Nice one! I had a vRS before the Leon.
They are a wolf in sheeps clothing especially when remapped.

I had a similar spec to what you are planning.
Jabbasport remap
PD160 Intake
Jabbasport RARB
Eibach springs & dampers
TT 312mm front brakes
17" TT Comps
TT front seats & rear seat re-trimmed to match

I remember yours - shame you had a little accident in it :(

Tempted by vRS Alloys, LM Alloys or TT Comps...

They are the best!

Personally think they are one of the many that has been done to death now.

When Ad had them on his Ibiza, you didnt see many around.
Now every man and his dog have got them.
Same goes with Fabia VRS'.

I was hoping you were going to go down the route of LM's again. Would have looked sick once it was dropped with them on.

I must agree that when Adam got his, it looked really good! And as far as I know, I think I was the next person to copy? Or was it Altech? But now everyone seems to put them on! When I see a Mk4 at a show with them on, that's when I'll change them. :lol:

I am biased plus Adam sourced the wheels on my car, I love mine still.:)

Good job you didnt make it to Springfest then.

There was one on the stand with VRS alloys on.

lol :)

The vRS rims are done to death but they do suit the Fabia vRS and Ibiza really well!

I will most probably run these for a while then buy some LM's... :D

Been reading a few threads on Briskoda and apparently the BLT engine in mine has consistently seen rolling road figures of 150bhp :D

ooh... sneaking off for a look :D

The BLT has a known stutter problem due to emissions regulations and the EGR valve, you notice anything?

yep i have that issue. they tried the 'repair' kit and all this done was bring the engine light on so they had to put it back and they still do not have a solution. turning the EGR down is ment to help aswell but i dont have vagcom so cant try it

Must admit i've only noticed it once, its like you've put the car in 5th gear instead of 3rd from 2nd!

LM's in the for sale section were 18'' and are sold...
