[bobob]

If you like it that much, keep it

Power steering is only going to come into its own at low speed manoevers, most of the time you wont notice.

if i had my old mk1 back that had no pas. i would still put some 195's on it. just means you have to park at high speed

can you not find a scrapped car at the scrapper and rip the guts out of it for power steering?

:confused:

i think long as its for that type of car (so like a felicia with power steering) it shudnt be a problem just need things such us the pump and other bits an bobs:D

but i heard the labour of putting it in is a pocket denter!

Pumping up the front tyres a few extra PSI would help.

I have now 175/60r14 tires on felicia and there is not much difference in steering (1,3 mpi, no power-steering). Not to mention that car now looks better then related to original 165/70r13.

When I drove a felicia with 195/50r15 wheels... well, it is a major difference. But, looking at the bright side, you can save some money by steering instead of going to gym

not the best of pics i know but thats how i bought the car :( except for the front dent one of my friends done tht wit his megane (some friend)

[TeflonTom]

perfect

[anewman]

The front dent should be easy enough to sort, should be just one panel at the front so you could try removed and straighten it or find a donor from a scrappy. I didn't notice it till you mentioned it to be honest Just thought the badge was missing.

[pinkskud]

leave it as is! street sleeper!

[Jaymz]

What's wrong with the felicia? I'd rather have a felicia than my favorit I would think. Would have thought going to a favorit would be a downgrade

Pretty much all that's different is the felicia had more VW involvement, a wider range of engines beyond the Skoda 1.3 (to include the VW engines), and is newer. The felicia shares a number of parts with the favorits.

If you really want to get an older Skoda maybe Rapid, estelle etc.? Would be very different and fun to drive I'm sure
