Hello everyone,

Greetings from Northern Ireland, where it seems to have been raining 24 hours a day for the last two weeks :( . Oh well - at least the traction control in my new Octavia Ambiente hatchback works.

Hello McTeagle

Sorry about the weather :boat: although with your sooper dooper new car :drive: you'll probably be thinking that things could be worse

Welcome to Briskoda

Hi and welcome. The weather sounds much the same as it was when I was based at RAF Ballykelly (near Limavady) back in the late 60s. :(

welcome

Welcome...

Yep, I can agree on the weather. I came back from a friends wedding in Derry last week...very wet and miserable...(the weather not the wedding !) my blood alcohol level has just about reached the safe level to drive again..

Have you took the Octy over the Glenshane yet?

Hi from the "other end" of Ireland, Cork here, welcome to the gang

My wife's parents are originally from Derry so I think a trip there is on the cards sometime soon before the frosty weather. That would be a good test of the FSI engine!

Hello. The one thing I hate about rain is, no matter how torrential the downpour, it doesn't actually wash the car.
