Deffo a plate underneath

I've tried that no joy

Hi all. Back to the skoda fold after quite a few years with a new karoq se tech. Having some trouble with mats. The floor retaining clips in the carpet seem to be fitted in the wrong position on the driver side. I have tried to remove one with pliers and persuaian and managed to break it. I've got another one ordered but can anyone tell me what the trick is to remove them?

Hiya guys, wondering if anyone could help? Does anyone know how much a 2nd hand TDI cat converter from a VRS is worth? Ive heard they contain platinum so the scrap value is high? Can anyone shed any light?

Hi all hope you are well does anyone have the part number to hand for the long black boost pipe that runs along the left of the engine bay. did a search but the thread was deleted I think. cheers

I like the hatch, though not too sure on the style of the alloys, they don't seem to "fit"

Jase mate I am looking at changing my Fabia for a Corrolla T Sport? How come you got rid? What sort of price should I be paying for one? Can I pick up a decent one for under 6k? They seem to be 04 plates with about 55k on them for that money? When I look at one is there anything I should watch out for? Any common faults?

Cheers for suggestions guys. Yeah Leon Cupra would be major insurance rape-age. Colt CZT... not sure on the looks and a bit small possibly. Ibiza FR 1.8T could be a good shout but pretty similar to a Fabia really? Fiat Panda 100hp I like but again maybe too small. Focus ST170 may look into that but aren't they unreliable? Astra SRI, the petrol engines are pap. Renaultsport Megane, do they do a non-225? Clio- too small.

Alright guys. i've decided that the time has come to change the Fabia. I've got a new job which is a 5 minute walk down the road so my milage will be cut drastically from my current 40 mile a day commute, so no longer see the need for a diesel. Also, I've started to get a little bit of clutch slip in 5th, so rather than shell out 1k for a new clutch i figure I might as well trade it in and go back to a petrol? Does anyone have any suggestions? I'm aiming to get about 4k trade in for the Fabia (04 plate, 60k, FSH, good nick) then I'd be willing to add another 2k to that but ideally less. Requirements: - Nippy (sub 9s to 60 as a benchmark) petrol - Big enough to fit a babyseat in the back - Reliable - Not too high mileage - Less than Group 14 insurance but ideally less than group 10 I'm open to anything really. All I've thought of so far are: - Corsa SRI 1.8 - Toyota Corrolla 1.8 T-SPORT

Poor doggy :(

Did mine myself, think it was an 096, can't remember. The 4 year Halfords own calcium jobby. Came to £67 or something as my sisters BF has a trade card. Hardest bit was getting that STUPID jacket to sit properly around the battery.

Well, got some insurance quotes and they are ridiculous anyway, not paying £3-400 quid more for a car that is slower!

Haha, loving the pics, cheers guys.

Yep, in a rut at the moment with it.

Hmmm yes, the 1.8 eco$hite is not the best....

Basically, I'm starting a new job, and will be doing a lot less miles. I do 40 miles a day at the moment, and new job in walking distance. So see no need for the Fabia. I fancy a convertible, basically to a) pose and wind my ex up to hell. Other than that, I'd probably consider a smallish warm petrol, but again, I've gotta fit a kiddies car seat in the back, but not bothered about 5 doors. Insurance is the biggie, as I'm 21 with 0 ncb. dont really want to lay out more than 1-1.5k on top of what I'd get for Fabia.

HI all. I've been going through a bit of a rough time at home at the moment, hence why I haven't been on herevery much. Anyway, my Fabia is doing my nut in at the moment, just little niggley things that I want to put right but cant really be arsed. To cheer myself up, I'm thinking about trading my Fabia in for a Vauxhall Astra Coupe Conv. Bertone edition. I looked at the 2.0 turbo but canot afford, so would have to be 1.8 n/a. I'll be getting a job within walking distance in a few months, so current 40 mile a day commute will be gone. How much would a Fabia VRS, 04 plate, 60k, a few extras like remap, 312mm upgrades, black, FSH, be worth nowadays? Canyone suggest any other cars? Must be able to get a kiddies car seat in the back! Here is a pic of Astra Conv...

Around £65k. Which seems a lot, but a lot of MPs, contrary to belief, do work bloody hard and will reguarly put in 16 hour days and work saturdays. You also dont get much more accountable than an MP. Personally, I think: 2nd home allowance should be scrapped, they should provide a small 1 bedroom apartment for every MP outside of London in a communal building. Food, decorating etc allowance should be scrapped. Travelling expenses should be kept along wth admin expenditure - however this should be limited to "economy" travel on trains and planes. Should not be allowed to employ family members Number of MPs should be cut by about 10-20% i.e. 60-120 members.

You shouldn't need shorter droplinks in that case. I'd reccomend getting some shorter rear bumpstops from a Seat Ibiza. I started a thread about it a while ago.
