  • Picked up the new VRS: 2013 Fabia VRS by Graeme_Smith, on Flickr

  • Popped to the garage at lunchtime to swap coolant temp sensor. I don't think it's the problem but it can't hurt. Going to swap O2 sensor later for the spare I have. Went well, all sorted in 5 mins. T

  • modified the cup holder     It's now a hobnob holder

Looks good. Did you just get summer rubber swapped onto the Pegasus wheels? Or do you have another set with the winter set on it?

Fitted new blue exteriour mirror glass , both sides, very slight spots appearing, no scratches ( I know OCD :giggle: ) so replaced, will sell them for a tenner, on Brisky, new ones are £105 with vat!

Top edge slight spots

Unfortunatly I don't have a spare set of wheels so have to pay to have the tyres swapped on the same wheels :( . I'd love a 2nd set of Pegasus wheels but they rarely come up for sale.

Wouldn't you consider another style of wheel, maybe Zeniths in 17 or 18" form? Does make it much easier I must say, being able to put the Pegasus set away until October time :thumbup:

I've been after a set of Pegasus and they are like Chickens teeth.

Took the dremel to my back bumper around the exhaust cutout to get my splitter to fit properly. Gave it the first couple of coats of black paint. Was going to leave as bare black plastic but it had a few stress marks in the plastic.

I don't actually like them all that much, but use them with my winter rubber. But whenever I come to sell I'd want it to go on its proper wheels, which is why I've not put my set up for sale :)

Fitted the Skoda UK Motorsport keyring, like the 1 above and just picked up my 17" spiders from the Lake District. Just waiting for them to have the new tyres put on and be fitted. :)

Added the stainless steel rings (from SuperSkoda.com) around the air-con control dials on Superb Elegance - looks much better!!!!!

Filled mine up with Diesel.

Snow foamed it.... second time doing this, I'm not really convinced it does much on a mildly dirty car :(

Make sure you've got the mixture right, and that it's thick enough to hang onto the paintwork for a few minutes, but not too thick that you end up applying a foam blanket to the car :)

It does work :thumbup:

Oh, and mine's in for a service today :)

Fitted my OEM Bluetooth Kit + coded it :happy:

I have considered a set of 2nd wheels, my preference is for some Pegasus wheels as I really like them and think the suit the car well, I'm not a fan of the Zeniths & wouldnt want togo 18" with the state of the roads round here, the ride is firm enough as it is.

To be fair having not tried winter tyres before, I wasn't sure I believed the hype & was comfortably enough using SWMBO's 4wd through the winter but a cheap set of used winter tyres came up so thought I would try them out over this winter then make up my mind this year about wheels/tyres

Drove next to a car with a similar engine size to my old metro. It must have been almost red lining and I was driving to save diesel and keeping along side.

:) second day of owning the vRS and think its brill.

Washed the car today ready for the trip to East Sussex tomorrow.

Now back from the garage with a clean bill of health.

Always nice driving after you know it's running on fresh oil and everything's been checked over :)

Serviced, MOT'd (cost me loads, needed a new bulb :@), new recall coil packs. :D

Spiders fitted and wheel alignment checked out perfectly. :)

Spent a bit of tim on the felicia today, drilled a few holes in the floorpan and welded some nuts on so I can bolt a mk3 golf gear linkage in.. Oh and I burnt me fingers too.

Washed and hoovered it out along with SWMBO's Suzuki Jimny

Good old wash & polish tonight.

All I managed on my Superb II was to stick my new briskoda sticker in the back window :)

That was after spending half the afternoon washing the wife's Fabia II.

Mine gets washed tomorrow :thumbup:

Left it next to the demolition site near work so it's dirty again...
