T pereferably not in the VRS version (insurance is a bit steep lol)

No Octavia yet, ive been looking to sell my current scooby and get something a bit cheaper to reduce my car loan but a bit quicker. Im looking for a 1.8T probably in elegance spec, ive been looking for them online ive found a lot of slxi and glxi models is this an earlier model desegnation? can someone give me a hand decoding this? also i live in the peterbough area can someone recomend a good place for servicing, i dont want to have to use Wings as paul wing is an absolute **** and it will be a cold day in hell before i give him any money! anything else i should be looking out for on the 1.8t models?

Hi all im just taking a wee peek over here looking for a replacement for my scooby. Will
