Featured Replies

..we don't all drive tractors...!

My names James from the Lincoln, Lincolnshire, the home county of a terrible football team, the potato and the fabulous Sausage!

I've been told this is the best place to come for Skoda banter and info.

I've just picked up a 06 plate Octavia VRS.

My previous car was a 2003 BMW e46 330ci. Miss it already but I had it two years an the gear box was starting to concern me so the time was right for it to go.

The Octavia.

Ive a few plans for the octavia, but to start with I need to get it booked into paint for a scrape on the bumper and some paint on the nearside front wing.

Also, not sure if anyone can help, but I have an annoying rattle. Im 90% certain its trim and its coming from the rear near side. Any ideas?

Also when its dark and my lights are on, i can see a very faint flicker from the lights, and a dimming of them (and interior lights if they are on) when the steering wheels turned.

Anyway thats me!

James.

Welcome to the forum from another Lincolnshire resident.

Octavia looks good, in the best colour too.

Welcome to Brisky, always good for help on here, I'm also a Lincolnshire resident (in theory), but in fact only SWMBO and my cars live there since my employer thinks I should work away (although 14 months away out of my first 22 on the job does seem quite a lot!)

Welcome from another Lincoln yellowbelly :)

Hello and Welcome to Briskoda!

 

Cheers,
Ste.
