Skoda spotted thread

[brad]

Why isn't this thread a Sticky......Mods.......??

please don't encourage the mods to have an interest in the Skoda section

[K1W1]

I think the days of this thread being a sticky are past. When it was started it would have been very rare to see a Skoda on the road now whilst they are not common it not unusual for many people to see Skodas regularly and sometimes several a day in many of the major eastern cities.

Hi all, at the risk of sounding like a stalker on my first post...

A nice Black pre-facelift Octavia wagon, Pennant Hills road near Kings, westbound. A bit past 7 this morning.

Been lurking for the past few weeks since I visited Trivett Skoda in Blacktown, recently I've been considering one!

Black RS near Brisbane Entertainment centre on Wednesday.
Grey TSI Octy Wagon (Hire care) Caboolture Thursday.
Could not believe I saw 2 Skodas in one week!

Big Day on the Skoda "Optic Nerve" as I went out and did my Christmas Shopping.

Driving from Maitland to Newcastle saw a Race Blue VRS Liftback, and also a Black VRS Liftback. (Not sure of the correct paint name for the Black)

Later, I saw near Strathfield Kotara a Brilliant Silver VRS Wagon with roof racks. It wasn't the Wife, cause I had just sighted her earlier and she doesn't have roof racks. (Lol)

Fairly sure it wasn't Dazag, as it appeared to be a female driver, and the car was in need of a wash.

At least 3 Silver VRS Wagons in Newcastle then.....cool.....

I think I may have another neighbor with a Skoda - this time the same model/colour as mine. It was parked just off Concord Rd near the Homebush Bay Drive intersection. I am not sure if it is the same one that is always parked near Barnwell Park golf course, Five Dock. I will have to start taking more notice of number plates!
I also followed a blue RS wagon from Ryde to Homebush Bay Drive yesterday afternoon (again, possibly the same one?).

Yeah it may have been forum member "MJD" who lives in Redhead i think, he has a MY10 Silver VRS Wagon .

Mine is currently in the shed about 2/3 the way through being clay barred, polished & waxed, and it's coming up nice too. Wanted to get it looking sweet before i start videoing it for my concept ad Also the wife drives it just as much as I do, so you could see her cruising around in it.
But i have to take it into Kotara ( Altapac) for roof racks tomorrow, getting prorack whisper bars fitted. Also am booking it into Ashley at Audi/Skoda service centre for a wheel alignment just after Xmas - thinking the right rear camber is slightly out.

Looks like Skoda is doing some sales in the Newcastle area then if we're spotting a few more these days Good to see

What are you using for wax & polish? Is your car white?

Ill do mine at xmas in port stephens. Just got a heap of Poorboys stuff. White Diamond Glaze, EX-P sealant & White Natty’s wax. Should come up looking good.

Saw a race blue FL RS wagon parked at Eastern Creek Maccas on the M4, was driving past at 100km/h in my corrida red FL RS Liftback

Car is bright silver ( metallic ). I'm using what i previously had in the shed ( Meguires - clay bars, paint cleaner & polish , with Mothers premium canuba Hard wax ) although looking to buy some good quality dodo juice for the next polish/wax ( Lime prime lite pre wax cleaner & Supernatural Canuba wax - one of the VW forum members runs a detailing business - http://www.carcareproducts.com.au/products/dodo_juice and he gives forum members a discount).

even though the car is 16 months old, spends most of it's non-drive time parked in the garage and only has 20K kms on it, it still needed a clay bar and you notice the difference.

Will post some pics up once I finish doing it.

Where ya holidaying in Port Stephens??

Maybe should see if anyone in the newcastle area wants to meet up in at the Newcastle foreshore and have a BBQ at the rail sheds there..........
