Forward Motors of Luton are offering 0% finance on new Fabias and Octavias registered by 30th September PLUS, for this month only, 3 years/30,000 miles free servicing. Might be worth seeing what they can deliver by the 30th deadline.

PS They have a good reputation with Briskoda members.

PPS Just noticed some small print. The 0% finance does not apply to the Fabia 1.2 (54bhp) 5 dr Classic, the Fabia vRS and the 1.4 TDI PD Diesel.

The deal i got on my vRS was...

Magic black

Front mudflaps

0% finance

p.s. I know liverpool is a treck but that would help you to put those pre jabba miles on or ask your dealer to match them.

Hi,

Andy, if you are looking for other dealers in North Essex I can heartily recomend R H Hayes in Little Clacton. Might be a good idea to get a little dealer competition going.

Howard,

Halfords do some metal grill mesh. I quite fancied the Jaguar look like mesh but reckon the holes are too big and tempting fate i.e stones through and into my radiator.

They do a mesh with small holes which look goods but not as good as the Jag look-alike.

Per sheet this is

Whoo Hoo! Trip to Halford paid dividends. Got some ripspeed mesh - pretty sturdy stuff - and some matt black spray paint. Its not very pretty, so it will be going *behind* the existing grille.

I picked up my black VRS Octy 5 weeks ago from Sparshatts of Fareham for

The 'ccr' stands for the last company I used to work for - 'Colchester Car Radio'. I have used this username for 5 or so years now, so i just keep it the same now. I now work for a company called 'Car Audio Centre' but using the name Andy_CAC doesn't seem right !!

Andy,

If you are dealing with Simon at Marshalls give him my regards, He found my 4x4 for me earlier this year

after one of his customers was selling it after 3 weeks of ownership (new company car etc)

Simon was very helpful even though marshalls nothing out of it.

Tell him the 4x4 is partially modded & will be off on the Cannonball in a few weeks, rest of the mods to follow later this year

How much for the black cable ties, Howard, or do you have an alternative idea for securing the mesh?

I'll know more when I've figured it out at the weekend!!

BTW - the car's going in next Thursday for the condenser to be replaced - hence my keenness to get on with it!!

Andy

Me , me , me. (who said I was self centred ?).

I'm a regular(ish) customer of Colchester Care Radio and had the ICE upgraded there for the RS around January time. If you were working there then, maybe you remember the car ?

Anyway, there are several other RSs around North Essex (I regularly see another yellow one and a silver one) but don't think there is anyone else on this forum!
