Hi folks,

ive just bought my first Skoda.

Ive been after the right one for a while and have finally found it.

Ive bought a 07 Octavia VRS!!

My misses is expecting our first child so she said i needed to buy a "family car!"

Well, she cant argue can she? Its got 5 doors, a big enough boot for the pushchair and ISOFIX anchors for the child seat!

I just havent told her that the thing flies and it drinks fuel!

Any advice from other VRS owners???

Hi and welcome aboard.

Hi

Congrats on both

Take it easy on those wet roads. (if u want to know anything else it's all in the site somewhere)

Hello Strawz and welcome along

Oh, and what myself nor the garage were aware is that its been remapped and is now 250bhp!!!

Welcome!

Stage 1 remap alone on a TFSI won't give 250bhp, more like 230bhp - 235bhp. Still a nice surprise though but remember to tell your insurance. Also make sure the service schedule has been properly followed; even more important on a remapped car. You don't say how many miles it's done?

my tfsi made 196.8 before the remap and 243.7 after with no mods and its got over 70 k on the clock

Sounds like exactly the same reason I have just got myself a 04 vrs.

Absolutely love it.. And ticks all the family boxes, having just returned from a weeks hols in it!
