Looks like the weather was perfect for those shots @B33fy

I took a photo of Patricia Routledge

It's possible the letter at the end denotes LHD or RHD.

I can't think of many British films with a pipeline so I'll go for The World is not enough.

I've got two PDFs > 50Mb so can't upload here. (Current flow diagram and Wiring diagram) DM me your email and I can send them to you.

Have you got these two, Ryan? SkodaFabia_Accessories_en.pdf fabia_origacc.pdf

Any good? fabia_origacc.pdf

I've got these if you want them,Ryan? Both from 2003 Skoda range price list. The full THREE models available!! And a Fabia brochure Not found the PDF's on one hard drive so far. Before I go digging the others out, the ones you have aren't the ones I uploaded on here some time ago are they? If so that's all I have I'm afraid.

I might have. I'll need to check an old Hard Drive. I'll get back to you later. I might have original hard copies as well somewhere if you want them FOC.

You're welcome, Ryan. And people say I'm not helpful 🤣🤣

I did wonder why you dropped that pic in the chuckle thread as well now I realise that was an accident 😂

Here we are. Probably worth a few quid now to someone? I've just noticed the garage name and address on the box; Ipswich. Probably somewhere known to FordFan (RIP) as that's where he was located.

My Dad had a 71 Corrina 1600 E. First three letters were JOE! That got written off sadly but my grandad gave him his non E and dad transferred everything he could onto that. I've still got some of the original Smiths gauges in the shed here. I'll dig them out.

Yeah, cam belt slipped and had teeth missing causing it to cut out as I stopped at a motorway exit. Towed back home. I managed to get it running again (ATD engine is a non interference engine so valves etc were fine). I sold it on to Tech1e for a good price with loads of bits n bobs. He drove it from Southampton back to his in Malvern with no problems and changed the cam belt. He then got rear ended in it and it was written off. The second rear end it had. The first was by a Freelander driven by a dozy woman on the M27 who wasn't paying attention. New crash bar and about £1Ks worth of work to put it right.

I'll just do mySkoda's. MkII Fabia Kombi sold in Hamburg in 2019. MkI Fabia 1.4 Comfort. Bought for £500 and sold back to previous owner (BossFox) for £500. I did do a lot of tidying up on it. MkI Fabia 1.9TDi Elegance. M favourite and wish I never sold it on. Did a lot of work on that.

Fair play to him. Sunday's are perfect for putting the hammer down as trucks are banned on the Autobahns on a Sunday. No idiot truckers pulling out at 79.7Kph trying to overtake the truck in front that's doing 79.6Kph I only maxed my Skoda Oxymoron once or twice. It's a novelty and aside from burning DERV too quickly it takes nerves and a lot of concentration. And the novelty soon wears off. There's talk about bringing in limits. Probably from jealous EV drivers who'd take a week to get from Hamburg to Munich if you add in max power all the way plus recharge time

Thanks, George. It was de-badged so no idea if it was electric and I never checked for a tail pipe It did have winter tryres on and if electric then many torques more than and ICE.

I've mentioned before on here (in another topic?) that in Germany they use a lot of Lada Riva's and Suzuki Jimney's for winter service on side streets etc but this is a first! No idea what a Smart Fortwo will be like ploughing

Surprised you didn't go for 'Smart arse'

No, it's a Nova Anybody remember that young lad maybe 7 years ago now - daddy splashed a lot of money out on a tidy Mk VRs SE only for him to end up crashing it?

It's your car. If you're happy with it that's all that matters. Aside from the potential problem with the reg plate it looks OK.

How's that working out then
