Alright my Bootys?

New here, been viewing for a few weeks and thought it was time I posted.

Got an 06 Octavia vRS in Race Metallic Blue, no mods (oppressive wife), had it since December, clocked up about 5000 miles on it, on top of the dealers 2500, and after a few teething problems it seems to be running sweetly now.

I have posted a question in the Styling and Car Care section, as i have some 'swirling' issues i want to take care of, and dont know what to buy or how to use it.

About me: Live in Norfolk, 29 years old, married, no kids. Dont really know anything about mechanics and am generally paranoid about my Pride and Joy, the combination of which means every rattle, creak and clunk makes me hyperventilate.

Good tidings to you all.

I'm not sure if anyone else can relate to the following, but I also dont expect, from a consumer point of view, to have the problems with an

Welcome.

Got a little trip to Norfolk myself this weekend.

Hello & welcome

Good car, been thinking about one for a while now.

My Fabia vRS had a creak under the handbrake, then a rattle and now a banging, slightly worrying.
