  1. Yeah, I followed the car to see their general location. I was hoping she'd pull up near some shops so I could ask about it (without it looking remotely creepy, lol). Not looking forward the next expansion, my PD130 will have to go too. I might just store it away somewhere.
  2. I'm currenlty on the look out for one myself! That's it! I posted it on the last page. Do you know the SE number?
  3. Saying that, I saw an older lady drive a SE VRS Fabia in Selsdon a couple months back. You seen it around?
  4. The MY51VRS? No, that's someone elses. It's been there for some time and I drive past it often. You'll know when you see mine, it has Xenons and washer gets on the front bumper.
  5. Yeah, don't do what I did and dig out a loom for 4 hours from a mates L&K! 😆 I'd like the cloth ones personally and to get the middle part retrimmed to match the rest of the interior. As much as I like mine, I'm not a massive fan of leather.
  6. On the button I reckon, as long as the battery have been charged. I topped up both of my batteries with a full charge overnight in preparation for this cold weather.
  7. That really wouldn't take a lot to get another years ticket. The other stuff (advisories) can be done over time.
  8. Just seen 971 seats which was missing off the list.
  9. Get any side of the vent from an Octavia and just swap out the fins. 👍ðŸŧ
  10. Ah it’s a shame, I hope the estate is taken by your family member. If not, get in contact with me and I might take it off your hands.
  11. 742 has been found. NOW BREAKING, SKODA FABIA MK1 VRS SPECIAL EDITION PD130 IN 8X BLUE, SPECIAL EDITION NUMBER 742 *LOW MILES*. ENGINE CODE BLT GEARBOX CODE JNC BREAKING FULL CAR AT CLEVELAND AUTO RECYCLERS SKELETON INDUSTRIAL ESTATE SKELTON IN CLEVELAND SALTBURN BY THE SEA TS12 2LQ
  12. This should do. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/141898800777 I use the same company for their locking modules. Obviously, double check the listing to make sure it is correct for the door you want. You will need to swap the motor over to this unit, if it still works.
  13. If they did a black version, I might have considered it. But, as most of these plastic parts have lasted 15 odd years, they haven't done bad! Let us know how you get on fitting all of these.
  14. You’ll get a lot of replies. But, a lot is use the NGK spark plugs which are then gapped correctly in accordance to whether you are mapped or not. I change them every 10k or 1 year, which ever comes first. Other will suggest the OEM platinum one that do 20k+ miles.
  15. Welcome aboard to the community! We'll keep a look out for you as we're local.
  16. As above, the best would be the L&K interior. However, the seats are horrid. If you want decent leather seats, I'd recommend the Recaro Heated Leathers from a MK4 Golf. I ripped out the L&K seats and upgraded.
  17. I remember trying to tell people this online, but they weren't having it... That was until they ran them at night. 😂
  18. On a vRS they were a very expensive option. I think they were around an ÂĢ800 optional extra. And, decent bulbs are around ÂĢ70-ÂĢ100 EACH! Mine came factory, but it took forever to find one. As for retrofitting them, yes it can be done and you'll need some loom adaptors from KUFTEC. They're around 60 euros. The xenon units are around ÂĢ150/ÂĢ200 for a pair, sometimes more. It's a lot of money to chuck at lights. But, as stated above, you need to check your laws. The cars with xenons auto adjust by leveling sensors on the suspension arms. Without them, you'll end up blinding people with a back end heavy car (if you've got stuff in the boot).
  19. 210 found and added to the list. Ad: Skoda fabia vrs se 159k 1 key Not your usual bodged and ragged fabia.

  20. Was behind an SE on Sunday in Selsdon, followed it to find an old lady driving it. Reg was KK07 *** (94k miles) - I hope to see it again to leave a note for her, should she wish to sell. Extremely clean.
  21. Saying nothing at all! ðŸĪŠ Great job fitting it that. This is my next thing to do on one of mine.
  22. Already done, as I noticed the title. Correct, there's very little difference in the two. I have all the ratios on my computer, but some people just won't have it and believe in the 6-speed better. I have no idea if the box is stronger to cope with more power, but the AUQ can still output 300lbft... EDIT. Found it -
  23. Glad you're on the way to getting this fixed.
