Live in smokeless zone so burning wood to keep warm not really an option here unless your hobby is constructing fences out of random bits of tree.

My fence building skills are shown above so...no.

Just announced on the news it's HOTTEST May Day Bank Holiday weather ever recorded reaching 25.1 degrees before noon (12:00 BST). Conclusion is that global warming caused by SCANDINAVIANS burning lots of wood!!!!!!!!!!

Cheers Hermit nice to see someone who gets my dry sense of humour. Have to watch myself in this hot weather otherwise might catch fire.

Here is my daily driven Octavia.

I recognise a great sense of humour when I read one. Not that there was much sense in what you said...... and actually not a huge quantity of humour either. Still I identified with something there.

Nice look, what wheels are those and how much have you lowered it and finally what springs have you used?

[Vilho]

@shyVRS245 Thanks, wheels are 19" Brock b38 shiny black and car is lowered with H&R 40mm springs.

Thanks still trying to decide between H & R or Eibach, also will probably go all in with front strut brace and hollow front/rear uprated anti-roll bars with poly bushes to tighten up the handling before I give any more power as VRS245 brakes are well up to the task.

They pinched your badges off the tailgate!

 

Oh no sir - I did that the day after I got the car. I like the car as I like my women, with a clean behind

How the hell can you do a wash in 20mins, it takes me that long to get my gear out

Haha it was the motivation that the kids were occupied with the paddling pool .... And not "helping"

[Hermit]

@Pittsy You need to sort your underwear out mate!  

 

Maybe you have some mighty impressive gear!

Hi - as for the trim level its not quite the standard "Sport". Changes from the stock "Sport":

- Before delivery i had them swap the 18" Black with 18" Silver alloys (just personal preference)

- Sport normally comes with silver grille surround not black

- Roof cross rails are after market

- Yes the badge is the "Sport Line" (from superskoda). Tacky maybe :), in my defence the "Sport" came with no badging at all, so I added these.

- I also replaced the 8" Bolero entertainment system with a 10" Dasaita Android 8 unit - plug and play and a very worthy upgrade if anyone is considering it for about $400US.

If it makes you feel any better, I just timed myself 

 

Jet wash, wash (CC Lusso), rinse, clay, wash, rinse, dry: 2 hrs 45 mins:

just a quick late night detail... (Auto Finesse bug and tar citrus spray, Orchard Snow foam, Auto Finesse pH neutral shampoo (two buckets), kleen freeks drying cloth) and the water is still sheeting off the C2V3.

im sad.

New wheels creamvRS?  I like!  They look gunmetal grey in colour, which I think goes a little better with the dark blue.

Details - size, offset, make?

Cheers, Jonhonz.
