PRING

Wow how times have changed. Had a box fitted to mine (140k) because of elongated holes making it seem like the mounts needed changing. The second hand box (110k) including fitting was £60 😂😂 Unfortunately now this box has started to go (15k later). However, will be having another box delivered to me (hds) plus fitted for £80 this Sunday 🤣😆 peanuts considering this conversation and prices! My car has ‘all the right mods’ for reliability and more reliable power - Fmic, hard pipe kit, pd160 intake, pipercross panel, egr delete, 1756 turbo, new braided oil feed lines, DS downpipe, 4 bar map sensor, seat sport strut brace. brakes - 312 discs and ds2000 sport pads, braided lines all round and sport fluid. Everything has been replaced underneath with all superpro bushes including axle, whiteline r arb, st sus etc etc etc. even new sub frame bolts and washers, T rods, ball joints, stub axles, bearings, drop links, top mounts. Spent about 5k so far on this little runaround. Could of bought a decent car for that !! However, I do have a decent car being forged as I write this ! 🙈🙈 I really love this little fab and its journey.

Hi, Im new obviously and this is my first post. Just saying hello to everyone.my first car was a k reg Skoda GLX1 estate in reddy brown colour. Paid £75 quid, tyre was flat and needed the exhaust fixing - it had been neglected and sat around for 3 months! Its started first time! Sold! MOTd it, new tyre and middle section of the exhaust and a full valet and machine polished twice (by me) and it was one of the mintest looking bangers around !! I actually loved that car and at the time being young and having a fitty in the passenger and having one of the finest paint jobs around got loads of stares and smiles! I was saving up for a modified MK3 Golf from a friend so when I had raised the big money at the time (to me) for the Golf I sold the Skoda for £250 4 months later. Ive only owned VAG group cars all my life - now Ive bought a mint Fabia VRS 2005 which has been put back (nearly) to mint condition plus its had a respray. Its a run around but with all my previous run arounds I want to keep it tip top and probably map and improve the handling. I have a modified TTS just shy of 400 hp 420lbs as my other car (just got my license back previously had an RS6 and a brilliant 2005 VW 1.6 banger as a runaround). I heard Celtic tuning do a decent map for this car. Anyway thought I would say hi and have a nice day x
