  1. Depends on how many miles your car has doneI'm on 35k and there was a thread on here saying the standard shocks will wear out quick making the car bounce I'm thinking of coilovers and telling the installer to drop it 40mm then its similar to a h+r drop May save me wallet-ache further down the line In the meantime I'm assuming this project thread would interest you if you haven't already seen it Sorry,links wrong Its a project thread fabia vrs estate 2013
  2. BT also on my list of never agains 1 year of breaking the draconian usage limit and no help phoning them up Nothing (including the router) ever had my account number on it and they wouldn't disclose it hence discuss anything Found out since its on the direct debit list but too late Switched to Sky and never looked back
  3. Yeah,it looked an interesting project thread as well.
  4. I'd double check but you maybe limited on the number of pics you can upload unless you are a 'freedom' member
  5. If the timing chain don't need doing then maybe coilovers could be the way to go,money saved etc Its a great car spoiled by the ride height If I get this right the car could be a long term keeper
  6. I'll have to re-read the flyer. Ive had 3 mk2's and still get correspondance for the other 2 That would bring the price down a fair bit
  7. I got the flyer from Skoda not long back Timing chain was quoted as 3 years The springs were a luxury to take the pain away for paying for something I couldn't actually see I am fed up of the huge wheel arch gap. If lowered and looking the way I want it,Id likely keep it another year or 2
  8. So,can't decide what to do... Car is white Monte tech 13 plate 35000 miles Car needs timing chain and brakes doing all round While the wheels are off I tinkered with the idea of having it dropped on 40mm h+r springs,but not sure if shocks will take it - adding to the expense Not only that I would have to swap insurers, my current one won't accept mods Seeing as all this work will cost upwards of a grand I did wonder if the money could be put into a newer vehicle Polo gti would be top,but no satnav puts me off The other option is do bugger all and keep the money I do like the Monte and only do 6k a year (high miles came from previous owner) Any ideas or advice?
  9. Am wondering if maxi dot is stuck on phone page Mines done it twice, try this for remedy http://www.briskoda.net/forums/topic/399421-help-me-someone-please/?fromsearch=1 Edit - welcome to the forum.
  10. Had to get mine Monday, only day off 125.8 could've been worse
  11. I assumed Coulthard was the Stig Sure I saw him in promotional tg photos
  12. Going on holiday in 2 weeks and need to swap some sterling over to euros Am I correct in assuming this would be better to do before the 23rd in case the rate plummets?
  13. Much better tonight Even the star in a car was finally entertaining Dunno who the little guy was but he sure was funny. Hope they keep it up now......
  14. Omg the Orion Ghia I Even the same colour as I had Mine went belly up in the end and the aa got fed up of coming out to it Also noticed the Dunstable downs pic,have relatives near there and sometimes go and watch the gliders Next week is our annual visit so may go there if the weather holds.
  15. Omg thanks for that George Was considering Polo gti for next car but that post is enough to put anybody off!
  16. Disgusting treatment for a 30 year customer IMHO Good luck with it and if you don't get anywhere I hope you give them 'what for' Worst case scenario,brim it with oil and trade it into a car supermarket for a non vag car Hopefully it won't come to that
  17. Last nights show much better in places If he'd have put a gun atop the McLaren though it would have been game over IMHO Rallycross section dragged on and on,and showing clips to tell people who star was for me admits he wernt that famous Also at the 4x4 finale I caught myself phone surfing,something I would never do during old tg
  18. Am a maybe for this Assuming white mk2 fabias are welcome. Lol
  19. Weakest part of old Top Gear was siarpc Nice to see it change but suffers from the same problem it had before - the guests They fall into 2 camps,people who've already been on and people I've never heard of Sales of Amazon Fire sticks will go through the roof tomorrow!
  20. From the ads it looks like they haven't actually changed much If it ain't broke etc Still gonna watch
  21. Welcome to the forum Drive it more like you would a petrol,as in not changing up as early Check tyre pressures etc Both my older diesel vehicles bettered the 105tdi Monte I had for economy
  22. I too like the mg3 Looks nice,right size car and number of doors Just the engine that let's it down So near,yet so far.... Shame
  23. Very strange this one Mines been stuck on phone page for weeks and was going to try the column stalk thing this morning Gone to the car today and its fixed itself during the night Second time in 12 months its done that!
  24. Haven't watched any yet but I do like shmee150 videos.
