Now I've sussed out how to post pictures take a look. After 24 hrs still chuffed to nuts with it . I only have one niggling problem.........When we go out in the car SWMBO now wants to drive it all the time.Therefore I now have a chuffeur 24hrs a day . Bet when it comes to cleaning it she wont be so keen!!!

Looks good - like the colour.

its Graphite grey ,thought about black magic ,but advised gets dirty vry quickly and especially with th e amount of miles i do a week. No mods on it yet just a boot liner!!!

Looks good - yeah black magic is a real pain to keep clean

Congratulations on your new purchase. Hope you get to drive it soon...:(

If I hide the keys I might get a chance. Think she loves it more than i do. She has even said she prefers driving it to her car ( toyota Cynos ) We will see if she is as eager to help clean it as she is to drive it. Still at that stage of parking it well away from other cars in supermarkets and car parks .Love the sound of the horn too .....really gutsy not a little fart like my previous car .

I am missing looking out of the window and looking at my Octy she has took it to work

Not on my Shift :eek:

- fair enough m8

I'm lucky in that:

1) SWMBO hasnt got her license (yet) although she should get it (!!)

2) SWMBO is too expensive to insure on the Furby so not a problem in that sense either

Shes gone to work in it again tonight!!!!! She has driven it more than me since I got it.

For the first time ever I am looking forward to Monday morning so I get the car. Got a nice 2hr drive to Plymouth so should get nicely aquqinted with everything by then

Hmmm. Probably not You see, you menfolk sit around and talk about the speed of the engine etc, whilst we womenfolk think about the speed of our feet in getting to the car first.

I can recommend Saucony as good running shoes if you have to get to Plymouth on foot

Oh my God. Mine stays clean for about an hour, then is filthy again. And don't get me started on the fekking beige seats...

Nice car dude - great colour too. Very label on the inside!

And don't get me started on the fekking beige seats...

Still, at least they stay cleaner for 59 minutes longer than the vRS seats

Chris

gald I didn't go Beige!black shows enough dust and dirt. As for women being fast on their feet Mo , I agree , but you lot are cunning too. Got outsmarted ( as much as I hate to admit it) by SWMBO at the weekend about being 1st to the car drives it!!!

Definately got car tomorrow ........I have got BOTH sets of Keys......(see us blokes can be cunning too!!!)

Nice looking car, I just had to make that all important "colour" decision and ended opting for Stone Grey in the Octavia Estate 2.0TDI DSG L&K I just ordered! Hope it's the right colour!
