I bought it :)
For those that don't know, it's a Skoda Octavia vRS Estate w/ 170bhp diesel tied to a 6spd manual. Happy.

You bought a Skoda at the Mini dealer? As a zany scheme, that rates at least a 6.

Congrats! Call me jelly! Did you get the diesel or the petrol?

Nice, good combination of decent running costs, quickness and practicality. I wouldn't mind one myself.

Cool car! Post some more photos. I am not familiar with this vehicle.

Exactly! 55mpg and £205 tax, I'm a happy boy

Very nice Octy vRS in the best colour I know. The blue really comes to life in the sun.
I know it's sad but I do like seeing cars from where I am living a new life elsewhere and have probably seen this year running up and down my streets for a few years.

That is really nice! What does the vrs package add on?

Diesely weasely, I need good mpg, and it's still got a bit of pace.

I don't even get 55mpg out of my diesel Panda haha. That has a lot to do with my driving and living in a city with heavyish traffic though.

+40bhp, different body style (front and rear bumpers), slightly lower and stiffer, some badges. I think that's about it.

'PX' is a Carlisle plate, I live in Carlisle. :)
I can also just make out what looks to be 'Telford' on the lower edge of the licence plate. Where my Skoda is from.

I knew you lived in Carlisle, I'm just down the A69 in Wylam. Still though; number plate stalker...

It's a very sad thing I know. It's like when I see an Eddie Stobart truck in Europe or Malcolm Wilson's rally cars racing abroad.
I need to get out more. Lol.

Thanks! I have to wait for 10 days as the alloys are getting refurbished, and there's some bodywork to be touched up too. I'm still silly excited, it can't come fast enough.
