Hey Guys, Just ordered a new Octavia & was wondering if anyone knows the maximum capacity SD card that is compatible with the bolero head unit? Thanks in advance. Chris.

Will def be going for heated seats & you can get them with the regular seats (just the front ones tho me thinks!). The only thing that worries me about the regular seats is the white bits, to they dirty easily/are they easy to clean? -

Thanks for all the advice guys. I really do think it has to be DSG.... after a test drive to confirm, as I have only driven an Ibiza with DSG, but it was petrol. MFSW would be lovely, v annoying that it is not an option on the manual. The Maxidot & MFSW are standard on the DSG? Was not really considering the leather seats, are the standard ones horrible? -
Well guys, it has been a wonderful 3 1/2 years with my Fabia vRs LE, but it has come to the time when it has to go... I will be putting an order down for a new Octavia vRs diesel on tuseday but still cannot decide whether to go DSG or manual. I would love to know your thoughts/opinions as to advantages & disadvantages to both & perhaps any other info that I need to know before buying an Octavia. Any options I just have to go for? Thanks in advance. Chris

Hi Guys! Just need a wee bit of advice here. I just booked my Fabia vRS in for it's second service today. It's at 20,000 miles and is 18 months old. The service dept. at my local Skoda dealer advised me that a brake fluid change at a cost of £35 would be necessary. I'm just wondering if this is correct as they also advised me that the total cost of the service would be £250! Thanks in advance.

I think its every else over here that need driving lessons. Or even just to learn to use indicators, that would be nice!

Nope. Its a crappy grey/silver colour. With big accident repair centre stickers on the doors.

I feel for you matey..... You know I do. For you guys to understand you must visit this thread...... http://www.briskoda.net/forums/fabia/mr-lucky/86943/ -
So, hello again. Erm.... where do I start? Well let me first of all direct you to this post, where I describe my brand new (49 miles on the clock) Fabia vRS Special Edition gettin wrtitten off: http://www.briskoda.net/forums/fabia/value-written-off-fabia-vrs-special-edition/85656/ Then may I direct you to this thread, there my mate describes writing off his Octy, 2 weeks later: http://www.briskoda.net/forums/octavia/my-octy-written-off/86834/ Then may I show you pictures of my new Fabia vRS Special Edition the day after my mate writes off his Octy (someone drove into the back of me whilst sitting at a roundabout): Anyone think I should stay off the road? Ps: Its hilarious - What car does the Accident repair garage supply as a courtesy car??? Yes, you guessed right..... A Skoda Fabia.

If I decide to take her apart ill get back to you guys. I have to keep her for investigations for the moment..... However.... As far as alloys are concerned there are only 2 good ones on the car, the front two are destroyed. And i think ill be keeping one as a spare for the new Fabia. So at most, if at all, there will be one alloy & tyre left to sell on. The crashed car was #308, my new one is #738. And, yes there are times I wish it never happened & other times I want to stab my mate in the face.... but hey... whats done is done! We both walked out alive & relatively undamaged so thats the main thing!!
