Seems to have worn the miles well

Now you need to start modding:  Where to start on a 4x4 1.8T Octavia  

That rover coloured interrior is fugly though, so you're going to have to start soon

Thats a lot of car for the money, it looks well cared for. I like it, the towing ball on the back is a great deterrant for tail-gaters lol.
A good result

Truth be told it was in a sorry state when I went to see it. Basically straight but very grubby, flat paint with some very bad respray along sills. Fortunately they had do.e this job badly and thinners brought her back to her old self, the sprayed sills was to cover areas where people getti.g in and out rubbed away paint, I resprayed the sills and good as new. G3 on the rest of the car followed by diamond hard wax then ice detailer. Very happy with it, and mechanically superb.

Got my old heated black leather seats lying around if you're interested Carl!

Looks superfly. I would have gone for a 4x4 if they'd done them in L&K spec...

I agree, black leather seats would suit it best.  When you do this, if you dont know what to do with the beige armrest and you desperately need to get rid of it, let me know

[Lofty79]

plenty to be getting on with anyway, the leathers would be great, ill see how im fixed.
