Hello all. I am a newbie to Skoda and a newbie to this forum. I picked up my 2006 Skoda Octavia 2.0tfsi vrs in race blue yesterday. I am extremely happy with it. I scoured this forum before purchasing and found some amazing info and detail which made my decision an easy one.

Thanks for reading

Very unlikely if you have a CR..... head down, scurry away quickly, pick up coat......

For some reason the mpg display would only show the readings when they were good. Whenever I leaned on the throttle the display would go off. I have no idea why it's doing that (innocent face). Had to hide the truer mpg figures from the mrs. I will get some pictures up when I figure out how to upload on the forum.

Thanks.

Welcome to the site, any probs you have don't hesitate to ask

Yay more Scottish people. Increase my chances of being spotted lol. I'm big black and dirty (the car that is) :-)

Here is a pic from when got the car and one from today at work when I was replacing the headlight bulbs. Hope this works.
