  1. Hi there I have voluntarily terminated my pcp on my 63 plate Citigo Sport and have been given the 11th of Jan as my hand back date, the front tyres are a little close to the legal limit and the MOT is due at the end of Jan, I just wondered how picky the driver is when he picks up the car and checks it over, the car is perfect other than that. I do not want to be given a hefty bill on the day so just wondered if anyone has gone through this process and can advise.
  2. Hi there I purchased a new 1.2 Yeti Elegance about a month ago and all has been good but yesterday I went over a very narrow speed bump with the front wheels and I thought I heard a bang when it bottomed out. The car has been good ever since but I am now worried that the transit clamps may have been left in, can anyone tell me what I need to look for, there seems to be a black castellated ring at the bottom of the strut that the plastic corrugated cover fits over but I can't really see anything else, any help would be gratefully recieved.
  3. Hi all I am looking to buy a new estate on solutions, I was thinking of an Elegance as I can not afford a VRS, I do about 10k a year, I wonder if anyone can suggest the best engine to get and if anyone has managed to bag a good deal lately, thanks for your help.

  5. Are there things I need to know about the PID or anything else?
  6. Hi all after ordering my Sport on 30th September 2013 I will finally pick it up on Saturday, Is there anything I should check when picking it up?
  7. Ordered my Sport on the 30th Sept and had a build date of week 52 given to me today so maybe delivery of mid Jan.
  8. Hi I bought the wheels second hand, and when I fitted them I thought the bolts did not appear to go in as far as when fitted to my old alloys, I will look into the paint issue as the wheels have been re-sprayed. Any ideas where I might get longer bolts from if these are too short?
  9. Hi there, I bought some Audi type alloys and fitted them to my Octavia which had standard alloys. The original wheels were 16in and the new ones are 18in but fitted with lower profile tyres so they fit ok. Where the bolts fit they have numerous holes so they presumably fit different vehicles, unfortunately when I drive about 3-4 miles the bolts come loose, any ideas anyone? I used my original wheel bolts.
  10. Thanks for your help Damian, yes I am on a budget really only want them for looks, do you know if there is a fitting guide on the forums and could you quote me a price please, cheers Martyn.
  11. thanks for your help, I went on the dpmperformance website and found their cheap coilovers JOM I think, does anyone have any experience of these? I am not intending to use these for performance, just to enhance the look of the car. i don't have any photos as yet but will try to get some this weekend
  12. I have a 57 plate 1.9 tdi elegance for which I have just purchased a set of 18 x 8j wheels fitted with 225 40 tyres, i was wanting to know how far I could lower the car using springs so that they look better on the car. I don't want to go mad just make it look good.
  13. A big thanks to Cheryl at Shark and the others on the forum, I phoned yesterday and paid my money can't wait to get mine done, thanks again. P.S Is there anything I need to do to the engine before the remap, I have an Octavia 1.9 tdi 57 reg. I know this is on the wrong thread but just querying, cheers.
  14. Sorry about being late but how much for a stage 1 remap for an Octavia 1.9 tdi 57 reg and could I please be included on the list cheers Martyn
  15. I have a 57 reg octavia 1.9 tdi and I want to know what size bigger alloy wheels and tyres I can fit to it to make it look better without having to go down the route of lowering the suspension thanks for all assistance.
  16. Did they change the brake fluid as I was told it had to changed after 2 years.
  17. I have now had my 54 plate Fabia VRS for a year and it is due a service, I have been quoted
