Blimey this was about 6 years ago! It was just a normal kit as the headlight has a shutter in it. I'll see if I can find the link for you...

Winner Garage in Cinderford are the Skoda dealer for the Forest of Dean, great service and pricing from those guys.

Thanks, I just checked with my bro in law and he confirmed that the window switch was actually playing up before the door sensor issue so might not be related, I pulled the rubber right back (oi oi!) and all seemed fine, I will maybe check once more before I order the replacement parts. Seems odd that it hasn't effected the door lock as that locks and unlocks fine.

Morning all, My brother in law owns a 2011 Fabia Monte Carlo (my ex company car) and all of a sudden the sensor for the door open on the drivers door has stopped working, so the interior light doesn't come on and if your not quick to get the keys in the ignition then it locks again. The lock itself is working fine just not the sensor. Also the drivers electric window switch has been temperamental but most the time doesn't work. I have checked to see if any wires are broken between the door and body and all looks good, would it just be a case of a new window switch and door lock mechanism? I remember on Mk4 Golf's for example this used to happen when the internal mirco switches failed and wondered if it was a similar thing? Did a search and couldn't find anything so apologies if this has already been covered! Regards Callum

Love it mate, looks awesome!

Seats look awesome! Lovely motor...

I wasn't keen at all at first but is slowly growing on me, would like to see it in the flesh and on the road before I properly make up my mind though!

SOLD.

Hi and welcome to my sale, here we have a brand new set of H&R's that I never managed to fit to my company car before changing job & having to give the car back. I bought these brand new last year from DT Tuning & have all the receipts etc... The box has literally only been opened to have a look and that's it! These are the 40mm version 28833-2 I would like either £100 collected or £110 posted which is a decent saving over new. Paypal or bank transfer is fine, any questions please ask. I'm located in the Forest of Dean, Gloucestershire GL15 Cheers Callum - 07831 689724

Now SOLD.

Thank you for your opinion, I am of course open to offers on it but I think at the price you state that would get you a std car with high miles, this has been modified in the proper way & is a well sorted car with low miles for the age. I understand my price is top end of the scale but there is an awful lot of not great examples on the market & as stated before I am open to offers. I would also prefer if you have further comments that you message me directly rather than post on my thread unless you are interested in the car. Regards Callum

Would consider a deal with a Fabia VRS, Superb or Octy, preferably diesel but open to suggestions...

£1995 This is still available, now has 12 months ticket, had a CV boot and new front pads for the MOT (only advised but had them done), mileage is rising slightly due to daily use. This is a great fun car, whoever buys it will love it! Please contact me if you would like further details. Cheers Callum

Spotted something else I like so open to offers on this to shift it on!

Ah, only going on what I was told! Will edit the ad later! Either way add an FMIC & get it back on the rollers & it'll be even more fun!

Now SOLD. £2100 Seat Leon Cupra 2002 Blue 1.8T 228bhp I bought this car just over a month ago due to a change in job & having to return my Mk3 Octy VRS company car :'( , this was always going to be a temporary car but I have really grown to like it! However it's now time to move it on & let somebody else enjoy it! The lad I purchased it from had used it as his daily drive for the past 3 years, he'd bought it from a colleague who owned this car for 8 years, it has always been maintained well, receipts have been kept for all purchases, it has been maintained at the same garage for over the past 10 years! The car is super clean inside & out, everything works as it should, full credit to the previous owners, please do not mistake this for just another Leon with a remap as it's so much more, it's had an absolute fortune spent on the chassis, brakes, exhaust & engine (receipts for everything), it's had a lot of rolling road time & driving it reflects that as driving normally it's very refined, you wouldn't realise, then open it up & it goes like a rocket, but balanced & controlled, it's not noisy or harsh just a great all round car, perfect to enjoy or maybe turn into a track toy or even an ideal conversion base. The car is completely standard looking, you would struggle to tell what a wolf it really is! Key points below: 115,000 Miles FSH MOT December 2015 Stage 2 Remap 228 BHP (Badger 5 Dyno) Full Milltek Turbo Back Exhaust Inc. 200 Cel Sports Cat Green Cotton Air Filter Uprated Sachs Clutch Koni FSD Shocks Eibach Pro Kit Springs Eibach Anti Roll Bar Kit INA Engineering Uprated Engine, Gearbox, and dogbone mounts.

It only needs a FMIC to take it to stage 3 and add a healthy bit of extra boost again! Car is located in Bream, Nr Lydney, Gloucestershire GL15 Any questions please ring or text, I have very limited signal at work so will reply at lunchtimes or evenings. Cheers Callum - 07831 689724

We need pics! Got to wait another week till I fit mine :(

Good afternoon, I have some 20mm spacers to fit on the rear of my car, just need some longer wheel bolts for it, does anyone know the length of the standard bolts? Best place place to order the bolts from too? Cheers Callum

I'm hoping to get mine fitted next week, just sorting 20mm spacers for the rear, leaving the front for the mo as doesn't look too bad in my opinion where as the back wheels look lost on mine! Just want them all fitted now lol!!

Good work, apologies I didn't get the pics of mine, had them in the boot of my car and kept on forgetting to do it! They are the same as mine, when are you getting yours fitted?

Link to said kit: https://www.kufatec.co.uk/shop/en/sound-booster-pro/skoda/complete-set-active-sound-incl-sound-booster-skoda-octavia-5e

Kufatec offer the kit for an Octy 3, however it is big bucks (approx £1k) and is still only a fake exhaust note, no performance gains! There are a couple of companies that offer these but they are still all the same sort of money! It is one of the things when I was trying to decide between a GTD and VRS that I wanted, but no option on the Skod for it!

I also spoke to DTUK as well, they quoted £150 to re-programme it for a VRS and £50 for the loom, plus no warranty or free software updates, so for that it put me off slightly, hopefully someone with a 1.6 TDI will need one soon! Mine took a while to sell for my old Monte, I'm sure it will go in the end!

Well mine arrived yesterday! Picked them up from my local post office, hope to get them fitted over the next week..

If it's the same part number then should be okay??
