i was wondering whether any of you would be interested in a trip to czech next year,

as i went this year with 15 other skodas and found it very good because you can get any skoda parts for hardly anything out there eg. sideskirts workout at

I'll be over there probably 2 or 3 times next year. More if money allows

Could probably time a visit to co-incide with this

May well be interested in this.

how much would it cost to get there?

sounds good to me, although I can only manage a week with SWMBO!

when i went this year it took us over a day to get there but on the way back less than that, petrol = for a vrs octavia you are looking at

blimey hotel is well cheap! What car parts did u buy?

we bought enough to make them look different from the rest of the standard ones that are about mate

i will put more details on here in the next few days,

it would be good to get more people intereted in going so that we can have a big convoy to czech

Never mind the price of the Hotel ....................look at the price of the beer :eek: .............9 pence a bottle .........I said 9 PENCE A BOTTLE !!!

autocamp skoda is not a hotel chaps it is a basic campsite owned by auto club skoda. it is very basic and at Kosmonosy just outside Mlada Boleslav. It does have chalet acomadation that is very basic i.e a garden shed with a bed and a wardrobe . And speaking with experience is frequently raided by thieves.

Be careful

Just to explain myself further, the campsite is well run and has a good restuarant and sells beer and meals normal czech prices to people camping and walkin's, the standard of the site is better than a lot of cz sites but is not up to those experienced in Europe. The thing people need to recognise with this country - great as it is you have to remember is that there are a lot of people with very little money so foriegn plated cars and tourists are good targets for theives.

One instance was my sons chalet was broken into while he and his mate were asleep his valuables in the chalet were stolen - his car keys were taken from his clothes on his bed and his car contents emptied and all sellable valuables were stolen - passport luckily was not taken. Another was similar was where a tent was entered whilst the owners were asleep all money and valuables stolen.

Its note just on this site I have been on others were theives have entered even during daylight hours.

That said if I wanted a campsite near Mlada I would stay here, its as close as you can get to Mlada Boleslav.

I have stayed at the site camping and in the cabin type acomadation many times - and would do again.

Dont be put off just take precautions.

Lads, lads, lads,

I know cars are fun, but wait you're talking about Czech Republic and Prague - leave the cars at home, save the fuel and mileage and spend it on flights, Corinthia Towers Hotel and Absinthe. Indulge yourself and get flashbacks for at least a year - fan bloody tastic :insane:

Absinthe! Good stuff that, made my whole face go numb after sipping it!

MMMM Absinthe. I've got some at home, it's like paint stripper especially when used as a potcheen mixer

hello fellow skodaists

as you know i have started this post proposing a suggestion about a trip to czech in 2005, a few of you have responded showing a possible interest so i though that i would elabrate a little mor and share my trip taken earlier this year with emphasis on a similar schedule for next year!

firstly the facts- my 2 week holiday clocked up a round trip of 2990 miles (north wales to dover, calais to czeh ,traveling around czech and back home)

fuel prices-are cheaper in europe espacially czech(49p a litre)

ferry price- based on 3 adults + 1 child (

trips to Czech

do you need a add on for your drivers Licence and extra car insurance

also could a stop at the Nurberg ring be interesting or is that quite a bit out of the way

wow, I'm interested!!!!!

I was looking for a road trip, maybe even to Russia but Czech 'll be far enough for now.

The only problem is that I drive a 1.2 (yeah, don't have the money yet for a vRS :p) so I can't travel faster than 160km/h

Ofcourse it's only in Germany that I try this but it's lame having to go all the way to the right driving 160km/h, seeing others pass you at 200+

The only problem is that I'm Belgian, so if I was to join you (if you allowed me) I'd have to join you guys when you pass here somewhere (I live near Brussels).

The other problem is that I still have tests (I'm in my last year applied computer science) 'till the 10th of june or something.

Damn I'd like such a trip.
