MikeF replied to ollybroad's topic in Skoda Octavia Mk III (2013 - 2020)
mine is available for prolonged periods of time if you decide you would like to attempt - as long as you reverse any failure... -
Looking for some help with my octavia iii vrs (northwest if possible)
MikeF replied to MikeF's topic in Diagnostics & VCDS
ha ha ha no not really, I get the beep about a minute after I set off and because my street has a 20 sign it gets stuck on that for a while but its all good thanks. It behaves a bit strangely on the m60 in the 50 restrictions and keeps showing national speed limit signs despite not passing any... The four flashes hasnt come into play yet but im keeping a watch out for it I just have to listen to my other half complain about her car at the moment, I dont know how long I can continue to drive this while she drives around in this... At some point in the near future I see the golf either going or becoming a project and another car being purchased... -

Discount off list price on new car order?
MikeF replied to moatmeister's topic in Skoda Octavia Mk III (2013 - 2020)
I bought my vrs from http://www.discounted-new-cars.com and it came from Simpsons in Preston so I have to assume that if you go to Simpsons with the price on the website that's the dealer that can/will do a deal -
500k a day is the current estimate to keep the park shut Per day! Wow Add that to the 100 million drop in the share price, bad publicity and putting the public in danger and that 18 million for the smiler doesn't quite seem worth it.

Thanks mate, not sure andy will agree with the nomination... I'll pm him now -
Hi all, I've had the new vrs for a week today and I'm itching to enable some of those extra options that are available via vcds, only problem is I don't own the Ross tech kit. I'm basically looking for a kind and experienced forum member with vcds to give me a hand, obviously I'll drive pretty much anywhere in the new rs so although I'd prefer northwest I'd consider anywhere up to 100 miles from manchester. Obviously there will be some beer in the boot as thanks for the help

I don't think the catestrophic failure will sit well with merlin group, it wouldn't surprise me if gerstlauer don't get any more contracts I wonder what will happen to the smiler though, it's had it's fair share of issues and with the seriousness of the accident i think it will be a while till we see it back at full capacity.

That's upsetting, good luck in repairing, there aren't many meteor grey in this area so if I wake up to find my front bumper missing I'll have a good idea where to look.

Oil change advice needed for new car
MikeF replied to mikemorton's topic in Skoda Octavia Mk III (2013 - 2020)
Thanks, I keep trying to get round to reading everything but I'm not even a week in yet, I'll take a look I later on. -
Just seen that the smiler suffered a serious failure today and two cars collided leaving four with serious injuries, hope everyone makes a speedy recovery. I don't think it will be in operation again for some time. Anyone been on it, it was good at first but the last time I rode it didn't seem very smooth at all. http://i.imgur.com/6BqHglh.png

Oil change advice needed for new car
MikeF replied to mikemorton's topic in Skoda Octavia Mk III (2013 - 2020)
My new car has done 300 miles and looks like its on fixed, can it just change to variable or is it more complex? Or, how do I tell for sure? -
Or flaming dog poo Or pay kids to repeatedly knock on their door and run away...
-
There are now two sets though, ones that mention boarding spots and ones that don't, both the same price?
