I went to my local dealer today to check out the boot space in the Octavia estate and ended up buying one.  It will replace my year old Fabia estate that's not quite big enough for my current needs but has been a great little car.

 

I've gone for an SE L 1.6 TDI Manual estate in Quartz Grey Metallic. Luckily for me there's one already built and at the port so I should have it by the end of the month. happy days!

Nice. I have the same car in the lighter silver in a 62 plate.

Brilliant car and have served me well for triathlons, transporting loads of kit and moving house etc.

I play drums in a band and my kit fits in the Fabia no problem. However, I've just invested in some stage lighting and things are a bit of a squeeze!

such a shame about Keith Emerson's death :(  

I play in a Beatles tribute these days.

I've been listening to a lot of The Nice and ELP this weekend. Keith Emerson was a huge talent.

yes a brilliant keyboard player - I was fortunate to meet him twice - I have 6 of his/nice/elp CD's in my MK2 at the moment, won't be using them in my MK3 when it arrives but have downloaded his stuff on SD card ready

 

so tragic that he took his own life with a shotgun - we'll probably never know what led him to this awful end

It's a good car you won't be disappointed.
