  1. Got to say this is putting me off too, after selling my mk1 Octy vRS (and wishing I didn't) and buying an E90 BMW I was seriously considering viewing a '06 plate TFSI vRS this weekend. Don't RX8's, whose engines are meant to burn oil, use about 1litre per 1k miles?!
  2. MOD EDIT: You need to be a Freedom Member to sell items on the forum.
  3. Nice pics, i didn't take my camera unfortunately. No piccies of the deloreans?
  4. Welcome to Briskoda, this site has been a great help to me over the last year when i got my Silver mk1 vRS. They are a cracking car too, unforunately i just sold my silver one, i bought it for my GF as her daily but she found it a bit too juicy. I miss it already. Jon
  5. Hatch i'm afraid I think they are a really nice touch, i like subtle changes like that on my cars.
  6. Just remembered i had these, i put off fitting waiting for the warmer dryer weather but i've now sold the car. Anyone fancy a set, lol?
  7. Hi, i'm sorry to say i'm gonna be one of those annoying people who drop out of things at the last minute, i'm afraid me and the missus have decided to sell the car, she's decided she doesn't want a MK2 Octy vRS as she "doesn't see the point of getting a new car the same as the last" lol I don't have a say even though it's my money as she uses it everyday, instead she's making me waste money on 5 grands worth of car with 5 grands worth of BMW branding on it gggrrr! sorry everyone. Jon
  8. Best bet is to try and find for sale pictures on autotrader and the like of Golf's/Bora/Leon etc and check pictures of the rear seats. The mounts for the rear seats on the Octy are under the seat base itself and not at all visable, the bora obviously has a hinge design and the mount is on the floorplan in front of and under the rear seat I was gonna change mine at some point to one without holes but i honestly don't notice them now they're plugged with spare carpet, I had to change my white carpet as soon as i got the car as it was beyond cleaning. Now i'm looking to trade the car i'll leave it.
  9. Mines a Bora carpet, it was very easy to do. The mount for the rear seats are different though and the Bora carpet will leave 4 holes in sight under the rear seat, their is excess carpet that tucks under the seats you can use to plug the gap though and iirc from around the pedals.
  10. Good job, makes a world of difference. Was very pleased when i did mine.
  11. 1. Opentoideas - PD100 Fabia 2. Jon.Etheridge - Mk1 Octavia vRS 1.8t - Map + STS Thanks for organising this, top work! Jon
  12. my last cheap run aroung i bought for the G/F's commute for work was a MK3 Mondeo 2.0 TDDI ON 113,000 miles after 3 ish months of using a redex one shot injector cleaner in every tank the mileage started to increase, only by about 70 miles a tank. I only used the stuff as my dad had loads left in his shed from the previous owners of his house.
  13. I know this isn't what your asking but i know for sure the carpets from an Audi A3, VW Golf and VW Bora definately fit. I have no idea on the Leon though, sorry.
  14. After owning many Fords this is a solution I'm familiar with, lol
  15. Thanks for the tip, i do have a glovebox rattle i haven't had a chance to look into I'll have a look.
