  1. Thanks for the comments guys! Still waiting for my Reiger diffuser! Hermes managed to successfully misplace it so I'm having to go through their claims procedure which is very slow this time of year! This car really is the perfect car! Massive inside, looks great, goes well and is cheap to run! I was considering selling it and getting an m235i but I don't think I can part with it! Sneaky photo in the work car park!
  2. Set of original MK3 Octavia VRS wheels with tyres. Tyres are 225/40/18 Bridgestone Potenza S001 as originally fitted by Skoda. Tread depths are approx 6mm on the rear tyres and 4.5 fronts. Wheel specification: Wheel size: 18x7.5 Wheel offset et51 PCD 5x112 Wheels are in overall very good conditions apart from a small amount of curb rash on what was the front left wheel but is hardly noticeable - please see pictures for reference. Looking for £650 but am open to offers. Any questions please don't hesitate to ask. Collection only from Crewe CW1 postcode.
  3. Hello all, Had my Octavia about 18 months now and always planned to make a few subtle changes! Spec as follows Race Blue 14MY Octavia VRS TDi Black Pack Sunset glass Cruise control As she stood until recently I've now put a set of 19x8 et41 Volkswagen Motorsport wheels with 235/35/19 Michelin Pilot Supersport tyres and lowered her on H&R springs. I've got a Reiger diffuser to fit and then I think I'll be more or less done! Makes for a very good daily driver!
  4. Hello! I have a 1.6tdi monte carlo and it looks like the arches are terrified of the wheels. So I'm after a set of coilovers, I've had cars with coil overs before, from £150 ebay coilovers to £800 KW's. Both where great for what I wanted them for... Just after some advice/opiinions of the coilover options for the fabia... My budget is around £500 and I want to give the car a good drop. Currently got my eyes on the FK Highsport as they seem to go the lowest and are pretty cheap! http://www.madmotors.co.uk/suspension/skoda-suspension/skoda-fabia-suspension/skoda-fabia-coilovers/fk-highsport-coilovers-skoda-fabia-5j-07.html
  5. Which is the Columbus? Can someone link me up? What is involved in swapping them? Is I fairly straight forward? My car has mdi and maxidot...
  6. Has anyone fitted the Amundsen sat nav to a fabia that didnt have it as standard? Are they available to buy or does it have to bee direct from skoda when new?
  7. Thinking of wheels for my Monte Carlo, I like the standard ones but want something a bit different... Just wondering what people have put on the Fabia 2's and how they look, also what spec wheel are you running? Rim Diameter, width, offset and tyre specs, also what suspension your running! I look forward to seeing what people have!!!
  8. Sweet. I'm looking at a few different sets of wheels for it now... Can anyone tell me the offset of the standard Monte Carlo Wheels?
  9. Have you got a link for the bulbs? The standard ones are a massive improvement over the candles in the mx5 :p
  10. Hi, I'm Dave, picked up my new Monte Carlo 1,6tdi 105 after trying to decide on a good daily driver for a couple of months! The reason I needed a daily was because my mx5 became a little unuseable and tiresome for the daily hack... It looks like this... Whilst I love the MX5 and its completly hillarious to own and drive, it is incredably inpractical, uneconomical, deafaning, has the waterproof properties of a sieve and has only two seats. So it will be retired to the garage for more stupidity. So for every day I have bought this. Picked it up today with 10miles on the clock. Full Spec: Candy White Skoda Fabia Monte Carlo 1.6tdi 105bhp Options: On Board Computer Climate Control Cruise Control Spare Wheel Ipod Connection This is what it looks like: So far I'm very please with it! It's quiet, climate control is awesome, I'm not going deaf inside it and its waterproof! So its a massive improvement already :p I have a few plans, mainly cosmetic things! I want to get a new set of decent bulbs for my headlights, number plate lights and indicators (can anyone recommend any?) tint the fog/DRL's yellow with some laminex, pressed plates and plate holders, miltek exhaust (if they will make me one :p) and some coilovers (again recomendations please!) I also work at a tuning company in Bromsgrove, and we have very recently been able to tune these so this will get some dyno time and the map will be extensively tested (once I've got a few miles on her!)
