Don't mind them actually. Kind of resembles a Cavalier from those angles, just imagine a slightly enlarged Cavalier in that colour.

Not sure about the interior though, seems a bit bland to me for a car of it's size. The plod versions are probably kitted out nicely :cool

Am I a light sleeper or a heavy sleeper? Well that depends on how much I've had to drink...

Skoda's aint what they used to be....

Octavias are bloody good cars as they are basically rebadged passats..

And the Vrs one is stupidly quick too!

Good buy mate
Free Parking is a bonus, leaving my Cav in a carbon dust filled carpark is not.....
