Nice, didn't know they did diesel Octavia VRS's. No great surprise though.

What figures do you get with the map?

Dont worry about what age you like what; I.m 60!!.
Sorry i have no video . She's not really a 0-60 car but over 400nm torque is always fun on the motorway especially when it's all in around 2000rpm which is just over 70mph.
Rpm limiter is up by approx 500rpm so have managed around 145mph in germany recently . It's all about midd range with diesels though plus of course over 40mpg .

Hi Benjamin.
Selection here,some from xmas (ho ho ho) and before the rims were gloss blacked and suspension mods. Also when i took delivery of the car in 2006. Looks like a family hack so had to do something for street cred!!

That looks amazing just standard. Definitely improved the looks there. I know this is a silly question, but which model is this? Fabia, Octavia, Superb?

Ah yeah. I thought it was pre-facelift. I'm really not a fan of these new ones. I cannot stress enough how great that looks, I'm a massive fan on family-wagons/estates which most people find weird me being only 17.

Thanks for that.
What will your first car be?. Try and avoid the Saxo,Corsa brigade and be different.
The little polo 1.4 3 cyl tdi's map up a treat!. Cheaper on insurance,tax too.

Hi Forgot this on u tube at Skoda club meet cosford 4 years back.
Not exactly doing doughnuts in the car park but car was standard then and i experimented with some LED fog lights which looked a bit naff. Still riding higher too!!. I don't come on till the last bit when i leave for home. but some interesting eastern block motors to see.
