I'll have a check - I'm pretty sure it's the same connector as a Mk1 Fabia and Mk1 Octavia as the member I bought it off (he's on this thread too) had another member with an Octavia come round with his copy of VCDS and code read it back in 2010.

If it's 1995 on you should be OK.

I don't have the adapter for pre 1995.

Cool, it's a 2000 (V reg) model.

Well so far, there's 5 of you that I've never met , so that's always nice.

Des, Taylor's hooking up with me on the way up, do you guys wanna come up in convoy since you live in the same area? Mike, you could always come the other way & meet them at Bluebell Hill? We could have yellow bookends from Gravesend!

Yep can do. I am in Lordswood if that helps.

so this still on for the 22nd ?? what sort of times are we looking at for this??

Ok peeps, shall we say 11am on the 22nd January 2012???

This seems to be the plan.

Nobody has suggested an alternative and it's what I was working to.

As above 11am 22nd January at the D1ck turpin on the A127

Are you still bringing your vagcom? I fitted my cruise control stalk at the weekend and need it activated on the ECU with vagcom - there's a few quid in it for you mate

Also what was the final outcome as to if this meet is at the Halfway House or the D1ck Turpin? Think it was the D1ck Turpin Lol not bothered either way though just don't want people to be confused by the title of the thread? Lol

Yes, I'm still bringing the VCDS.

I suggest you look into how to activate what you want though, then you can do it quite quickly.

Otherwise I might spend all day in and out of different cars!

Thanks mate, I have the instructions of how to activate it, should only take a few seconds

Its the D1ck Turpin pub on the A127 East bound before the A130. Post code is SS12 9HZ. Looking forward to this greatly.

As above, pop this postcode in and it should take you there, or google the D1ck turpin on A127 and that will show you also

Still on as far as I know meeting 11am

Happy to meet up at bluebell hill for a gentle (http://briskoda.net/forums/topic/225199-notice-of-intended-prosecution) cruise to rendezvous with Beryl. Des and / or the kent crew, do you want to suggest timings and RV points.

I'm presumming its also still the intention to cruise to souffend and get some nosebag??

Ok peeps, as it's getting close I thought I'd confirm that the meet is still on for 11am this Sunday the 22nd Of January and we are meeting at the D1ck Turpin on the A127,see earlier post for postcode etc. We will then cruise onward to a place of our mutual choice for some nosebag. Looking forward to this greatly. See ya'l on Sunday.

That postcode just gave me the 127 Diner and a petrol station, but I'm guessing it's along there somewhere. Any pointers?

Needless to say a google search just shows a billion forums that have met up there.

Once you are on the A127 eastbound, follow the road and keep an eye open for the A132 (posted Basildon and Wickford). Go straight past this, you will see a petrol station on the left, then about 600 yards later a cafe on the left and about 600 yard after that is the entrance to the pub.

For those not familiar with the area, the M25 north of the tunnel has works with specs cameras, the A127 has a fixed camera in the 40mph section just after the Dunton exit and from just north of Basildon onward you will be in a Specs controlled area, so take it easy guys.

I'll just keeping driving up and down the A127 until I find it!

I'll get there as early as I an and park my silver mk1 octy vrs out the front (not in lane 1) hopefully no one will miss it

For the Kent Guys, are we still meeting up on the way?? if so I'd suggest 0930 meet and go at bluebell hill, 1000 at Gravesend for a 1015 departure for our final destination on the other side. Any thoughts and any suggestions for specific points to meet, in the areas mentioned?

I'm coming from London on the A12, that should be fun... don't expect me there early!

As far as far as my area goes, I'd suggest under the A2, Taylor's gonna bell me when you're leaving BBH so I'll come & park under the A2 & you guys can just do a lap of the double roundabout?
