I agree with all the above. Had mine for just over a year and a half now and its always on 90 degrees however I'm driving.

I Mostly use V Power or Tesco 99. i do sometimes use 95ron but only when there is no other alternative but tbh its not very often.

Im using the halfords 90% brighter bulbs in my vrs and they seem to pretty good. not cheap tho at £18ish each.

Thanks guys i have mine at 30psi all round at the moment and it feels pretty good. i just wondered if anyone had tried experimenting?

Hi. just wondered what the best pressures are for the 205/50/17 tyres on the Octavia mk1 vrs.

I spotted you in hucknall tesco once thebloyn but you didnt see me . i did post on the spotted forum.

I would def be up for a meet in the new year. Im in the Mapperley area.

Like andyvr6 says halfords are doing a bogof on there 90% brighter xenon bulbs and they have made a vast imrovement in my mk1 vrs.

I would be up for a meet also. some evenings and weekends not a propblem.

I have to say i like the handling of the octy vrs mk1. I have driven all sorts of cars including my mates M3 and i get just as much fun drivng my octy as driving the M3. Even my mate rates the handling of the octy he likes how direct the steering is. I can't complain. I also think the Focus has a bloody good chassis so the handling is excellent too but unless you get a Focus ST or RS then there is a lack of power to pull it out of the corner but then of course thats a different matter being FWD.

I agree with both answers. It certainly would be an interesting test and as bigal rallyred said the octavia was rally for a few years as the octavia wrc 4wd.

Do the S3 seats fit straight in then?

OK. in that case i will have to decline your offer. if it was the size of the smaller one it would have been perfect for what i was after. Thanks again though.

so is it 500mm or 200mm as that one in the picture looks more like 200mm

P.s i can see it says the size in your original post. i feel such a dime bar now. LOL.

Sorry thats a bit big for what i was thinking. I was hoping it would be a bit smaller for the rear quarter window like the briskoda sticker. Thanks Anyway.

Hi im interested in it. what size is it?

which colour did you go for then fatty5000?

Thanks mate i just checked mine and they were a little loose so have tightened them up a little. P.S. is that a yellow octy mk1 vrs you have if so good choice nice to see a fellow yellow owner. LOL

Hi Harry vRS what HID kit are you using. is it one from HID's 4 u? if not which one is it?

Could Anyone tell me if the Phillips Blue Vision H4 bulbs are any good as i don't have the xenon lamps i only have the standard lamps but im looking for some brighter light as i do a bit of country road driving at night. if these are not that great can anyone suggest a better bulb to use. Hope some one can answer this question for me. Thanks.

Standard Octy mk1 vRS i pay £350 fully comp. which i didnt think was to bad.

Thanks Guys for that. I must say i've not tried the brakes from really high speed but have done a bit of b road blasting and im impressed with the brakes say upto 80 or 90mph or so.

Hi just wondered if its not already been covered. but what make brakes are on the Octy mk1 vrs and how many pistons they have. e.g. 2 pot 4 pot and so on. Hope someone can answer this and if this is in the wrong place my appologies and feel free to move. Thanks.
