|  Hi from Fife, Scotland... Joined up today as I have become a Skoda owner in the past year and it's like I've found religion or something. I keep telling people how much I like my vRS! The car: 2003(53) Octavia vRS 1.8T petrol, estate, 180bhp but feels like 220 :-) Me: car-head whose young family & lack of a garage prevents me indulging some of my wilder fantasies (such as an early seventies 911 or a Caterham...) Anyway, can a moderator change my login? My autocomplete added the @gm bit which I don't want - would be nice not to have it as it's a bit odd. Cheers, John |

| Re: Hi from Fife, Scotland... Cheers, folks. I have to say, I'm enjoying my vRS very muchly, but have so far resisted the urge to tweak. Tempted to see if I can add a bit of grunt without losing fuel-economy... maybe 200bhp (from 180)? |

| Re: Hi from Fife, Scotland... Hi mate, From another Fifer  Have a chat with a few of the fellow Scottish vRS owners about power upgrades and fuel consumption, but I think you will be plesantly surprised. And since your in fife it'd be rude not to give Jim @ Star performance a buzz when you do
