Alright chaps. Got an issue with 07 vRS clutch. The pedal goes down and I can get the car in gear. The pedal doesn't return. If I lift it up with my foot the clutch engages. Obviously this makes driving impossible 🤣 Master cylinder?

Another vote for Uniroyal RainSport 2s. On my 3rd set now. Can't fault them. Standard tyre size fitted to mine. Any lower profile and the ride would be even worse!

Anyone go rally day at brands hatch?

Yep! -
Fabia air con seems to draw a lot of mixed opinions on it's performance. My 2007 SE vRS works perfectly. My dad's 2005 vRS works perfectly. I have 2x 2005 Ambiente Estates at work - AC works perfectly, both on around 95k. I inherited them in 2005, one was on 22k, one was on 55k. None of these cars have been regassed (I'm the fleet manager so would know if the 2 Estates had been done) Yet I've seen people complaining that theirs is fudged! Weird.

Yep, that's a good colour combo! Same with the grille, I might have been tempted to do it black maybe,. Yellow wheels, love it

Variable service option isn't available on the MkI vRS, is it?

I would hazard a guess and say it was most likely a diesel spill. The A420 is the main A road between Oxford and Swindon, and is used all day every day by many HGVs. This road is notorious for accidents big and small. Google A420 accident and you will find many shunts and some fatalities - the most recent in April - a young lady was killed in a head on collision with a truck. The nature of the road frustrates - so please, go easy and don't make yourself a statistic. -
The best way to do it I get somewhere between 600 and 660 most tanks - after filling the expansion wotsit, works out 55 litres or just shy. On board computer reads mid-high 60s, when in fact it's really low-mid 50s. Still not shabby considering the grunt

The ride will be even worse. Enjoy

I've got a black Exeo I use for work - reg begins AK61 - but I don't get out that way very often!
-
Looks good, I like. I recognise that reg plate and body mods - DA15 postcode? Saw it last week when I was out and about! :)

Potential honeycomb mesh overload. Grille & lower bit looks good though!

I have 2 1.9TDi Ambiente estates on my fleet at work and agree - they ride really nicely.
