LukasV 1.4

[LukasV]

Hello everyone my name is Lukas and I'm from Edinburgh few months ago I got my fabia 2006 1.4 TDI classic 71k on clock, I know is not 1.9 vrs but insurance prices are stupid for me just know: D I can’t afford to pay 200 pound a month so I will keep that car for a few years until I am gonna be older In those years I am gonna try to make my car as comfortable as I can. Not just for me and for my girlfriend.

 

I took car from the garage. The first thing which I notice that car was dirty: D The garage guy told me that family was using the car so I am not surprise. Seats with holes…. No point to clean them or try to hide everything so I need to find new ones.

I found wheels for me but I am not sure about them because they are 195/65 R15 (H). So I am thinking to keep alloys and to get new tires.

Don't forget that you need to declare them on your insurance, which will probably put your premiums up.

I think it is M12 I might be wrong tho mate

I didn't bother polishing mine I just bought some Depo Headlights instead look better IMO

It's a M10 spline bolt. NOT a torx/star bit.
