Did anybody see pulling power last night on ITV 11:30pm? There was a piece about skoda heritage on it,showing the new lab in Milton Keynes and some of the old cars they have on show there.Have to say some of the older models before the ruskies got their hands on them are amazing!! Apprentlay they have a new lab where they train all their staff and do motor development.Very impressive.

kit:)

Is it repeated? sounds interesting

i have no idea:( there might be a web site....its the show with mike brewer and mike rutherford.

I saw it, I'm in Brimingham at the moment at Kiddermister, switched on the TV and watched it. They also gave a show on the Evolution.

Those classic Skodas looked really nice, and that showroom is huge...very interesting..I was expecting them to carry on into the new modern Skodas but they din't...

Oh, and since my being here, I saw a silver Octy vRS and also I pass by a house (every morning to go to the Midas factory) that has two Fabias, one estate and one 1.4 hatch...saw a couple of Type-Rs too...haven't seen a Fabnia vRS though.. :(

How are you finding the Birmingham/Brummie accent?

Chris

Sounds like plain English to me Although some of the people who walk in here talk so fast it's hard to catch up...

'Nao warries mate, I'll gitchoo a coopa tee'...

Are you sure that wasn't an auzzie?

LOL nothing wrong with the brummie accent if you are from Birmingham ;-)

..whatever man...I'm from Cyprus so I can't tell..and everyone here thinks I'm American for some funny reason..must be the accent...

I'm staying in a pub called the Mug House, and they got rooms upstairs..nice ones too, I'm on the top floor..king size bed, and bathroom that's bigger than the room!

Don't any of you live near by? Pop over for a cuppa?

I was expecting them to go onto modern Skodas also, which, as you say, they didn't :thumbdwn:

Made it look like Skodas were only a classic vehicle of old

Sorry I can't join you for a cuppa. Perhaps you can check out whether it's your US or Aussie accent that impresses the locals the most Handy tip, a hat with corks strung from it would be a dead giveaway, but you will need to hide the Cyprus aeroplane tags on your luggage when you check in
