End of an MG-R Era - Mk1 Octavia vRS Owner

[Shafz]

Hi Guys, hope all is well
Not been on here much, been quite busy with other stuff
Well its an end of an Era for me, decided to move away from MG-R and go for something different.
Managed to pick up a Mk1 Octavia vRS for not much more then i sold the rover 25 for too. Very Solid car, no creaks inside, pulls nicely and overall feels superb

I do have a few plans afoot, but nothing dramatic, just going to concentrate on the performance side of things.
For those who are not familiar with this car, it is a 1.8 20v turbo, 180bhp stock, but this one has been tweeked a bit by previous owner, its got a Blueflame Exhaust system, pipercross induction kit, forge re-circ valve, remap and a few other things (im guessing its easily running over 200)

have a few plans - tints, coillies, FMIC, sports cat and then custom remap

Anyway il let the pictures do the talking
























and a few crappy snaps i took

very nice, always considered getting one but they do hold there value well tho, bit pricey on the ins for me tho being only 23, keep up the good work, should scare a few performance cars out there with that bhp
