I fancied a cage and buckets for the mk2

I fancied a cage and buckets for the mk2

 

do it 

dude, ask dave taylor to sort you a cage like he did for corey bakers anni, i've asked him to look at doing one for my caddy and potentially the fabia

 

really like what youve done with it, ive had this urge with the fabia but keep restraining myself ahaa

 

see you tomorrow night if you're coming?

 

cheers luke and we'll see what the future holds with regards to a cage and other mods 

 

and you should go for it and do something crazy to the fabia

 

will be at the meet tomorrow night so probably see you down there

Mate if you think no one likes it you need to get yourself on fb! So much love off everyone that's seen it .

Mine needs 4 tyres, topmount, tracking and maybe one of the FK's has bust. Not sure till I strip it down.

This car is a tribute to the owner and all Octavia enthusiasts. Facebook guys love it and so do I. The fact the owner has always gone his own way and to his tastes makes the transformations even more cool. This takes balls and not everyone would do it even if they loved it but good on the OP. I for one think this car and the owner is a legend......

Cheers bowders,that was a great post and I appreciate your kind words

I wouldn't go as far as to say I'm any sort of legend but you hit the nail on the head in that I do what I feel like doing and go for it regardless of what people may think of the end result,its nice to read and hear positive comments but I can also take criticism as I realize you can't please everyone

I've seen some of the facebook comments tonight as a friend forwarded the link onto my wife and we've had a look and I was honestly surprised to see so many positive comments as I expected mainly negative.

Thanks to simon for putting it on Facebook and thanks to those that took pics of it at the national meet as I've viewed a few on the briskoda Facebook page too

Was me that put it up on fb

Phones been going mad due to comments and likes

I agree it is awesome!

Where did you get the bonnet grills and the arch extensions from mate?? if you dont mind me asking.,

 

 

I do really like this as its something out of the ordinary well done mate!!

This looks awesome! Love how it sits.

There is only one thing I'm not keen on and that's the rear diffuser and exhaust.

I love the wheels thou! They really suit the car.

Cheers for the comment and bonnet vents are just fibreglass replicas of focus Rs vents and the wheel arches are described as jdm arches,both can be sourced from ebay

Cheers again for the comment and it makes a change that it's just a couple of aspects of the car that you don't like as a lot of people hate everything about it haha

And found that my sunroof seal was leaking more than I thought at the weekend lol

Temporarily sealed around it with black sealer which appears to have done the job but will eventually make a blanking panel and dump the sunroof mechanism

Plenty of towels on seat lol

Yes i scooped out the water and dried it out as best i can with a towel and the cushions are off the seat and have been drying in the sun,hopefully the seat will dry out fully before the weekend as i dont want a wet bum on route to vw festival

Lol.

I've just bought another mk3 so the skoda may not see any shows this year now

I hate leaky sunroofs had one on my clio but never got around to fixing it.

Gaffa tape is your friend if you are a clio owner did mine with frame sealant and now it works perfectly!

Not much of an update but got a couple of pics that the mrs stole off Facebook and sent to me

First one was a couple of weeks back at vw festival

And this one was at hull motor show last weekend

Thanks to the photographers

Got to order a clutch and flywheel kit shortly as I've got the cash waiting now and then going to sell my old interior and a few other bits I've got laying around and put that money towards a used cupra r or Porsche brake set up I think.

well you have inspired me and tomorrow i will get some pictures up for you

Well as the tax runs out at the end of the month and I don't see me using it anytime soon I've sorn'd it

It's been sat parked up on the back drive since August and not moved and don't know when it will move again so it was the best and cheapest option.

A friend sent me this pic of the car that he spotted in the vw festival show report in pvw magazine.

Done anymore with it dude?

No dude,I sorn'd it and parked it up round the back of my house and not touched it since so it's probably all damp and moldy inside like it was the other winter but can't say I really care as I've lost interest.

Let me look after it for you lol

Let me look after it for you lol

Lol

It's weird cos I cant bring myself to get rid or to break it,I think it's cos I don't really need a car with me know having a company vehicle now so I wouldn't but a replacement and I think it would be weird not having my own car so for now it can stay as a garden ornament and maybe one day I'll feel like doing something with it

Tell me this will be at the National or some other large meets this year? I would love to see this in the metal.

What vents did you use on it mate was thinking of putting vents on my fabia.
