  1. sorry should have said ..for £89 you get roadside / home / recovery vehicle and upto 8 people / onward travel inc replacement car for 48hrs european support ...... so I reckon its a no brainer:D and thats with skoda and the RAC
  2. Hi all Just had a Skoda breakdown renewal form come through as my vRS is coming up 3 yrs old and the free cover is ending ......... the offer is £89 for the year which seems a pretty good deal compared to quotes on the RAC and AA websites....... what have you guys done I wonder..... also please can some one tell me how soon in advance can I have its 1st mot done .... it was registered 01/03/2005 cheers for any replies
  3. Rumour has it......... that was the 2008 fabia vRS in disguise doing some secret testing
  4. I wonder how it would look with a white roof ????
  5. Aother thing to consider lane 1 is quite often rutted with the continual pounding of trucks ..... I was quite surprised the other day when driving a 7.5 ton waggon . sitting high up I could clearly see the 2 ruts in the tarmac . like driving on tram lines :( can be quite frustrating trying to drive without constantly correcting the steering ........ well thats my 2 pennyworth
  6. . i`ve been complaining about my brakes since I bought the car 2 years ago ......... they are probably the worst brakes against car performance I have ever known ... if I keep the car after the warranty period .. I will fit 312`s
  7. Just driving 28 miles is not enough to recharge a flat battery........... you either need to charge it on a battery charger or go for much longer drive ........ I read many moons ago that it takes about 20 miles just to put back 1 start up .......... so when you take other things using the battery like radio / wipers / heater etc
  8. I recently bought a set of valve caps that change colour when the pressure drops by 2psi ... they seem to work pretty good ........ have been checking them and they do what it says on the tin ....... before that I was always looking at the tyres and thinking they needed air but on checking they did`nt
  9. Guess he just became a landowner !! with a couple of acres
  10. Get some rsole to sneak onto your drive during the night and lever it off with a blunt instrument ... leaving the paintwork chipped and a dented just found out the scrote did 16 other local cars that night and he is being charged for damage ......... when I discover who he is then I`m afraid he wont be able to pick his nose for a month or two
  11. RACE BLUE WITH A WHITE ROOF WOULD BE NICE :thumbup:
  12. after 2 years of vRS ownership ....... I have just discovered the fact that you can have the radio / cd player on without the need for the key to be in the ignition I dont like leaving the key in the ignition when I`m not sat in the seat ie at petrol station etc ....... and cos my radio was always on it used to switch off when the key is removed .... but if you push the on/off button in and then out again the radio works without the key.. so you can have music while you are on your drive / garage without worrying about someone jumping in your car and driving off
  13. BRILLIANT :rofl: :rofl: Would have liked to know if the engine restarted ......... I reckon they could have **cked the engine going in at that speed ......... another big bill for the tax payer
  14. My local shell garage in Taunton is 95.9p per Lt for diesel have only used Shell since I bought my car in May 2005 also run my works van Peugoet Partner diesel on shell both vehicles run smoothly and considering how the van is thrashed daily get about 500mls from a tankfull ....... added bonus is now shell do a club card so will get some money off fuel vouchers for my car also double points on 200 Lts or more a month :thumbup:
  15. LOOKS THE DOGS WHATSITS LOZ :thumbup: can you photoshop the roof white and post a piccy???
  16. whatever wheels you get ... have them sprayed white and the roof of the car :thumbup:
  17. The defective parrot A man is browsing in a pet shop and sees a parrot sitting on a little perch. It doesn't have any feet or legs. The guy says aloud, "Golly, I wonder what happened to this parrot?" The parrot says, "I was born this way. I'm a defective parrot." "Holy crap," the guy replies. "You actually understood and answered me!" "I got every word," says the parrot. " I happen to be a highly intelligent, thoroughly educated bird ." "Oh yeah?" the man asks, "Then answer this -- how do you hang onto your perch without any feet?" "Well," the parrot says, "this is very embarrassing but since you asked, I wrap my weenie around this wooden bar like a little hook. You can't see it because of my feathers." "Wow," says the guy. "You really can understand and speak English can't you?" "Actually, I speak both Spanish and English, and I can converse with reasonable competence on almost any topic: politics, religion, sports, physics, philosophy. I'm especially good at ornithology. You really ought to buy me. I'd be a great companion. " The man looks at the $200.00 price tag. "Sorry, but I just can't afford that. " "Pssssssst," says the parrot, "I'm defective, so the truth is, nobody wants me 'cause I don't have any feet. You can probably get me for $20, just make the guy an offer!" The man offers $20 and walks out with the parrot. Weeks go by. The parrot is sensational. He has a great sense of humor, he's interesting, he's a great pal, he understands everything, he sympathizes, and he's insightful. The man is delighted. One day the man comes home from work and the parrot goes, "Psssssssssssst," and motions him over with one wing. "I don't know if I should tell you this or not, but it's about your wife and the postman." "What are you talking about?" asks the man. "When the postman delivered the mail today, your wife greeted him at the door in a sheer black nightie." "WHAT???" the guy says incredulously. "THEN what happened?" "Well, then the postman came into the house and lifted up her nightie and began petting her all over," reported the parrot. "NO!" he exclaims. "And she let him?" "Yes. Then he continued taking off the nightie, got down on his knees and began to kiss her all over...." Then the frantic man screams, "THEN WHAT HAPPENED?" " Damned if I know. I got an erection and fell off my perch!"

  20. Thanks to all for your input ........ Mike I use an external full size keyboard on my current laptop want to move away from that ....... its a pain having to carry it around Re company owned laptops......... I dont suppose users take as much care if they did`nt pay for it
  21. Hi Peeps I have decided to replace my old laptop and after a lot of research have shortlisted 2 HP DV9288ea from Hewlett Packard £1299 Voyager C720DC from Evesham £1399 both these choices have 17" screens and full size keyboards as I do quite a lot of numbers imput I must have a numerical pad I am edging towards the evesham one because they offer a 3yr warranty and will supply it with MS xp home edition I`m not keen on moving to vista ..... my new last year Dell Desktop machine has xp and I`m quite happy using that in fact I prefer to run with the windows classic look ... So I am wondering if anyone out there has any experience of HP or Evesham laptops ..........
