****SCAMMER SKOT RAVEN UPDATE****
PaulBVrs replied to lumpzta's topic in Skoda Octavia Mk I (1996-2004)
Are police aware of this update? What have they said? Have they contacted him and this is why he is saying it? -
So today I got the doorcards done. Started masking them up and the tape wouldn't stick no matter what I tried! I didn't have much time so didn't want to faf about taking door cards off, so in the end I just sprayed the stuff on and wiped the overspray off! It actually worked quite well and pleased with the results... This is the stuff I used. The sprayer stopped working after the first door and I started getting angry. Managed to get it working again though....1 tin was just about enough to do the 4 doors!! Also shined the tailpipe up...looked like it had been sprayed black?? Anyway it looked rubbish, looks better now. I've also now got to get a new wing mirror glass as some knobhead hit mine whilst mine was parked up and popped the glass straight out, all over the road!

Cheers guys. I'll have a look at the Lamin-x. Got new front indicators to go on as a clip on one of them is broken, so might do it at the same time. Few bits of touching up that need doing and a good t-cut and polish but the weather is so **** there's no point atm. Will need new tyres soon too but prob wait till the new year and get the wheels done then at the same time. Girardi - I'm Chandlers Ford, near Eastleigh.

Hi everyone, just a little introduction to my newly acquired Mk1 Vrs wagon...It's a bit of a change from what I've owned in the past, but with an 8 month old little boy, the need for something a bit more practical arose. I still wanted something with a bit of poke that I could have a bit of fun in, without spending much more than a couple of grand. So this seemed to fit the bill, and to be honest I am really liking it. It's had a few bits done to it already and running about 220bhp. It's quicker than I thought it would be and handles really quite well. There's a few bits I want to do, nothing major....possibly get the wheels refurbed in black and I've just got some black upholstery paint for the door cards to continue the black theme. I also need to sort the numberplate situation out as it annoys me hanging over the side like it does, but I'm reluctant to put it in the middle, in front of the intercooler?! Here's some pics of how it stands at the moment... I've been thinking about changing the wheels for 17" Spiders in black but they're hard to find and seem expensive so might stick with the Nuvolari reps as I do like them on the Octavia. Anyway, I will update when bits are done. Any thoughts/suggestions welcome. :-)

These still available? -
Hi all, Just become the owner of an '05 Octavia VRS wagon. It's been fettled slightly, I'll get some pics up in due course. It's a bit of a change from the norm for me, having come from a rear wheel drive, Japanese or BMW background, but I'm at that stage where I needed something sensible/spacious but still relatively fun, and this seems to tick those boxes!
