Hi from Glasgow, Scotland - New Octavia vRS owner

[vRSRobT]

Hi, I'm Robert from Glasgow, Scotland.  I am currently searching for a Skoda Octavia (mk2) VRS tdi to replace my current car due to running costs and now just age.....

 

My current car is a 1999 VW Passat 2.8 V6 4Motion:

 

​

 

My car history has been quite a mixture:

 

​

​

​

 

And others....

 

Used to be involved in the VW scene within Scotland a long time ago so might know a few faces but not as much now.  I run a detailing business (which seems to be a common business these days) but ill not blab on about that too much, but as been running my business from over 8 years I can give great advise if anyone needs it.  Outside of detailing I am a Snowboard Instructor up at Snow Factor in Glasgow, so if anyone rides there, make sure you look out for me (not that you know what I look like lol).

 

Anyway enough about me, hopefully I can contribute and enjoy the forum

 

Rob (aka Prism)

I have found and paid for a 2008 Octavia vRS CR170 in Corrida Red from a Skoda Dealership, with exceptional dealer SH.

I should be collecting within a week after a few things are fixed out with it

Hi, welcome.

Fellow newbie myself, from Scotland.

Funnily enough when I seen your username, the first thing I thought of was Prism Detailing. Is that you?

That was a long time ago since i posted any work on there, ironically since i came off it i have done some of the most amazing cars within Scotland or the UK...oh well.

[Grawschbags]

Ha, typical!

 

I've not been around DW for a good while either.  However I did start looking at some of the latest and greatest products out now for keeping the new car in shape.

 

Have to prep the outgoing one for sale first though...

Finally moved over to the darkside Rob!!!!!

I look forward to seeing your cleaning pics, still can't believe the difference you made with my old MK3

Here's my current taxi, just put the new 17" Skoda Dolomites on yesterday with uniroyal rainsport 3's
