Hello all

I'm pleased to say that I'm picking up my Octavia VRS on Thursday and can't wait after test driving it last week. I found this site whilst deciding on buying it and all the comments here made it an easy decision. It's on 1.8 turbo 2004 model in black with loads of extras in great condition.

Anything I should know about when I pick it up? Any 'owners tricks' that may help me?

Any comments gratefully received!

Can't wait to get it...

Martin

welcome along

welcome matey! make sure it doesnt creak over speed bumps, although this is usually anti roll bar bushes and not expensive. being over 4 years old, it should've had the cambelt done and a new water pump iirc. secondly, have fun
