It was either that or a new electric leaf 

 

Very rare I’m able to wash the car during a weekday evening! 

 

Clean for a few days

My 2014 Octavia VRS......

Quick wash today

White 1- 0 Blue

 

Race Blue was all the rage back in the (MkII) day, but white suits this car so much better IMHO. 

 

But, white is now so common that I’ll definitely need to change next time. 

 

Silver looks great with black highlights - I think brilliant silver metallic might be the new white! ....

Nice plate, very subtle, Weapon of Mass Destruction!

Finally a nice day to get a decent clean! Wash, tar remover, wash, clay, wash, polish a couple of marks, wax. I don't think it's been this clean since it left the factory! All AG stuff apart from bilt hamber clay bar.

 

It's not a vrs, but I'm very happy with her, I wouldn't mind a vrs front bumper though!

Plenty of people on here with non vrs variants by choice and very happy with them  :^]

Ready for the summer.

Few pictures after a nice good clean & wax 

 

 

@Leevan71 - bit of a micro climate up there in Derbyshire?

Its been pretty warm in most places these last few days.

 

If I noticed your car with that number plate I'd think it was a bit of a sleeper 

 

Excellent pic - I like the perspective.

I'm new on this forum so I have to show my car as vel.  

This is mine.  A 2016 2.0tdi 4x4 with eibach 45-45 mm lowering springs and some 19" Ocean Cruise rims in gun metal painting.  

 

The picture is taken in a famous Norwegian tunnel last summer.

 Very nice car & great pic! 

Here is my first attempt to upload a photo of my new car, after I had spent the best part of Saturday cleaning and polishing it. I had a Diamond Brite kit from another car purchase doing nothing so decided while it was nice to put it to good use.

all that work and you give us one measly teaser from the back? 

Went semi naked today. The Š was doing my head in every time I washed the car. My wash mit kept getting caught on it and leaving a big clump of material stuck to it. So, wash, dry, hairdryer, credit card, WD40 to remove traces of glue. Quick polish to remove any ghosting of the letters.

To be fair, it's the best photo I've ever seen taken by a recently deceased person!
