Recently bought Octavia Scout 2.0TDi

Featured Replies

Hello to all!

Just thought I would quickly introduce myself!

My names Jake, im 19 and I live in West Wales, and live down a bumpy little lane so the scout was ideal! Had it just over a month now, although it has been back to the garage a couple of times under their warranty! So far I have had the mirror glass fall out on the drivers side, the alternator belt shredded and the turbo pipe went! But they are sorting it out so cannot complain. Hopefully after I get it back tomorrow I wont have any other problems!

It is an awesome car though. I quite easily get 55 mpg out of it, it goes up and down my drive with ease! Its off roading ability is A LOT better than my old frontera! ( except ground clearance ). It also handles extremely well and always seem to pull itself around corners!

Things I plan to do / change on it:

= Upgrade the stereo to factory fitted Sat Nav

= Replace or cover the surround around the stereo as there is a really annoying scratch just at the top of it! ( looks like a womans nail has been dug into it )

= Maybe some new alloys at some point as they are starting to flake in places

= Possibly a remap as they say it goes up to 170bhp! Which sounds fun!

Cant wait for some snow to come down to go and play!

Thanks in advance for any help I get on the site! And I've uploaded a pic of my car for you all to see!

Jake
