Kjas are awesomely uncomfortable but fun.
Incredibly practical but useless at the same time

If practicality was important to the members of this forum it would be called the "Skoda Superb TDI Estate Club UK"
There's three ways of doing things:
The right way,
The wrong way
And my way, which is like the wrong way but faster.

Yes, and we'd be starting threads about Mike asking for sanity, because he'd be running his low rolling resistance tyres at 37 psi instead of 31psi or 33psi like the rest of us...Edweird wrote:If practicality was important to the members of this forum it would be called the "Skoda Superb TDI Estate Club UK"

£163 lighter but that includes the following:-
MOT, fit & balance 4 tyres, supply and fit a battery, fit the drivers door handle, sort out electrical earth gremlins.
Given that it's £40 for an MOT, £40 for the tyres and I couldn't find a battery for less than £58 I'm calling it a bargain!
