| Hello there.. I'm Daz. I work as a train driver in the east midlands (UK) and i own a Octavia VRS Diesel.. i have had it just over a year now and im really chuffed with it..it's the 2nd Skoda i have owned ( my last Skoda was a middle range Superb) i liked the look of the Octavia VRS but i couldnt really afford to run a petrol one.. I said to my local Skoda garage ''If you bring out a Diesel version of the VRS then i'll be more than happy to buy one'' I think somebody must have had a brainwave up at head office as a few months passed and i got told that they were bringing one out it's great to drive and the handling is good on it too... even for a Diesel it's quite rapid but i also have that much required economy on long runs.. i can get just over 500 miles on one tank and have averaged 40-45 MPG.. I look forward to chatting with you all online and hopefully eventually putting faces to names on here at meets. Cheers Daz |

| Hiya Daz. We don't seem to have any regular Midlands meets at the moment. We'll have to see if we can get something organised now the weather is getting better
