Well after being incredibly impressed with my first ever Skoda (Mk 1 Octy VRS), I took the plunge in February and order a Mk 2 Octy VRS 2.0 CD TDI as a copy car following a promotion. I've been waiting patiently for a date for delivery and it was eventually confirmed for Tuesday 12th May. Its now been delayed as they found a scratch on the back while they were loading onto the transporter but they don't think it'll delay it for too long!

On Sunday, the wife and I went to the local Dealer and they had a fleet of 8 Fabia Bluelines and after some umming and arring we are chopping in the Mk 1 Octy and our 1998 plate 106 on the governmebnt scrappage scheme and getting a new car for the wife as well.

So, I will soon be leaving the Mk 1 Octy gang and joining the Mk 2 Octy clan and the white roof club!

I can't wait to get them now!!!

the excitement of getting one car is good but 2!!!! there is no feeling like it, i just got myself a £400 runabout and i was excited about getting that

it seems theres an awful lot of people getting new cars at the min though, wasnt there some recession going on or something?

Cool, must be super excited. Enjoy the Mk2 vRS.
