Took the rear view mirror off whilst fitting my dashcam then that happened when I tried putting the mirror back on. £200 for a new windscreen

Why didn't you get it replaced on the insurance, it would only have cost £75 for the excess.

I ended up with the rear view mirror coming off in my hand (leaving the bracket), you just turn it 90 degrees from centre and fit it that way - the solution I mention is on these forums somewhere.

I checked my policy and it turns out I wasn't covered.

Have you read Trevs build thread? It's a cracker! I'd like to do something to it myself but I've no idea what (other than the new windscreen 😅)

I have indeed. Both threads actually! You should do something unique to it (seat retrim???)

Where'd you get the Skoda Motorsport plate surrounds from? Did they come with the car?

Drove in some of the worst conditions today, but it was a blast nevertheless.

Nightmare this morning. Was 15 miles from home when I got out of the car to get something out of the boot and the car decided to lock itself with the keys in the ignition and the engine still running. I am in the RAC but my RAC card and phone were locked in the car so I had to smash the passenger side front window so I could drive home. Just as well it wasn't raining. When I say I had to smash the window, I mean I tried about ten times to break it but it was so tough that I couldn't smash it. Eventually, a young guy passing by used an ice skate blade to smash it, but it still took him 5 goes before it went. Spent three hours this afternoon cleaning glass out of the car. Had to take the seats out as the glass was absolutely everywhere. Have bought a used window from ebay. Seeing the interior covered in glass was quite upsetting as I always keep it spotless inside.  When the window arrives I will have to clean all the glass that will be inside the door when I get the carrier off. Nothing has gone right for me lately.

Sorry that this happened to you, Lee. It doesn't sound pleasant. 

 

I hope you can get that sorted soon.

Nice one. I take it you're getting on well with it? At least you wouldn't have to worry about losing it in car parks.

My wee red nugget in all it's unclean (at least externally, inside it is pristine) glory... got plenty things planned for it currently.
