re the Timing Belt issue same thing happened to my wife in her Old Astra - as Belt was under 12 mi=onths old and had done so few miles should be cobered by either the Dealer or (Garage) or even Skoda as you had done everything correctly - vauxhall paid for the engine rebuild on the wifes car cambelt was 11 months old dont let them fob you off it should not have broken after so few miles and time

I hope a new Diesel will come out as I love my VRS mk1 - all that lovely Power and Torque - and good MPG on a long run to - dont they realise that this is what made the VRS great

Hi Minardi fan here living in Cardiff tried to attend a meet last year but no one seemed to turn up Work Shifts so sometimes a Problem but if Local wil try and attend

Had to have my Fabia Vrs Serviced a Griffin mill for the first time having changed Jobs and this Being alot nearer to work rather than with the nice people at capitol skoda newport All seems O K serviced quickly and efficiently. Only thing was have Phoned me 3 Times at home to check wether or not I was Happy also no Free valet as at capitol Newport Coffee of Good Quality while |I waited

I would reccomend buying the VRS and having a rear anti roll bar fitted the car becomes very chuckable then

Don't like the Front at all looks very cheap asianish Hope they sort it out on the VRS I agree that the lights are wrong and the nose is to curvy back end OK and so is side profile until you get to the bonnet What were they thinking OFF

Well I concur with everybody else Just had 1st service done on my furby VRS with these guys rather than White Dove where I bought the Car having read the posts Can't fault them Gave me good and precise directions as I didnt have a clue where they were Arrived at 8.30am to a nice cup of coffee saw my baby taken away to be pampered almost immediatley - offered a courtesy car - which I didn't need She came back all washed - dried and Hoovered - after 1.5 hours These are nice people

I know how you feel I just Love that Power when my wife lets me drive it

Schumi still has a question mark against his greatness as he has never had to race against a team mate senna/Prost, Team orders allways favoured him I still remember that eddie irvine would have beaten Hakkinen had he not pulled over for the German earlier in the year before the Broken Leg - Was Eddie ever as good as Hakkinen I don't think so I wanted to see Either Schumi Alonso At Mclaren or Raikkonen Schumi at Ferrari for next year to proove hos greatness ps Please Ron sign Hamilton for next year

No Giancarlo Minardi the founder of the eponymous Team is now running a F3000 team in the international series which actually got a 1 2 at Silverstone the other week which I saw - the first for a minardi in 25 years all most as long as Jenson button had to wait for his first win

Only 3 months old the only Yellow Vrs in cardiff at present

Hi I am The minardifan Proud owner of a new Yellow VRS My wifw chose the colour I wasn't sure but now am happy as it is easy to find in the Car Parks at Silverstone Main hobbies as by the my nom de Plume is Motor Sport but now have a new hobby called putting boy racers in there place when driving home from work late at night it is such fun to here there little engines trying to keep up :thumbup:

VRS I am the wrong side of 40 as is my wife so enjoy having a fast car with cheap insurance PS no points on my licence either (yet) this will probably change with my ownership remember ther are old drivers and there are bold drivers but there are no old bold drivers bye:thumbup:
