Hi All,

Superb site - Very informative

I've been on a few times over the past few months looking for answers to all sorts of things, all of which I've found buried in the tomes of wisdom somewhere. I'm impressed!

Thought I'd finally register and say hi all

Yet another RS owner

2001, silver, had it from new and had 32k fun miles in it so far.

Just waiting for the warranty to run out

HI Sideways - welcome! :wave:

Your nickname reminds me of a little incident of mine...

Good to see you here, Sideways. Yes, there are many words of wisdom on Briskoda, although some need more searching for than others.

Jason, his name is sideways not "oops, feck I've put it on it's roof"

HTH

Hi Sideways and welcome to the site; glad you find it usefull, we aim to please

Out of interest; whats your fave cake? Mine is a Turnover, preferably with apples; but anything small and bouncy would do in it's place...

Cake question is for Jason's benefit; glad he can smile about it now

Jason's 'event' reminds me of the way I like fried eggs in the USA, ie easy over.

Ok, so "sideways", then "oops, feck I've put it on it's roof"

edited to extend the to Colin and Denis too...

Ahem... er, yes... wasn't going to mention the roof thing...

Wellll in my defense - it was an Astra so that's ok.

And it was coming up due for it's first MOT.

Bit low on petrol at the time too.

In fact, all in all it saved me a fortune

Hey, Jason - as a fellow roof skater from the sound of it, I'm curious to know...

Your brain tells you the brakes won't work with the wheels in the air but could you overcome the impulse to shove the pedal a bit harder just in case?

No, me neither

I admit I didn't do that. While the car was somersaulting through the air I remember curling my legs up - could have been a bad move if any serious impacts had been incurred, but as it was there weren't.

And as the car was scraping along the tarmac I just remember hanging on tight to the steering wheel, and when it stopped, I just went into auto pilot to get the f*** out that car as fast as I could! Then the realisation hits and the world falls around you... Luckily I had the support of some fellow Briskodians at the scene so felt OK.

I do have a mate though that when he had finished sliding down the road on his roof, he put the handbrake on...

Welcome to Briskoda. :wave:

It is so good that Jason finally has some company.

No, we do Octavias and Fabias (plus a handful of Favorits, Felicias and Estelles) as well

Welcome to Briskoda :wave:

Thought I'd echo those words too. Never knew there was so much interest in all things Skodai..(sic)

Had my little baby Fabia (combi) for 3 months and am itching to make it go longer,faster,stylish(er)..and all other superlatives ending in er.

Know where to look for a few more things now...cheers!
