Hello! possible future Fabia vrs buyer here...

30 April, 200818 yr

Just a polite hello as am looking more closely into selling my current wheels and getting a vrs.

Not much to say really, currently have a 210Bhp (about 180ftlb)mx-5 with a shedload of mods (turbo, standalone ecu, 3.5" turbo exhaust, FMIC/etc) a lot of money spent and fancy a change into something completely different, and one where you dont need to keep a socket set in the boot :cool:

I have had the car for over 6 years and just fancy a change of scenery (and boot space!)

whyyoulittle.co.uk/mx5/look/Img_1816.jpg (please add www., need to edit my web leeching rules!)

(got no pics of the engine bay!)

so just looking around to see whats what and get a feel for the car and the like.

Also the 50mpg, 250ftlb torque and dirt cheap insurance and road tax helps

***Edit***

forgot about the .htaccess to stop leeching!

my site is

If that's your plan then go for it. It's a very simple and painless process from past experience but admittedly that was some time ago now since I last ran Linux. I have a 2017 Asus X555 (I think it is) that's now redundant but serviceable I was thinking of wiping the SSD and installing Linux on. Might be worthy of a topic in the Tech Shed for more input. By the way, I highly recommend upping your Vitamin D from around September when the days start getting shorter. I've done that for a couple of

Door Umbrella

Johngerard · 21 hours ago21 hr

Neigbour with a Fabia Mk4 called me recently, his drivers door and the rear (right) passenger doors were partly open with what looked like a stainless steel rod jamming the two doors in their partly open/closed positions, to make a long story short, it was the door umbrella that apparently had shot out somehow or other and jammed the two doors, he had partially opened the back door to let his dog out I think and had let his own door partially open, or something like that. The car was still unde

CD PLAYER

SwallownAmazon · 21 minutes ago21 min

One of the things I miss in my TDi vRS Mk 3 is the CD player in the boot that I had in the much-missed Mk 2. Has anyone had any experience of a separate CD player in the car playing back through the "Media" part of the infotainment system? I do have music in my Galaxy A26 phone but I can't seem to get it to play albums in the car, it will only play one single track at a time.

Skoda Superb Mk2 - Bolero Radio, problems with the BT player

gabygabriel03 · 26 minutes ago26 min

Hi, so I've bought a superb from 2012 that has the Bolero radio unit, it works fine but the Bluetooth has been very annoying with the way it functions. The main problem is that when I start the car and my phone connects to BT and I play music, the radio doesn't show song information and touch controls on the screen don't "activate". Now the frustrating part is that if I then disconnect my phone and reconnect it everything works as intended, i can change songs and it shows what song is playing.

Thoughts on buying a 2007 2.0 PD TDI (auto) Octavia estate?

smokeyjon · 3 June3 Jun

Hi. I know there's a 'considering buying' forum but this is about an oldie so I thought this may be a better place to post...(a query for the long committed fans?)? I already have a 2005 Octavia Estate (1.9TDI PD105) and it is by a country mile the BEST car I have EVER owned. I bought it in 2013 for <£2.5k and apart from needing to do the clutch straight away it hasn't needed much over the 80k miles I've done in it since. However it is close to 180k miles now, the clutch is juddering and
