  1. Cheers all! I tried to get some quotes today but the speciaist was closed and theres no Skoda garage around here. I wasn't "flying" too much certainly not more than +10mph, honest! It can be a fun road especially after dark when the big deers start wandering around the middle of it. I used to know a guy who was forever hitting deer. Quite handily he was a meat inspector, not sure what annoyed him most totalling his car or finding everyone he hit had TB and was therefore inedible! I've never hit badger, ouch! Once hit a sugarbeet that fell of a lorry though, now that was scary!
  2. That's exactly what mine looks like. I'm surprised the price is so low, I was expecting more. I'll pop into a garage tomorrow for a quote, before almost certainly making matters worse by trying to fix it myself!
  3. Thanks Chloe, is the drivers side the left or the right, I can never work out if it's the left as you look at it from the front or the right from the back?
  4. Hi All I've been unfortunate enough to hit a pheasant Thinking I would arrive at my destination with entrails and few feathers stuck to the grill I was surprised to see... The small drivers side of the bottom grill missing, the drivers fog light rattling loose and the body coloured bit that surrounds it missing, the bit that covers the headlight washer for the xenons missing and now when I use the screen wash it doesn't extend and just floods inside the bumper with water! I managed to find the grill bit on my return journey and have popped the fog light back in place though the washer still just floods inside the bumper and few bits of plastic have come from inside (looks like they belong to the fog light/washer assembly. I'm thinking of sorting it myself and was wondering can I get the fog light surrounds in the body colour or do I need to get it sprayed? Also is the bit that covers the light washer available to buy, it looks like it may have snapped where it attaches. Also, if I can't repair the washer unit, are they readily available (and not too expensive)? Thanks, Steven
  5. 1. wudzy 2. Exhausted 3. Jallu_B - 140 TDi (KMH & EU Shipping) 4. MisterGT - vRS TDi Really sorry guys, my wife has excelled herself this month and I have just received a £1700 credit card bill :eek: On a positive note it did include £188 for cruise control that my good wife "bought" me for my birthday! Will be good to go in about 2 months (CC allowing) if that helps.
  6. Hi I'm guessing you are using Vista? There's been a slight glitch in a recent flash install which means it installs but doesn't seem to register properly. You will need to do a full uninstall of Flash see Adobe KB article And then try to re-install it. If it still doesn't work it's probably worth uninstalling again and having a look round for a standalone version to install rather than the automatic web install. HTH Steven
  7. I used this one from Maplins for £14.99. They work a treat. I had an 8 way adapter plugged into the perihperal socket to turn off monitors, speakers, phone chargers etc. The only shame is I moved and can't use it for the computer anymore as we have so many powercuts I needed a UPS. Steven
  8. Definitely want the Jumbo pack. Given the choice though I think I would opt for the 17's and use the £450 towards xenons. I think the 18's look great but would prefer a little more rubber for comfort. Now just have to pick which dealers to call and persuade them to match DTD price!
  9. Cheers, hopefully they will extend it again as I'm too indecisive to make my mind up in 5 days! I know last time I went to the dealers they told me the free upgrade was only on cars available to order from stock which seemed a little odd ??
  10. I came back to this site to see if I could sell my fabia to lease a zafira as I need something bigger. Now I've managed to persuade myself that I want an Octavia vRS instead! I notice they have the free upgrade offer which ends 31st March. Does anyone know if it is likely to be extended or if there are rumours to what it will be replaced with? Cheers Steven
  11. sorry just read the rules in the sales forum nd realised I shouldn't have posted this. Steven
  12. My 05 came with Turunza ER300's - bit noisy but good enough for me It was a right pig trying to find a replacement when I ripped one though.
  13. For the few I've done I usually look on Amazon and find a book with the best user reviews. I then spend around a month going through the book in my own time and sit the exam. Far far cheaper than training courses. As a tip if you go to www.getcertify4less.com they often (but not always) have discounted vouchers for VUE examinations. Not a huge saving but I think I paid around
