Welcome to the new look VWWatercooled

After much work and little sleep there is a new version of the forums running on more powerful and recent hardware as well as an upgraded software platform.

Things are mostly the same, but some things are a little different. We will be learning together, so please post questions (and answers if you've worked things out) in the help thread.

The new forum software is an upgraded version of what came before, it's mostly the same but also a little different. Hopefully easier to use and more stable than before. We are learning together here, so please be patient. If you have questions, please post them here. If you have worked something out and can provide an answer,

  • Ambulance NSW Octavia Scout on sunday on Epping Road

    I normally manage to see a Skoda model on the Spit Bridge every saturday. Usually seems to be either a white Roomster or an Octavia wagon.

    Someone up the road has a new black Scout as well.

          Good to see there's more on the road. I'm currently in Paris so there are plenty of Skoda's around.

              • I almost felt compelled to take a picture as i didn't think anyone would believe me but i saw a light blue (icy blue) YETI yesterday!!

                Thats right a real life Yeti, i couldn't make out what model as i was sitting behind it in traffic a few cars up on Church St Richmond Vic. I must admit i was surprised it doesn't have the road presence i was expecting. I was expecting a wow factor but it kind of just blended in. I was at Richmond Skoda earlier on and they just seem to stand out so much more when sitting alongside the clinical Audi models, not so much around other makes.

                          So wish I was there with you boys. Would've been my very first "Skoda owners" meet.

                          • There are enough around you Dave to run into one of ours soon, although mine is now my wifes so won't travel so far, but I'm in Forest Hill/Blackburn, there is at least two others just near me and from memory bluefrog and yourself aren't far from here either. I have a friend with a black one out Kiwis way, but they don't count as they got a Skoda due to ours and aren't really someone we don't know.

                            I did get to drive ours again today and already thinking my next work car will be another, by then it will be the Audi designed version.

                            • Audi designed? Where is this new news?

                              • Not really new news, all the new Dubs are getting the treatment, the new Jetta is one, and if you look at the L concept you can see definite signs of how the exterior at least will look for the new Octavias and Superbs.....
