ScottHmk4 Fabia vRS - Now with SeatSurgeon leather

glad you've got it all sorted out mate. Not been plain sailing for myself either, had a few probs and now the drivers side has scratches down the door and rear panel after a road road incedent. Scunnered tbh!

my cars isnt 100% yet, but hopefully once the stuff i said has been fitted it should be ok, new alloy comes next week too
 
found out today it wasnt a bent hub but we replaced it anyways, i didnt use genuine bearing but cheap imitations from like tms dingbro eurocar parts etc etc, and it was done about 2 weeks ago and they had came loose from the hub (which in turn destroyed it and could have sent my alloy flying) very dangerous.rectified one side to find the other side was the same, paid almost £400 for a new instument cluster and i still have issues, something wrong with the steering also. im raging! putting out soo much money on this car and its not getting me anywhere.
 
i wouldnt sell it broken, but i dont know , i might sell it once its "fixed" but in my mind it wont ever be the same, i was thinking about a mk4 cupra tdi

ideally dont want rid of it but we shall see. im fearing that 2nd had steering rack i put on has became :censored: already. were unsure but the sterring wasnt good at all today and we fear the seals may have gone, we will fire on a genuine bearing and go from there. got 312mm setup coming but thats not going on till we get it running correctly, for some reason the trip computer is well out, reading 4.5mpg average :/ hopefully just because the abs sensor isnt registering due to bearing
 
Compared to the black exterior it looks really good!
Sadly the didn't officialy offered the Fabia VRS in Holland :(
