VRS INSURANCE- WHOS THE BEST COMPANY TO GO TO
Postcode lottery, once moved 1/2 mile, from postcode SK5 to M18, insurance doubled. Might have to try 2 or 3 different comparison sites. Good luck.

All we need now is video from tunnel, with that fabulous five pot noise. Still can't get my head round how small it looks it against more modern machinery.

LCR Brembo brake upgrade on a vRS. Help p[lease.
LCR wheels fit fine, 18" though. Seat did do a 17" version on the Ibiza Cupra(6K) model designation, which I think fit due to a higher offset. Check on Seat Cupra.net, was a few threads on there on which wheels fit over Brembo's without spacers. From my time owning a MK1 the LCR alloys were always stupidly priced. from my aging memory S3 Avus alloys fitted, but are quite heavy, TT comps were another possibility and not much difference in weight compared to Spiders. Compomotive did a couple of options, all old wheels now so not sure what availability is like now.

Need to find someone breaking an LCR, to get the bits you need. BiggRed brakes may do the bits you need, or VAGBremtechnic, not sure what the prices will be like though.

From what I remember, they didn't fit behind Spiders, minimum 3mm spacer was required(i think), if your Prolites have thinner spokes and a higher offset than Spiders you could be OK.

Anyone had issues buying from kopacek ?
Kopacek should of sent you a tracking number, if not ask for it, or if you do have one check Royal Mail site rather than Parcel Force. Royal were holding mine for over a month.

Oh and remember needs to be less than 2kgs, so no grilles, spoilers eg

I've never had problem's with them, ordered some bits on Black Friday, just waiting on Royal Fail to deliver, was sat at Langley for a month with all the strikes that they've been having, hopefully should be delivered in the next few days. Was a lot easier and quicker pre-Brexit when they used DPD.

part number and specs should be on the inside if OEM wheels- Silicone Coolant Hoses
google is your friend https://samcosport.com/product-category/car-kits/skoda/- Full leather seats for mk1 vrs?
As Dean said Golf/Bora Recaro leather, very comfy and hold you in place better than any Octy seats. got mine out of a Bora. Golf 4 R32 Konig seats look great, some people find them uncomfortable due to the wings in the shoulder area, and very hard to find and ridicously expensive at the time I changed my seats. S3 Recaros also fit. LCR fit but not an improvement on Octy seats.- Secondary Air Pump
I didn't bother with sealant, just the nuts, bolts and washers, did the job for a few years before eventually I ripped it out with all the other usual deletes.- Superskoda Order/ discount
From what I've read previously anything bigger than an envelope is a No-No since Brexit.- Rob's Ur Quattro
At least you can get your parts locally🤣🤣- Trevorb33’s Citigo Vrs 148Bhp (Up gti Conversion)
Looks good then you cover them up🤔☺️- Do many vRS MK1 owners do track days?
Did quite a few back in the day of owning my MK1 for 12 years, Was a few regulars back then, remember 2 silver one's(Ben & Johnathon), black estate(dave), red hatch cant rember who drove that one, probably a couple i've forgot, most people have probably moved on to newer cars now, youngest MK1's are now 17 year old(that makes me feel old). had great fun in mine, only broke it once, at Briskoda national day at Rockingham when the front hub snapped.- Thoughts on this VRS
Looks lowered to me, also has Maxton rear spoiler cap, the picture of the wheel looks to have a spacer on, vrs wheel centre caps, red and green stripe on front grill, debadged rear, probably enthusiast owned, may have even been member on here, or try one of the facebook vrs owners group for more history.- i am thinking about getting this
O/S/F looks low and wheel appears to sit further in, Don't know if it's my laptop, looking at front bumper both corners look scuffed or could just be light reflection. appears to be a dent O/S wing ,top of the arch. saets and carpet look like theyv'e not been cleaned for years, passenger seat has what look like tears on both bolsters. Reckon better cars for sale outthere, personally think that one is well overpriced.- What should we do about our Octavia?
whats the WBAC price? auction price anywhere upto £2k lower than that, Skoda finance price doesn't seem to bad to me looking on Autotrader, pester them for a lower price, got to be better for them rather than the cost associated with sending and putting through auction.- Niceyellow vrs' nice red VRS

drill some holes into the bumper bar around the same size as the 2 that are already on there, got to be better than narrowing the bumper bar - Can anyone identify these 18" wheels, please?
