    The Octys are a great car - I think just about everyone in Oz that has bought one has been very impressed. I wish more people would realize how good they are so they can sell a few more.

    Hi wombat,

    I see you're a cool runner as well - it did seem a familiar name !

    Anyway, I'll be at Princes Park tomorrow morning, most likely the 10. If you're there maybe we could catch up ... .

    Enjoy the Skoda - nice cars, driven a couple in Germany.

    As part of my job, my car goes everywhere and has distinctive plates....let alone the bright blue it is. I think the dealers were ecstatic that I bought mine, as its getting seen all over melb, and a few people I know are going to see them about a new car next week that I've talked to, so they should be happy with me.

    See you there Michael-I'll probably run the 5km as I'm injured and not running alot at the moment. Hoping for around 22 minutes. I'm easy to pick out-either look for the yellow Skoda or I'll be wearing a coolrunning singlet and a Cr cap with "Wombat out of hell" embroided on the back. What handle do you use on CR?

    I show mine off and sing it's praises to everyone that shows even a slight interest! I was very happy with the dealer as well (Bayford in Preston) so am happy to recommend them.

    Found another around the corner from me-the owners of the Cafe at Lysterfield Lake Park have a black Ambience. I am surprised by the attention it gets. Last weekend after a barby, I went back to the car to find a young bloke (younger than me anyway) looking all over it. He jumped when I unlocked it-he hadn't seen me coming.
    Everything I read and hear about the Octy is good-I can't understand why they aren't selling better. Maybe we all need to cruise more and show people what they can do.
    There's no Ausrtalian Skoda group on Facebook-might be time to start one I think.

    I've seen a few more around Perth lately. Like about 4 in the last week (nearly as many as I've seen in the last 6 months!).

    Hi wombat,

    Same as here, drbass.

    Good to meet you this morning.

    Nice yellow, I have to say. Won't lose that one in a carpark. Glad you like the car, and hopefully you'll get that rattle under control.
