  1. Thought i would post mine up few people might know it. My first car bought it from a main dealer a week after passing my test in October 2016 so my first drive in a car on my own was driving it back from Southampton to Glasgow with a couple of stop offs on the way. The car was the perfect spec, 2014 model with Maxidot, Amusden + , Red Seats, Underseat storage, Multi function steering wheel, Rear Parking sensors,ESP and Climate Control. Dealer also fitted Cruise Control, Arm Rest and rubber mats all round Car started off looking like this. From picking it up it was drove straight to Funk Motorsport in London and the fogs/drls were tinted yellow with Lamin-X. Then After that to Awesome GTi in Manchester who put it on the Rolling Road and to my surprise it didn't make the claimed 103bhp and 184 lb fts, It actually made 114.5bhp and 201.8 lbs ft, While there i also picked up a 25mm H&R Rear Anti Roll bar, Audi R8 oil cap , Porsche Coolant cap and TT Jacking points. Then when i got it home i fitted a red TDi badge that i had ordered for the front Next was one of my favourite modifications Nitrogen Gas Bonnet Struts, Keep forgetting others don't have them so i've found a few i've opened the bonnet on my mates montes or vRS's and let them go expecting them to rise up like mine but they just slam back down lol. Then went off to visit a mate to get some pictures with his fabia Then the following day it was off to take part in the Glasgow to Monte Carlo Rally. Then also a quick stop off here on the way back Next fitted was the Autolight kit with a Mk1 Yeti switch so all the lights stay skoda green Next was Briskoda Number plate holders when fitting the fronts i found that the dealer ignored the 4 pre drilled holes and thought they would make 2 more Thankfully they used the holes for the back but the plastic bungs couldn't be screwed in again so had to replace those Also some Skoda tyre caps Next thing was the popular sunglasses holder mod Then Team Heko Wind Deflectors Next was the big thing for me, New wheels, after long consideration i decided on MK1 Octavia vRS Spiders which i'm so glad i went with as they really set off the car. Then the bad luck started First 2 lots of punctures Dead Battery And what i thought was a fuel leak turned out to be the air con leaking Also wrapped the stereo surround Then started the LED Conversation Started off with number plates from Halfords DRLs Twenty20's Autobeam Interior kit Autobeam LED fog lights with Halfords 6k Sidelights Autobeam LED Red Tail lights (only LEDs in the car that bring up a bulb error) give it a nice deep red look. Autobeam chrome indicators (these aren't led but will be changed to led in the future as autobeam have just brought out ones that dont need resistors) Techmac LED Headlights with Lush lightings adaptors Also have currently on the way Autobeam LED red brake lights, white reverse light , Red rear fog light. And the most recent H&R 40mm Lowering Springs Very happy with how it looks and drives just now, In the future it will get Bilstien Shocks, CR177 turbo with an S3 intercooler Darkside Hardpipe kit and hopefully get over the 200bhp mark.
