Excellent. Sounds nasty. 

 

I have DTUK on my diesel at the moment. They are really decent kit. 

 

Unfortunately I’ll have to get rid of the box as they can’t swap the software from the diesel to petrol.

You might wanna consider finding a decent wrapper to wrap the roof as the sun roof can look better with a complete black roof

Talk to Andrew, he will sort you out a good deal on a TSI one, ITS A PITA to fit though

Is it cheaper/easier to wrap the exsisting spoiler?

Possibly but I wanted factory painted and it was only £160, I'll be able to sell the old one I'm sure.

Ordering soon on a PCH. Only covering 10k per year. Is the service and maintenance worth having? 

[Famous_Afro_Jay]

in my PCH it was an extra £35 pm so I didn't think it was worth it so I can get it all at trade. If I couldn't then I'd have included it.

Jay, good to hear from you mate, come down the meon hut if you wanna try my 245 out, next meet Tuesday 7th November. I tell you which map to ask Andrew @DTUK for, its mind blowing.

Good to hear from you too. After the joys of BMW and Audi I'm coming back lol

 

Yep, I'll be there, I'll bring my wife's Fabia  Looking forwards to it, I've also not driven a 245 yet. I'm definitely going to get the power box and pedal box too. Maybe a cheeky Remus exhaust too.

When I can. I've been quite ill this year so unable to play but hopefully everything will start to get sorted early next year and I can get back to it.

Ok mate, we'll catch up more on the 7th, don't wanna clogg up the thread.

Ordered mine yesterday 16 week wait is going to take for ever.... 

 

Manual Moonwhite 245 Estate, no other options selected, free mudflaps though!

 

[matt9407]

Ordered mine last night too.

 

Gone for a 245 DSG Hatch in the standard red colour with red stitching.

 

Have not added any options as they seem well specced as standard. Never owned a Skoda before but it will be my co-daily along with my BMW 120D which I simply refuse to sell! (Absolutely love it)

[Famous_Afro_Jay]

I have been spoiled by company cars so I went a bit mad with the options. Have you also been quoted 20 weeks?

[ScottyNS]

Hi everyone, I ordered my first vRS 245 a couple of weeks ago now, really looking forward to it. I caught it on a lease deal (may look to buy it later if it’s an option). Looking at around Feb though, so may see about delaying until March for the new reg. 

 

I’ve ordered a red vRS, petrol, hatchback, manual and no other options - hope I don’t regret skipping out on dcc!

My plan is to buy it at the end of the lease if possible. Only if it makes sense of course

[martysparty99]

Snap except I went for the rear camera, delivery in march for the new plate :-)

Probably just go with a plug-in WiFi option, plugged into the power socket in the boot?  £10 a month for 2GB: https://store.three.co.uk/view/content/mbasket?ID=1299

Yes, thanks, this is what I have done, although it would be good it I could get the boot 12v socket to go off when the ignition is off :-S

Front wheel drive is the issue. 

245bhp with 4WD & you'd be looking at low 6s. 

Definitely the biggest criticism of a really good car, 4WD would make this incredible.

Its good off the line but you have to get rolling before you feed the power in.

So, at the slight risk of going off topic, when will Skoda give us a petrol 4WD vRS?

 

230 or 245 matters not, because it can be mapped. If Seat can have the hardware, why not us?

 

That would prevent people leaving the brand for VW or Seat. 

 

I would buy one tomorrow. I don’t like the Seats & the Golf R Estate is a tad pricey.
