      +Seen the death of many a forum like PWCForum due to faceache.Much prefer forums as you can search stuff..

      Quiet in terms of responses to things. I've searched for my answer but tech moves on so wanted to know what my options were. Got hardly any responses. That could be because the model isn't current anymore, members who did tune them don't have them anymore I'm not sure.

      I ask about some suspension bits for an Octy I've just bought and someone else starts asking their own questions. Every car setup is different

  3. MartynVRS

    Has the Fabia sections become the George sections? Feels like he's posted in every thread..

  4. MartynVRS

    Listed everything on eBay. Disappointed tbh

  5. MartynVRS

    Rest of my Fabia vRS bits are for sale. Onwards and upwards

  6. MartynVRS

    Mentally made the decision but breaks one of my hard coded rules to do it. But I'd be stupid to miss the opportunity

      Very random..So youre selling your car then? LOL

      What are you getting Martyn?

    4. MartynVRS

      MartynVRS

      Mine has to sell first but it's something they didn't many of. And it's not a Skoda

  7. MartynVRS

    Think it may be finally time to think about selling the vRS...

  8. MartynVRS

    Car passed MOT. Testing a potential replacement later

  9. MartynVRS

    Fabia vRS's first MOT tomorrow

      Yeah it's flown. It's been good but I need to start thinking of a replacement after Winter.

  10. MartynVRS

    Work review went well. Pay rise and some extra skills to learn. It's been a hard few months but I'm starting to feel it was worth it.

    1. BossFox

      Great news. :-)

      Well done Martyn, I hope you find yourself a bit more settled there now. :)

    3. MartynVRS

      MartynVRS

      Yeah it's definitely getting there. Still some loose ends to sort out but I can definitely see the light at the end of the tunnel now.

  11. MartynVRS

    Been a fairly good week so far. Found a flat and started taking several things to the next stage. Next few months have potential to be great

      Good going Martyn, things beginning to look up for you. Good luck with it all.

    2. MartynVRS

      MartynVRS

      There are some challenges but I think will be pretty enjoyable. Been a long time since I've had so much on the go a once

  12. MartynVRS

    Nice crack in my windscreen. Just go through my insurance?

      U need a new windscreen claim via insurance.

      can you get a heated on retrofitted while you're at it?

    4. MartynVRS

      MartynVRS

      Doubt it. Just checked my insurance policy and it's

  13. MartynVRS

    Am I allowed to say I don't like the Rapid Spaceback without someone having a go?

    1. Evil Miyagi

      Evil Miyagi

      How can you not like it? shocking!

    2. TeflonTom

      TeflonTom

      how very dare you.. rapid spaceback is the car of champions don't you know!

      It's good on fuel I'll give it that but the 1.6 TDI is underpowered, handling numb and too light, brakes have no feel and ABS kicks in way too easily.

  14. MartynVRS

    What a waste of a weekend. I'm more confused about what to do car wise than ever.

      get the swift, you're always saying what a hoot they are and their fixed price servicing is pretty cheap too. If it makes you grin, then get one in.

    3. ChrisRs

      ChrisRs

      I agree. Nice small cars and if youre fed up with the vRs..Makes more sense

    4. MartynVRS

      MartynVRS

      I'll see what the Summer brings. Should be a good few ex demo's about then

  15. MartynVRS

    The Fabia section is still bad for anyone's mental health. Things may improve once I get an Octavia vRS

      you did! (now they is cheapz) ring a bell?

    3. MartynVRS

      MartynVRS

      Ah I remember. Although I thought that back when I sold mine.

    4. grr666

      grr666

      Now they is cheapz...

      Oh yeah, I do remember now you say that....

  16. MartynVRS

    Still looking for an Octy vRS Estate TDI. I know Skodas are "cheap" cars but many used ones have very few options.

  17. MartynVRS

    Can't wait to go back to a manual. DSG is fast but far too lazy. The future is safe but I want to enjoy manuals while I can

  18. MartynVRS

    Love how people say I should "hurry up and buy a house now". Well if they fancied giving me ten grand or so I could do it tomorrow. Except for fuel, rent and food I've saved all I've earnt for the last 5 months! P155 boiling

      I would buy "any old house". With the news saying house oprices are expected to rise by

    3. GentleGiant

      GentleGiant

      That should say

    4. MartynVRS

      MartynVRS

      I should have said any house, as in panic buying the first one that's in budget. I have thought about buying one to do up over time just as long as I can live in it then fix one room at a time.

  19. MartynVRS

    Looking for a new car is tedious. Love cars a driving just hate buying and selling them.

  20. MartynVRS

    That's me done for a while. Time for a break...

    1. grr666

      grr666

      Brisky break?

  21. MartynVRS

    Humbug. What a waste of time Christmas is

      So get back to work then

  22. MartynVRS

    Time to start saving for a house. Fabia vRS will have to go for something cheaper to run. But how do I buy one, sell another and still go to work inbetween? This could get awkward

    1. grr666

      grr666

      Mark 1??

  23. MartynVRS

    Finally have usable internet. Only 6mb but better than nothing

    1. Sparkly

      Sparkly

      Certainly better than that 2mb that feeds my entrie street : /

  24. MartynVRS

    Last day in work and a nice weekend off before starting the new one

  25. MartynVRS

    Got the Job! :D :D :D
