Please don't tell me you paid nearly £100 to swap a headlight

I quite like the seats especially being the 'sports seats' but I had to have a red car otherwise it does look odd I've even got used to the red centre console.

Actually I think I have came across this link before, massive fan of supersprint but £650 for a back box is ridiculous

I was going to mention that but he might have a model with the darker headlights.. such as the SE L and colour edition. and tbh id rather not have the pano roof, I can imagine it adds some weight! But my little boy loves it We could also mention the MC has the sports seats as standard along with all the other no cost extras It was a MC or nothing for me. I've came from a golf gti and golf r32 so i had to have something with a sporty edge even if it has a 1.2 engine to make it bearable!

You're looking at 1,735 euros for front splitter, rear diffuser, side skirts, spoiler, wing mirrors, grille and wheels. I'm glad i just bought monte carlo!

thanks for the links, id love to find a sports cat/de-cat downpipe and a decent exhaust sytem. Seen some ebay specials but not overly sure on them I'd also like to see some brake upgrades.. Im assuming audi s1 brakes would be straight fitment

you would really think after this many problems they'd make sure they did a good job

i think it may only be Monte Carlos that come with them. My MC is a 16 plate

Bit late to the party, Ive had one on my drive for 8 months lol

So this morning I was looking out the window trying to figure out whose car alarm was going off. Turned out it was mine! I had only just moved it from the road on to the driveway. I didn't think it was mine as the indicators weren't flashing. Tried to unlock the car with my key..didn't work... spare key also didn't work. Alarm kept stopping and starting, called up Skoda assistance and they're sending out someone from VW between 4-6pm. I could've had the AA come out sooner but as the alarm has stopped going off I'd rather wait. Any one else had this issue? My car is a 16 plate Fabia Monte Carlo estate.

I was emailing awesomegti a few months back and their response was "In all honesty, these engines are good to go. We wouldn’t recommend messing around with the dump valve on these as they don’t seem to help in any way – If anything slightly reduce the power at the lower end between gears. The induction kits don’t really do a great deal more than making a bit of extra noise on these ones too"

+1 on wanting to hear it. Before I bought my monte i was looking at the forge dump valve and induction kit before getting a remap. But with some investigation the dump valve may result in a power loss

Probably a lot more than the £170 it cost as an extra

I was sceptical amount Racechip but after seeing them on Shmee150's youtube channel I'm more likely to get one, I'd probably just get the cheapest box which gives about 21bhp, which is about 100 euros cheaper than the 2 box which gives 28bhp, i think ill do without the extra 7bhp and save 100 euros

I wouldn't even worry about it. My excess mileage charge is about 4p... over 3k miles that would come out at £120
