that's a bit presumtious walkie. I reckon it's a 2.8 Superb with 20" rims and a twin turbo upgrade kicking out 450 bhp...as a guess.

Octavia vRS' are great fun but at group 16 insurance they can be very expensive for young(er) drivers .

Build up to 3 or 4 years no claims and they do become viable (if you are willing to make some sacrifices - I've heard that kidneys can sell for a lot on the black market these days )

Still, even expensive insurance could not stop me getting one earlier this year (when 23 years old) Now I've started on the slippery slope of 'needing' more power I may find out just how much my kidneys are worth

Hi Lorraine. I'm also in Blackpool, if you click my link, you will see my fish and chip shop. Hopefully you will pop in and say hi. My sister works at the same place as you too.

Excuse the interjection, but I gather corduroy is the new black. Gotta be beige corduroys then, possibly a touch flared

Sorry, must keep out of other's conversations

Although you are considerably older than myself , I also feel old, vividly remembering your avatar in it's finest hour. Left school in May 88, !7 in the July, and driving on a full license in the September.

Would love to go on, but my wrist hurts from typing. Could be arthritis.
