Hey guys and gals,

Been a member for a few weeks now, thought its about time I say Hi! My first Skoda and i'm very impressed and enjoying her alot.

Bought her for a very reasonable price with 6 months warranty. Being an excop car is has a few battle scars and stone chips, but nothing which I couldn't mask or hide with abit of elbow grease. Mechanically she drive's fantastic considering its got 111k on the clock

No plans major mods planned at the moment, getting some number plates made, needs an aerial fitting, some new mats and a good clean inside! Maybe bebadge it and spray the front grill black or colour code it, I hate chrome , also need a new windscreen as there is a million tiny stone chips which is annoying.

Anyways a few pics I snapped a week or two ago after I gave it a good wash.

Cheers

Welcome, even if you've been around for a couple of weeks

Like the car - hope it gives you a lot of fun

Looks very well for the mileage. Welcome to the site.

Welcome. Paintwork looks really good

Thanks for the compliments guys. I was very surprised how well it pulls considering its not exactly a light car, would love to have it remapped, but I doubt i'll have it done anytime soon.

The paintwork is ok, alot of scratches. It took a while also to get the paint smooth, alot of washing, claying and polish and it turned out half decent. But I think it could do with a professional detail and maybe a bonnet respray.

Nice looking Octavia mate.

welcome to briskoda.....

ex-cop cars are usually very well maintained, so shouldn't seem like over 100k

Indeed, its drives supurb! Very surprised and goes to show how well they are built considering they are well maintained

Just need to sort out the little niggles, do a few bits and bobs and i'll be more than happy with it

swmbo has about £5k to spend on a car in june, and I'm in the process of trying to talk her into an ex-police octy vRS (or indeed a 4WD 1.8t, then a few choice mods...)

Welcome mate, that's a very clean looking example to say it's got 111k on the clock

I was abit sceptical buying an ex-cop car but i'm glad I did now. 5k could buy alot of car and mods, get it done!

well I'll be keeping the fiat it will be swmbo's car, but we'll come to the meets in it!

as long as I don't have to deal with skoda garages or their CS department I'll be happy
