  1. im thinking of a skyline too gee.. or a fiat coupe 20v turbo and tune the balls off it
  2. well sold the octy vrs lastnight,,:( kinda felt a bit of regret as she drove away with her new owner ...anyways,,the question i ,,what next ???????? wrx, evo, audi s3 ? or a mark 2 vrs ???? anyways just want to say thanks to all ye guys for tips, parts and advice while iv been hereon briskoda,,ps I MIGHT BE BACK SOON
  3. It's the sill lip I damaged , where the jack slots onto . Not the sill itself . Thank god . They seem to be very delicate indeed
  4. No holes . Just sills crumpled up . I'd nearly try an sort it some how as any future interested buyers would be surely put off by it
  5. Well my drivers side and passenger side sills are folded up into a mess after a bit of a quick front tyre change on my octy vrs using a trolley jack . I feel like a dope to be honest as I knew it would happen an I still went ahead and did it ... Now I'm worrying about failing an NCT test ( Irish version of MOT) .. Would new sills have to be welded in or should I just leave it ? I feel like a proper numpty
  6. I had mine done at 70k miles . My and my car is 9 years old an was on it's original cambelt . The belt itself looked like it would do another 70k miles . Although the water pump had began to leak slightly .
  7. Well it's looking like I will a citreon berlingo 1.6 hdi as a daily driver from next week on , so I may purchase myself something crazy as a weekend machine .
  8. i love the classic shape also ,,, id be using her every day so the mpg is putting me off,,my octy vrs is just on the limit of been half decent on returnin good mpg.. heres what i as thinking of,...love the colour http://cars.donedeal...le/cars/3787114
  9. im strongely thinking of getting a wrx impreza,,perhaps a 02/03 model.. iv always wanted one,, and ive gotten a fairly decent cash offer on my octy vrs.. i know this isnt a subaru forum and i might be turning my back on the skoda :( , but im just wondering have any of ye lads experince of wrx imprezas ? and how would the compare for day to day driving against my octy ???? mpg, bhp differences, etc etc
  10. I'm just wondering how long a factory clutch should last in an octy vrs? Mine seems to have 9 life's lol .. I bought car with 68k miles on the clock , with no mention of a clutch replacement .. I had her remapped at 70k miles and Theres now 89k miles on her and the clutch still bites like new
  11. Cheers mate . I will get a few pics of it all soon . I'd be over the moon if I got a result like yours
  12. Well I'd be more than happy with that . Are the bump strips hard to remove ?
