Liked that run got £70 for a £32 hire :D
They are used to London prices took them to the church from Selkirk and back with half an hours waiting time, well chuffed with the car and they said it made a change from bouncing around in one of those London boneshakers :lol: :lol:

Has bloodnock got the elegenace spec? i was looking at getting an SE when ordering but the S spec more that meets my needs, i don't like leather seats though, they are freezing in the winter and boiling in the summer, cloth do me to a tea but leather is easier to clean,

Yes it's the elegance, the front seats are heated and no, they ain't hot in the summer, possibly that's because they are a light beige and do not retain heat like black or dark colours do. Leather tends to breathe and feels very comfortable on hot days. They clean easy with cheap baby wipes from lidl's and it leaves a pleasant fresh smell afterwards.

Other plus side of leather is after someone guffs in the car it does not permeate the seat and lingers like a cloth seat allows it to. :?

many of the taxi drivers up here had their octavia's cloth seats reupholstered leather to keep clean easier, i myself just use seat covers are they are just as good, so yours is a 2.0 TDI CR Elegance 6 speed, what colour? skippy is steel grey i am Aqua Blue what are you? and what year is it? 2009

It's black 2009..I was going to buy the 1.9tdi in silver but this one came up at a year old with just 6,000 miles on the clock, so i thought as it was cheaper than buying a new one i'll have it...now done 108,000 miles with no major issues, still runs sweetly. think it needs a pair of rear shocks though, seems a tad bouncier than it used to do.

I'll keep this one for another 5 years if it stays good...normally i change cars after 3 years but its going so well i just cant see any good reason to change it.
