Well, its about time I put some pictures of my Octy MK2 on here.

After a spring clean this morning which included a wash, complete going over with tar spot remover, a good vacuum and then a dose of Zymol here she is.

I know the windows still need cleaning, but you get the idea.

I bought the car in September 2006 with 14K on the clock, now many miles later has not missed a beat.

Colour is Sahara Beige Metallic.

My car recently completed a run down to the Costa del sol.

Mannys Octy Run to Costa Del Sol 2009

Has the full story and new updated pictures and a couple of videos.

My Octy has now covered in excess of 80K miles since I purchased it, all without major incident. The only 3 issues I have had are a failed fuel temp sensor and a shock absorber that went, and a CV boot that split and thats it. Still original clutch, DMF, brake pads and disks, and turbo.

New wheels, Maxidot and MFD3.

The A/C worked really well, you only apreciate how well when you stepped out of the car and got roasted by the heat. The car inside was lovely and cool.
