New Octavia at home... MY17 Combi 1.8tsi Style.

 

 

Pretty awesome photographic work - What lens/camera combo did you use? What software you used for editing/color grading?

 

I particularly like the bouquet and blurs, but I am going on a limb here and guessing that some of those blurs are a little more than just depth of focus and had some Photoshop hand?

 

Either way - some of the best photos on this thread. Setting the bar high

Thank you very much!! I used a CANON 5D mark III FF DSLR with a 70-200 F2.8 IS II attached to it. I didn't use photoshop, only lightroom to adjust exposure, WB, and contrast. The bokeh is amazing on this lens.

Regards

Stunning. What wax etc you got on that baby? Is that grey?

Fiesta ST I think - great hot hatch

Yeah, fiesta st, it's a right laugh! Not as quick as I thought tho. It'll hopefully perk up a bit when the engine loosens.

Alright, slightly better pics now, but still not ideal - these are made with a phone and not with a camera. I will eventually do some good ones

Some nice slammed ones

Loving the ceramic coating. Some carpro reload and hydro2 to finish it.

My vRS 4x4 and wife's 120dA xdrive. Wasn't expecting too much after the BMW but Octavia is pretty damn good.

Taken in Weymouth today when I stopped for a quick lunch

I do miss those days when I was out on the road and got the chance to drive in the West Country, Derbyshire and Lincolnshire.

Meteor grey vrs estate picked up today

hope you leave it in gear!

Sometimes she wants to be a Scout.

hope you leave it in gear!

Oh yes I do. It's an effort walking up the drive believe me. Hand break holds it but in gear every time. As it's that steep I have to reverse it down the way I go up and spin at the top of the cul-de-sac otherwise if catches :(!

Picked up Just over a month ago  :clap:

Does the hill hold function work on your drive?

Great colour choice too.

Yeah it holds. If I get too close to the garage door when I Park it up (I drive up at around 5mph) and I need to drop it back it holds without a problem for the few seconds that this feature works for. The handbrake holds the car perfectly however given how steep it is I always leave it in gear on the driveway for safety/ease of mind. Thanks, I'm loving the colour. I don't drive for attention but the car is getting plenty of looks in the 24hours ive owned it and comments positive generally speaking. I would quite go as so far as saying it's a full blown Marmite love it or hate it colour but it's unusual haha
