Hofmiester 10 Posted October 4, 2013 Why not postpone it to the New Year ? Because a lot of our cars will be off the road then. My Tax runs out end of October and she wont be back on the road again until April Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jim 2 Posted October 4, 2013 But we're still on right? More cake to go round at these numbers! We are unless anyone drops out. Literally it's going to have to be all 15 people coming, at £30 each otherwise it's game over. If anyone is thinking of dropping out now please do so now so that I don't start taking payments for people only to have to refund everyone who has paid :| Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Jim 2 Posted October 4, 2013 Looking forward to winter in mine this year :) Need to get some winter tyres ordered though.. never going to go without them ever again after my first experience with them last winter :) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
clumpy1 11 Posted October 4, 2013 Looking forward to winter in mine this year :) Need to get some winter tyres ordered though.. never going to go without them ever again after my first experience with them last winter :) Didn't you sell them Jim? Would they not have fitted the corrado? I take it an Octavia is 5x112 then? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jim 2 Posted October 4, 2013 Didn't you sell them Jim? Would they not have fitted the corrado? I take it an Octavia is 5x112 then? Yeah - 5x112 mate, and the tyres would just have been too big anyway - 205/55/16 - I'm going to get a set of of 195/50/15's and stick em on a spare set of Speedlines I have. Should be able to get good tyres for about £200 - getting VR's native size of 205/50/15 would be a fair bit more expensive. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
