    Are they not allowed anymore? That’s mad.

    I just jam the fuel cap into the trigger anyway.

    Unfortunately. :(

    Funny enough that's the only garage I know of with working trigger locks. Why they get my business every time.

    I was trying to see had you a pin or something in the trigger. Filling the van is painful this weather. Car looks great, paint and chrome looks really good on it

    One month into my ownership and I've had to weld the back box back on and free up a seized rear caliper which managed to chew through a set of brand new Brembo pads. :pac:
    That's 172,000km of Japanese reliability on some really bad triangles.

    It's a hoot though.

    This was just under 4 weeks worth of driving. I thought it felt a little tight but didn't expect it to be that bad.

    What the hell its Friday. Twins?? Stuttgart brothers from a different mother.
    I really need some sort of naming convention for them?? Beauty and the Beast??

    Both off the road at the moment, little one will go on in May after a few PM jobs, then I'll start on the monster and put it on in August. Poxy 3 or 6 month tax rule is a real pain for this kind of messing.

    Yeah they’re a great design. They don’t look as old as they are at all. The brother just bought the new sport model in from Japan. Lovely car.

    That's my old car, bought it from new and kept it for a few months before trading it in. Loved it and always regretted getting rid of it

    Went for a blast down the old military road last weekend so brought the car to 5Star Auto Valet in Baldoyle for a clean today, seriously impressed with their work.

    So we've only gone and bought a Skoda! A "lengthy" 10-12 week wait for collection but can't wait, never owned new before.
    Collection day countdown, 5 days...!

    One that’s been thrown into a few ditches, strangely familiar but not as tight as you remember.

    Looks like a stretch between Sally Gap and Viewpoint, great road on the Dublin side, very bouncy on the Wicklow side.

    It's finally here, over the moon! The Tiguan has served us well; it's been nearly 3 years since we bought it and it gave us nearly 100,000KMs of great driving. Only ever asked us of a service, although it was due tyres, two painted panels (due to being keyed) and a new clutch... so definitely good timing.

    201 Skoda Karoq Style 1.5 TSI 150bhp DSG 7-Speed. The extras include:

    - 19" CRATER Wheels
    - Leather Heated Seats
    - Electric Boot / Tailgate
    - Skoda Virtual Cockpit
