Talking Another one joins!

Hi

Just introducing myself, parents have a 01 Skoda Octavia Elegance Estate TDi and she is excellent. Had a Felicia and a Favorit before and had years of excellent motoring.

Although it has to be said that life for the Felicia at the end was not a happy one.

Yes, rolling 5+ times through a field does some slight damage

Although we now have the Octy!
Please excuse the images, dont know what I had been drinking before taking them

Welcome to Briskoda. I do like that colour on the Octavia.


PS: Why did the Felicia leave the road?

TBH the Felica served you well looking at the damage, I bet there are a few cars on the road today that would have fared that well in a crash.

Oh and - Welcome

Thats exactly what the Police guy said when he came around to the house! He said she should have been at the hospital having rolled @ 60 down a field about 5-6 times. No other cars envolved, but it was a damp morning and I think that the road was just slippery + adverse camber.

Wasn't me who did that btw, was the mother She didn't have ANY scratches and not one drop of blood. Me on the other hand, I cut myself when it was at the garage and I was removing items from the car!!

Out with the old, in with the new as they say.

Hello and welcome.
It is a nice colour Octavia.
Good choice.
Goes to show that all the jokes that was made about the Skoda`s in their early days are not true.
As if that was a ford your mother would have been in big trouble.
You will have loads of fun on this forum.
