Hi all,

Thanks for the very warm welcome! :)

I will definatley search before I post any queries I might have.

@ Big Dave... Thats good to hear as I do love my roadster as much as I did when I first bought it!!!! But I test drove the Skoda Monday and I absolutely loved it! Looking foward to Sat!

One thing im sure you wont miss from the smart is that awful gearbox! I test drove a brabus last summer and if they had a manual alternative id have one now. Great looking cars, extremely fun to drive but the gearbox was worse than the sensodrive on my c2 and that was awful!!

Welcome btw :thumbup:

Thanks! ;-)

They are pretty bad! I cannot wait to go back to a manual!!!!!! It's so much better.

Yes the roadsters are quite unique in terms of styling.... :-( (im feeling a little upset already)!!!!!!

welcome and enjoy your vrs when you get it any plans or just standard for a bit

@ VRSADZ - The only thing I think I'll be doing to the VRS is changing the headlights to those white ones as they look hot! lol.

Forgive me, but I don't know what they are called either!! All I know is, is they are xenon bulbs? I have not even checked if you can get them to fit a VRS yet. I assume you can get them though..... Off to search ebay!!!!!!! lol.

@ VRSADZ - maybe a remap... just maybe. I have heard all about how even more crazy they make the car!! I would like to give the new VW GTI a run for it's money!!!!!!

Its black on a 54 plate... with 26k

Hid bulbs im guessing you mean then?

It could be a HID kit? There are alot out there - Just make sure you get the right kit and bulb size!

An from experience dont buy one of the cheap ebay kits as they will blow up in a matter of months! Spend a little more and get them from hids4u.co.uk and drop me a pm before hand as i have some coupon codes to save upto £40!

Pukka!

Thanks for the kind advice!

I bought my last bulbs on ebay for the Roadie and they always blew really quickly and I always wandered why they were so cheap!!!! Now I know!!!!!!!!!!

Cooool!

Hello friend... :D

If you happen to find any more coupon codes - Would it be possible for me to have them? I'm in need of a HID kit for 'Project X'.

(Please do give priority to XjimjamX as this is her thread - Sorry I don't mean to gate crash. Just saves a wanted add!)

Many thanks,

sound like you landed yourself a bargain 54 reg with 26k, bought mine a year ago and had that mileage on u buy it private or from a garage. HID kit would look good imo. post some pics of when you get it.

You have a pm rob :thumbup:

I went for 5000k antiglare bulbs and they look great, look OEM but just so fresh as its a crystal clear white. No blue tint to it but im not into the bluer 6k and 8k kits myself :thumbup:

  • Author

Listen... Im not fussed on having those codes... it'll be weeks before I buy anything as have just got the car anyway. :-)

I will deff post up a pic after I have picked her up on Sat... Im wetting my panties, Im really that excited!!!!!!!!!

Im crazy.... Be warned!!!!!!

*laughs hard*
