Hello all,

 

I'm the owner of a 2022 Skoda Octavia IV. I came across the site lots of times while researching and purchasing my car and now after 6 months or so of ownership I thought it was finally time to join the community! 😀

 

My family has always owned VW group cars and I'm no exception having owned VWs (Golf, Lupo, Bora and Passat) before purchasing my Octavia. The Octavia is my first new car, having previously only bought used. However, my Octavia is not the first new Octavia in our family.

 

Back in 2002 my family were the proud owners of a 1.8T 4X4 Skoda Octavia estate (picture attached). It was the ultimate wolf in sheeps clothing of it's day and it was memories of the fun times we had in this car which got me thinking about giving Skoda another try.

 

So back in the middle of 2021 I went down to West End Skoda in Edinburgh and put my name down for a brand new Octavia IV Estate. (...Shout out to George who also sold us the 1.8T back in 2002!) And after a very long wait, I finally took ownership of the car in Sept 2022.

Since then I've really enjoyed getting back into Skoda's and have joined the Skoda Owners Club GB. I have also been able to put the new car to good use towing my classic Citroen 2CV to for restoration work.

I look forward to meeting you all and helping contribute to the forum!

Cheers,
Callum
