Hey everyone, I'm Rob and I have been thinking of an Octavia vRS for some time, maybe since 2012 when I was thinking of replacing my daily Volvo S60 D5.

 

As it was, the dealer never got back to me and I decided I was going to keep the Volvo forever/til it died and get the car I really wanted. So, in 2015 I gave the trusty Volvo to my wife to use to protect her and our then 5 month old daughter and px'd her focus, along with an MX-5 for a Toyota GT86, which is my pride and joy (although the volvo will always be my true love...).

 

Fast forward 2.5 years and (after just moving house - perfect timing), my beloved S60 has something terminal, and we can't find out what. So we now have a Race blue vRS hatch with a couple of options on order for delivery ASAP. which lead me to reading the threads on here, and joining up, though i've been aware of the forum for a while.

Hello Rob and family welcome along to the Skoda forum enjoy your new Skoda when it arrives .

PS don't forget the pics 

Haha, don't worry, i'm always taking pics of the car, usually after I've (badly) detailed it. I sure more than a few will end up on here!
