After a few years away and various other cars/vans I seem to have landed back in a mk2 vrs but an estate this time. 

I wasn't looking for another skoda tbh I was looking at various other estates after I fell out with my van, something I could fit the family in aswell as my 9 month old staffy. This popped up like it was fate and its absolutely great. Bit rough around the edges but drives great and has just had the timing chain and associated parts done. 

Dog approves. 

Chrome grille surround was the first to go, hate chrome so black it is. Had to leave the lights in as they've chopped the grille to fit them, new badges ordered, stereo fascia and wiring ordered so I can fit my pioneer double din too

Bolero out pioneer in 

New badges 

Slamming it when?

Haha needs wheels 1st lol. 

Lost one of the lights out the grille as they were a bodge anyway which meant holes where it'd been chopped about so replaced that. No more police car

Price was right so ramair fitted 

 

And so it begins.........

 

 

 

Looking good.

It's a slippery slope you're on now. One mod leads to another & before you know it your bank account is empty & the Mrs is wondering where the new kitchen fund has gone. 😁

Tell me about it! This Briskoda lark is a bad influence.

3rd one now

Love this weather lol

 

Acquired some mk6 skirts off my lad that were destined for the scrap bin, bit of fettling and some tidying up and they'll be spot on. Bit different from the normal mk5 ones that are the usual choice too.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Had a mirror indicator fail, joined the dynamic brigade and the Coilovers turned up ready to be fitted at the weekend.

Lovely weather for messing about on cars 

And done. Not set to low still has to be useable unlike the last one

 

 

 

 

 

 

I think I can still get my shoe in that gap

Had my orders to keep it sensible this time, rears are wound fully down though. Family trip to France coming up so can't 

Go mad. Once that's done then maybe we can go all out

 

 

 

Just spotted your motor going down the a57. 

Looking good 👍

I've seen a few that way on lately, my youngest has just started at the horse rescue place past Saxilby so I'm on taxi duties after work.

 

Car looks good 👍🏻 when you say mk6 skirts, do you mean mk6 golf?

Yeah mk6 golf, they're slightly different to the mk5 ones and need a little trimming round the bottom of the rear door shuts from what I saw on the initial test fit. Weathers not been great so I've not had time really to get them on and have a proper look. I do have another front bumper I'm smoothing the plate mount out of and I'm trying to get hold of a cheap rear bumper so I can send them all to paint at the same time without having to have the car off the road for long.
