G'day, from wintery Cottesloe, in the antipodes. Think an early autumn day in the south of England. My wife and I are both Octavia owners, a 1Z5 wagon and a 1Z3 sedan. Both 2008, both from new. Sedan for the city, wagon for the country. We did a 3,000k round trip about a fortnight ago. The TDI did not miss a beat. I have been servicing the two cars since they came out of warrenty. I have been an avid reader of your forums over the years. Time to ask some unanswered question (or rather answers Ihave not been able to locate!).

 

Thanks for having me...

Hi Kevin, 

 

It's a nice part of the world, Cottesloe... 

 

We are on the Mornington Peninsula in Victoria, but have family in Perth, just up the coast from you

 

When I read your description of the weather, I had to check that there's no Cottesloe in Tasmania!  

 

I am also new to the forum, having just bought a Kodiaq last month. Love the car so far.

Edit: I misread early autumn as early spring, so that makes more sense to me now.
