Date of registration: June 2013 Colour: Race Blue Options fitted: Black wheels, black roof, rear parking sensors, mud flaps Owned for nearly two weeks, absolutely superb. Got a set of vRS mats from Ambassador - highly recommended. That is now two Mk II vRS on the Isle of Wight with Briskoda stickers - any more ?.

Hello everyone, Although I am not a current Skoda owner, the majority of the cars I have owned over the past 25 years have been Skodas and I still feel part of the marque. First one I owned was a new Estelle 120L Five followed by a Rapid Coupe which was good fun. Next up were two Favorit 136LS's, both of which I thoroughly enjoyed, and then got a Felicia Estate. My final Skoda was a 1.6 Felicia GLXi which was my best to date. All of them were purchased and serviced by FH Winter at Havenstreet on the Isle of Wight who are a great Skoda dealer. Unfortunately my association with Skoda then had to come to an end as I had to revert to three-door cars as I needed a wide opening for the passenger; due to athritis in the leg they hav to keep their right leg straight to get in and out. Have spent the last 6 years with Ford (lucky to have a good local dealer)but noticed that the Fabia has height-adjusted passenger seat so I will check Winters out again - an Octavia might be another possibility. Look forward to participating in the forums - I have always followed Skoda's rallying fortunes and still have some Skoda trophy videos. All the best, Jim
