Hi there everybody,

It's Bradley McMullan and I have been a member of the forum for many years,joining with the purchase of my Skoda Fabia vRS in 2004.

Since then I have had (been inflicted with) a honda civic on lease followed by the car i always wanted,a Skoda Octavia vRS in black magic metallic,which sadly got vandalised and I was not happy with it after the paint repairs.

I bought a Ford Fiesta ST in blue in december which was a bit of a snap decision and i traded in the Octavia for this,but have not been able to get into it like my Skodas,so i have swapped it with n7eja and ~I have inherited Skoda Octavia vRS WRC number 73.

I am pleased to be back in a Skoda and especially a special one like this,which is something i'm very proud to be driving :-).

Currently in candy white with no decals as i'm sure the forum regulars are aware-so I have been to Skoda where the parts man was very helpful in sourcing all the codes for the Skoda original decals to put the motor back to "factory settings" if you like.

Sadly,the price is currently prohibitive as it is hovering around the £1000 figure,but i'm hoping very much to be able to afford this work at some point in the future.

Also i made enquiries at the factory in Mlada Boleslav on my visit 2 weeks ago,but the girl who was conducting our factory tour wasn't greatly clued up on decals,

hehe..maybe she thought I just another mad Englishman with bizarre requests for obscure items :-)

well,thats all for now :-)

You lucky man. I've always admired that motor from a far.

Did it come with the 19" white alloys that it was wearing not so long ago?

Get some pics up immediately!!!!!

Hello :-)

Well,if you want to have a look,mr sausage,you are welcome,as,like you,the car is now in Leeds-lol!

As i am a standard car fan,i'd like it to look as it came out of the factory in all honesty-so it will run on the standard wheels which i am tempted to send away for refurbishing.

cheers

Welcome back mate Any photos?

green is the way forward :-)...

Welcome to Freedom, Brad, and your new identity.

Thanks for your help,Denis..

I have taken a lot of advice from your pages in the past so i think it's only right that i contribute now by joining freedom.

You are welcome. If you fancy a change of member title too, ie from Briskodian, you can do that via My Settings - Profile - Profile Information.

Saw you in actual real life only about an hour ago but here's an e-hi -

Shame you can't make it tonight, and hopefully we can get all three white variants together for a photo roll call one day!
