|  Hello! New Octy vrs owner 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 Last edited by dzign; 20-04-2008 at 19:30. |

| Re: Hello! New Octy vrs owner 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. |

| Re: Hello! New Octy vrs owner welcome to briskoda..... ex-cop cars are usually very well maintained, so shouldn't seem like over 100k

| Re: Hello! New Octy vrs owner Welcome mate, that's a very clean looking example to say it's got 111k on the clock
