What cars got you to Skoda?

Featured Replies

Depending on age ranges etc I wa wondering what cars people have had before they bought their Skoda's, I myself have had a few since I was able to drive, just for example I list below.

Talbot Solara

VW Polo

Suzuki Jeep {name fails me must be me age}

Rover SD1

Vauxhall Astra Mk 3 {iirc they are the rounded ones before the one that has just been replaced}

Vauxhall Corsa SXi

MG ZS {sadly wrote off on motorway}

my First Octy vRS

Vauxhall Astra Cab

My new Octy vRS

All these cars in the space of about 13years but I have changed more frequently since the SXi generally every year.

I was just curious to what car paths peoples lives have taken & if they have preferance to any particular type/model

Started on the mintest Nova SR the world has ever seen - 11,701 miles when I bought it 8 years old... put 10k on it, tuned it up to about 90 or 100bhp then flipped it on its roof :mad:

Then logically bought a faster car - 309GTI - played about with that, lowered 100mm :eek: and it cornered like it was on rails - did sub 17 sec quarter mile too, against my mate's supposedly faster R19 16v which couldn't get under 17.5 :rofl: unfortunately the guy I sold it to T-boned a camper van with it and killed it :rolleyes:

Bought my Nissan 200SX at 20, smart move buying a group 18 car at that age, insurance bent me over for it... still, I miss the drifting and I'll never forget racing and narrowly beating a Skyline at the Pod in it, he was not happy!!! Sold that to buy the Furby vRS.

Also had a Fiesta mk2 1.4S which I bought for

1988 VW Polo 1043cc (not as slow as it sounds)

Skoda Fabia 1.4 16v 100bhp Elegance
