Afternoon from Shropshire/Wales border

Featured Replies

Good afternoon! 

 

My names Tom, 26 years old and just acquired an MY05 Skoda Octavia Elegance 1.9 tdi 105. 

 

Just started a new job at Jaguar Land Rover EMC in Wolverhampton and needed a better run around / cruiser than the Toyota yaris 1.0 I had for pootling back and to from town in. Also to keep the miles off my other toy. 

 

Bought from a friend who works in a large IT firm and they were clearing out their fleet. Was just under 157K miles when I bought her. 

 

Before purchase had quite a bit of money chucked at it! one bill of £800 for the dreaded DMF and clutch! Replaced with LUK items. I've given her a full filter service, new rear pads and OSR calliper, some London Colour 4300K HID's as you all seemed to rave about them! Very pleased with it so far :) 

 

Already given her a damm good claying and DA'ing, very forgiving paintwork!
