    Well, my Clio was finally in a sorry state of affairs. Had a kackered camshaft bearing, badly worn driveshaft, clutch needed doing and half the electrics didn't work - Heated mirrors, electric mirrors, heated rear window and radio.
    So decided it was time to trade it in whilst it was still worth a little something.

    And got myself one of these:



    Can you guess what it is yet?








































































    Well, my Clio was my first car, so this is a slight upgrade!
    Octavia vRs 2.0ltr TFSI.
    £9995 (with 12 months MOT & service, bought from Bekenham Skoda)
    18" Alloys, Dual Zone Climate Control, Electric windows all round, 6 CD player, plus so much grunt!

    We now have two VAG motors
    Let me know what you all think!

    mac - the detailer in me is screaming.

    interior - poorboys interior dressing - smells gorgeous and gives a beautiful matt finish.

    dress that engine bay too - it deserves it!

    but, having said that, it's still a Skoda.

    No, I'm not jealous.

    Haha, thanks Esh. I think...?

    Is the poorboys interior dressing to be used on the leather on on the plastics?

    For the engine bay, I assume some WD-40 on the dark plastics, but what on the light grey stuff?
