Time to say goodbye to the Octy

[JungleJames]

So exactly 3yrs and 1 month since I picked up the Octy, I officially started the short countdown to the goodbye. Short as in 2 days

 

Ive been forced into purchasing something which costs less to insure though. But not to worry, I'm sure I will survive.

No Matt, you cannot spoil my fun.

 

Lets wait and see who works it out first

[SkodaVRS1963]

You and Matt are, um, funboys?

[JungleJames]

No but your a reason for selling the Skoda and leaving Briskoda.

[VRS230]

You sold a car and are going to leave a forum because of a poster?

[pist0nbr0ke]

Or he's also going to buy a Focus ST...

[shanemeh]

The Skoda Octavia is cheap to insure? How old are you?

Is that a question about the Octy?

 

33 is the answer to the second.

 

For those that hadnt worked it out, I mentioned the insurance for a reason. Reason being you wouldnt expect the insurance to be less.

I can do you one better than something like that.

Focus has gone downhill

That can't be right, the answer is always 42

 

BMW 3 Series of some type?

But unexpectedly so...

 

When I went from a six year old 1.9pd Octavia to a then brand new 1.4tsi (at least 3 seconds faster to 100kph and obviously with higher valuation) my insurance premium was noticeably less and that was unexpected.

[JungleJames]

Nice one. That gave me a good laugh. I may nickname it the Panda now!

[TheWanderer]
