Mate - They are taking the piss - as pointed out, even with no warranty there is a lemon clause about major problems within reasonable mileage. So 12 months into owning the Octavia it started blowing massive smoke under boost on the highway. I ended up dropping it to Skoda about 10 times to fix it. ...

That's way too much. I sold my mk6 GTi as it was burning 500ml per 1000km. After 3 oil consumption tests VW told me it burned 497ml and was acceptable.. if it had burned 500 it would have been replaced. I gave up as dealing with dealers is a long long road Best of luck - with that kind of consumptio...

Yep - I ordered the schwarz pack - chrome go home.
I like how the front mount intercooler is visible..
I need darker tints, and 25mm lowering to make me happy.. the engine is insane on this model - up 100 torques to 350 from mk6 gti and 25bhp to 225 .. very good fun.

They're great cars !
I bought an octavia vRS wagon a few months ago and love it. The value for $ is unreal when you compare them to the VW equivalent.

I heard they weren't genuine.. just what I heard

A few of us are doing the 24 hours Lemons and we'd like to enter a fatty type 3. Anyone here for one for under a grand that would be a good Rae donor?

Pm please

Looking for a voltage regulator in good working order for a type 3. P/N 0-190-350-063 Preferably cheap so I can diagnose mine.

pm me

Would like them in good condition.. but let me know what you have.

Staf

you try Empi? He has some widened for sale

I've sourced one. It's ended up being a 5 prong and wasn't sure if it would be type 3 specific??
Would rather a relay that I can match the numbers and wires to. Thanks though

After a 4 prong relay that came in 69/70 type 3.

I had to look for a while and got a good deal on this one. The others I went to see would all sold on the day.

Wifey needed a new ride - and since I've had a mk3 VR6, mk4 gti thought it wise to get another. 2012 mk6 gti with 6 speed manual. Great ride. You can really feel the weight these days but tonnes of torque under boost which keeps you smiling http://i1150.photobucket.com/albums/o611/saltyboarder/photo...

I'll PM you the location

It's weiss.

I'll PM you the location

I've found one, looks to be abandoned in Collingwood - covered in dust hidden - Want the addy ?

Anyone got a set of 912 steelies they wanna get rid of?

I like the slammed beetles under the 'clearance' sign.

Thanks mate - appreciate it.
