Naths vRS

Update - I've found the current owner Somewhere near South Shields!! Although it now has the old badge with chrome bit on the front which is a mystery. Back when I had it:

Yeah I remember her in that video too I didnt find out until i came on this site with the car, couldn't believe it, still can't now

Hi just wondering if the new owner was on here by chance!? I sold my Non Running VRS few years ago some chap came down from Manchester bought it rebuilt it and sold it on. Car is OE10 LVJ According to Reg Checker App: MOT Expires on 26/01/21 and TAX: 01/07/20 So it's still being used.. Sure i left stuff on there to do with this site.

Could anyone tell me if there should be a light in the glovebox? My grandfather is saying there should be its a 66 plate.

My old RED MkII Fabia VRS should be knocking around in Manchester somewhere..currently off the road, had engine rebuild (timing chain went, fried pistons), OE10 LVJ - keep a look out rebuilt it and put it up for sale..MOT till Jul 18, but no tax

john you stingy git update your photobucket account (or go over to Flickr)

I presume you can get pin striping from any car shop (motorworld, halfords etc),

I wont be on for a while due to the dispicable increase to PSN. Ifso it'll be bi-monthly!

yeah it does cost a bit to get set up, and not going for the mutts nuts of everything brings down the price a bit

been a while since this was updated....and there's been a few updates on the game too....be nice to have a group sesh again...this is the latest thing: Gun Running. First you need a bunker, then one of the Artic Lorrys, then similar to the last udate you get side missions etc, buy/steal supplies back to bumper for research purposes

So got myself a 17yr old Escort.....van 1.8D done 77400 miles not been clocked couple dents but it's expected will do for now. i will leave all my tutotirals up as I've been told they have helped several people and i'll leave this up for memories. Who knows I might get another Skoda in the near future.

Yeah its one of the best forums I'm signed up too, very active and have made some good friends on here, and I will hopefully get another Skoda one day, I'm just looking for a winter hack (just bid on a Austin Metro ) and looking at getting a crotch rocket for the summer months. Yeah as said above Mac, there are some good people here and some helpful, and I totally agree. Much appreciated rob, I'm glad I could help, I've probably got one more that needs uploading when i get round to it.

Yeah I'm really gutted to tell the truth one of my favourite cars i have owned. Looking at a winter hack and a motorbike for the summer

Guys as some of you know I sold my Fabia VRS for Spares/Repairs as I had took it to skoda as there was no compression between cylinders 2-4 and they quoted me £4000 for a new engine, with no mechanical knowledge i had to give in, it had been a great car for the past 5 yrs and probably would own another MK2 VRS. I'll loiter around now adn then and probably ask the odd question as my Grandfather has just got the New Octavia this hadn't put him off thank -fully.

Car got picked up today - sold for £1800 obligatory shot after i got the monies/before it got picked up.

Replied to your PM mate :thumbs:

So the car went in to Skoda on tuesday left it for a day and they ran a diagnostics and also done a compression test, and came back with no compression for cylinders 2, 3 & 4 they quoted me a new engine at £4,000 i told them leave it i'll have it towed back. so up for sale PM me a price and if the car doesn't go as a whole i will then split it.

what's your PSN Tag? Add me: Nifnaf87

Where is everyone?? Seen Minibeast & Swordfish on over the weekend, (or at least signed into PS) but none the likes of vrs, or Mort?? . I've been off as my PSN ran out and not bothered topping back up yet got few things i need to sort out first.

Speak to Ant-VRS he had a Fabia VRS (bow Octavia VRS) but I can't remember if he went that far with it

So I'd say we're a step closer. Thanks again vrs19td. Still owe you an OJ.

It does have sat nav not sure what's headunit it is, but it's a 66 plate, just wondering how to pair the mirror link

Thank you Glosrich
