I think the Skoda Octavia is a great car - I'd love a vRS petrol or diesel. But as said, the differences are visible, and also hidden. They are cheaper for a reason.

I saw a crashed Mk1 Octavia beside a crashed Bora in a scrappy one day. Both were stripped of dash etc. The Bora had a approx 2-3" dia pipe running between the A-pillars, the Octavia had nowt there. I know which one I'd rather have a crash in....

You're not an 'Auld Fella' at 34. Far from it. But your ML would put 10-15
years onto you. I bet people would probably wonder if you've had botox or other cosmetic surgery when they see you after getting out of your car.


so thats what that beauty voucher is for! Mad the lengths that manufacturers will go to to improve their image

I work in Dublin City Centre and spend the walk from the bus to the office (and back) looking at cars. (It's a good mile walk)

(In my ears I've got my iPod playing and in my head I've got my own cool wall going on).

Loads of e46's, loads of e39's, loads of smaller Mercs, loads of everything infact, except Lexi. On a good day I might see three/four out of 1000's of different cars.
