Hi everyone.

 

I purchased a 2016 Rapid 1.2Tsi sport yesterday as needed a more practical car, I’ve managed the last 18 months with just a two seater convertible that has no boot!  Time to grow up a bit...

 

I’ve had a couple of VAG group cars previously (Pasatt and a Sharan) both were diesels with the bullet proof 1.9pd engines.  Well not quite bullet proof, one of them didn’t appreciate being driven through a flood too quickly and getting hyrdolocked (not by me I hasten to add).

 

First impression of the Skoda is good - I really can’t get over how much space there is (I believe it’s underpinnings are Fabia / Polo / Ibiza ?) or how much car I appear  to have got for not a lot of money.

 

It’s not due an oil change for another 4500 Miles, but I will be doing an oil change in the next week.  Regular oil changes are deeply ingrained in my car maintanence ethos - I tend to keep my cars a long time and self-service them, so it costs very little to make sure they have clean oil.

 

Today I will fitting a dashcam though, never go anywhere without one these days...
