Mainly dwarf the variety and have just ordered a Fu manch lion fish as think they are beatiful Here's a picture of my little man!!
  2. Cheers mate, I fell in love with your car! One day when I have saved alot of money I would love the new fabia vrs and it suits the White perfectly. I still haven't spotted you yet though! Lol Olly
  3. Check the rear tyres for you rumble noise, as if they wear unevenly they step on the edges and make a terribly rumbling noise like a wheel bearing. So just jack it up or and check the tyre pattern and see if they are worn abnormally at all, usually like a 50pence piece! Olly
  4. 23 5years NCB with non fault accident! Fully comp in Birmingham, £850 through Adrian flux modified declared. They wanted £1100 to insure with remap though, so now incannot afford to do this as way out of my price range to insure annoyingly! Supposedly Birmingham is not great for car crime either so insurance not great!
  5. Was nice meeting everyone and seeing some nice skoda's will definitely meet up again whenever that may be. Olly

  12. I bought this around 4 years and and have not used it much at all really. It can hold around 200 songs dependent on file size etc. It has light scratches to the mirror back but on superficial. It has never had any problems when use and holds charge. I am after £15 and postage is fine too. Thanks olly
  13. Hi, I'm selling my road pilot micro go speed camera database unit with car charger and windscreen mount. It requires updating through the road pilot database which is £40 for a years subscription which you can update daily to download new camera locations. It's a great piece of kit but I only do a 3 mile town commute so do not need it any more. It's in immaculate condition which the photo shows. I am after £15 for the item and will happily post if pick up is not possible. This cost me £99 with the years subscription but realise as it will cost £40 to update this is a fair price for a great unit. Any questions please ask away http://i516.photobucket.com/albums/u329/Ol1y/1c40bc2a.jpg

    New car!

    I just told her about fast polos and here face lit up! I think the 1.4tdi fabia elegance looks really nice with a brilliant speck too. Are their many problems with the 1.4 engine? I'm assuming cambelt driven? And at what mileage are they usually replaced? Thanks for any help as like to knows facts before looking at cars. She agrees the fabia is alot better specced than the polo too. Thanks olly
  18. I'm always up for meets just not any organised yet! Is anyone going to santa pod on 24th of this month?
  19. Hi, when I have serviced cars often the oil is black when you dip it straight away. It was the same when I serviced my fabia and I put the oil in. Some diesel engines are like that! I have serviced alot of cars through work but if your unhappy go back. If they gave you a service check sheet and you feel certain items were not done foe exampl the boot latch greasing they have not carried out the work correctly. We have refunded customers the full service cost due to forgetting to change a key battery or something similar which shlould have been done. So check your service sheet and schedule to see then go back to them. I work for Toyota and we refund or do free services to apologise. Hope this helps a little Olly

    New car!

    New car!

    I'm looking to buy my missus a new car and like the idea of a polo. Now I'm not sure whether they are a good buy and if so a petrol or a diesel. We are looking to spend between 4/5k. I would prefer a diesel but she believes a petrol will be better as she only does around 80-100 miles a week. My main questions are has anyone got experience of the petrol or diesel polos? I have seen 1.4tdi and 1.2 petrols which both sound good to me. The petrols much lower mileage and newer in age too. Any help would be great as her current car which is a ka rusting to pieces and mot is august! Lol Thanks olly
  22. Glad to here it's not just me then! Can't find Manu good previews on you tube of actual game footage though, or a car list anywhere?
