Sorted out the 7 day free insurance for collection on the 29th jan

cleaned it inside and out, and roadtested a mk2 fabia vrs

Same as me yesterday, love it!! LOL

I've been busy today:

Fixed the glovebox light;

Put in a set of LED H3 bulbs in front foglights;

Put in LED bulbs in most of the remaining interior lights - boot, main & map lights. Doors already done, Glovebox to do.;

Replaced fuse #4, having blown it during replacing boot light.

Elephant hose Mod;

Re-attached EGR;

Realised the exhaust heat shield is a little loose;

Ordered Superpro bush for engine steady;

& Decided it needs a damn good clean!

Replaced head gasket on my 278,000 mile Estelle 120L5. Apparantly not covered under warranty. :'(

Washed it for the 1st time since August 2010. I forgot how good it looks clean

Took my roof rack off,now that my new shed has arrived.....I put it on the car as there was nowhere else to store it.

Fitted my new intake manifold then found I've bought the wrong injector seats. Doh!

I did relocate the catch can, tidy some wires a bit and do some of the catch can pipework so not a complete failure.

But the car's still in bits :(

Decided to extract them from my old manifold after buying the tool I didn't want to buy and broke two. Bugger.

Filled the boot, back seat and front seats with 114 new 2` x1`kitchen floor tiles, as the tiler couldnt pick them up

Loved the lowrider look, with the sills 2 inch of the floor, but hated the detour away from the speedhumps on the way home

Okay I am officially an idiot.

They do fit. Ignore everything.

Getting there with the reassembly. Last few pipes are proving somewhat difficult to get on.

New catch can pipework

Removed this

Replaced with this:

Just finished putting the engine back together. Couple of things still to tidy up but it starts - yay!

I am in SWMBO's serious bad books for spending so much time on it.

Looking really good Rob.

I personally would be really worried if I wasn't in my SWMBO's bad books for spending/tinkering with the car

I took a black sack FULL of bits and bobs laying around in my car. No wonder I've only been getting 52mpg (bangs head)

All ready for it's and my first FULL interior valet. Bless

Washed it for the 1st time since August 2010. I forgot how good it looks clean

Go and sit on the naughty step!!!

SWMBO's Ferbi.....

Washed, wiped, waxed, sealed, tyres dressed, glass cleaned hoovered, new car smell....... for the last time :'(

Never mind, new Ferbi vRS tomorrow and I can do it all again

Well I did quite a bit to my Yeti today.

I replaced the orange rear indicators with silver ones, fitted the LED boot light (what a difference that makes!), fitted an ejector seat, a smoke screen maker, a silver chrome effect cupholder surround and fitted my detachable towbar for the first time to see how it works!

Not a Skoda, but still figured this is the most appropriate thread. Today I cleaned my Lupo (despite it only being washed yesterday) intending to polish it, but it got dark so will have to do that in the morning before I go job hunting at car dealerships .

Nice! Rear lights look much better.

Love the James Bond accessories

Must, must remember to open the sunroof BEFORE pressing that Ejector seat button though!

Collected the new Ferbi vRS.... Sorted out he day run lights after the dealer got confused........

Had a touser accident over the sheer powerrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr of the blooming thing...... Mrs Stig passed a 355, BMW M3 and a Scooby Imprezza all in the space of 1 mile at "cough" mph!!

Drove it to Bluwater and back, enjoyed every supercharged mile :p
