Octavia Elegance Estate, stickers removed

Featured Replies

Has one of these before, but got rid of it for a DSG octy, hated that, bought a berlingo & really hate that, this came up at a cracking price.

So here she is, 1.9PD, ex highway car, full documented service history

Plans are, full valet, remove stickers, new set of rubber mats, all lights changed to LED's, dog guard.

Into the middle of year I may fit a Columbus & maxi dot.

4/6 weeks it should be on the road.

Braved the snow & freezing conditions and cracked on with removing the stickers, I must admit I really liked it with the stickers & if it wasn't be used as a taxi I woulda kept them on:
