Not a bye from me, but a bye from my Skoda

[Rhys94]

Hi all, as the title states. It's not a bye from me, but a bye from my Skoda.

 

Sadly my good old Fabia Classic 1.4 MPi was involved in an accident late October. It was written off and I was sad to see it go. Since then I've owned two cars, as a stop gap I was driving around in a 1997 Vauxhall Astra 1.4.

 

It wasn't quick, but it was surprisingly enjoyable and smooth to drive. It done me well and I actually enjoyed driving it for the duration of time I had it.

 

Since then, I've gone out and bought a 2008 MK6 Ford Fiesta ST, which I love. Easily the most fun car I've had the pleasure of owning. Despite now owning a Ford as opposed to a Skoda, I'm going to remain a Briskoda member and any meets I'm welcome to attend I'll see if I can get along to.  

 

The National last year was brilliant, a weekend of cars, camping and good company. Made some good friends last year and I might try and get myself along this year too. This time in the ST (it's not quite track ready so I won't be getting any track time, but I'd be interested in attending and enjoying the event).

Nice to see people sticking around even when they have moved on from Skoda.  Who knows, you might be back to a Skoda again some day!

It's a good club to be a part of, with good people. Why move on?! I've also seen other ST owners out and about the site! You never know, I do like a good Octy VRS! Might get myself one some time in the future.

Shall have to keep my eyes peeled for you and give a wave, there's a monthly meet every first Tuesday of the Month at the West Meon Hut about an hour from Poole I go there every month as the people I've met there I've become great friends with and attended a couple of track days too

Yeah definitely, might be able to pop along. The next one is just over a week away, what time does it start and where could I find you all?!

Awesome stuff, general mockery of the Citigo its just a monthly meet really, catch up with friends and then some food as well, people usually head off around 9 or 10

Sometimes the meet clashes with the piston heads meet, but only once or twice a year generally
