Another day, another forum!

I'm off on my travels tomorrow to look at a lovely Octavia that has caught my attention.

 

I'm hoping that it's as good as the seller says it is!

 

Thought I'd make a pre-emptive strike and get signed up to what looks like an awesome forum.

 

So yeah, hi, I'm new here!

Good luck hope it's up to your expectations just remember to view with your eyes and head not your heart

Haha, suppose there is a first time for everything!

Hi there, hope you find the right one!  Don't rush at the first one though, have a good look around first.  Good luck!

Hi,

 

Hope you can give us the details on your possible acquisition..

 

Your sure to find plenty of opinions on this forum!!

[Inahole]

Well it's an 09 pre-facelift CR170 VRS.

 

For the price and it's age it's pretty decent, totally fit for purpose.

Looks nice.  Do we take it you have bought it?

Haha yeah, I've made the purchase!

 

I'm impressed so far, handles well, decent enough go and the best bit is the 45mpg avg on the way home!

 

It's had the gearbox oil done and a recent cambelt so I'm happy.

 

Previous owner has obviously been a large person, the bolster has taken a beating and the door card is wrinkled where his/her massive elbow has been stationed!

 

If I feel the need I'll find a seat and door card, it's the only thing that lets the interior down.

[Robjon]

Congratulations mate.

 

Have a rummage through the "Parts for Sale" section, or post in "Items Wanted" for your seat and door card.

 

Oh - and welcome to Briskoda

[Andyjm2uk]

Looks good my friend...

 

Hope you find the parts you need to make it perfect.

 

Happy motoring...

So 6 months gone and 5k under the Octavias belt I think it's remap time!

 

Thinking of using P-Torque in Wolverhampton, they did an ace job on my old 123d like.
