Skoda Fabia in Camden last night, black with dark tint.

Seeing more and more skodas around!

A Fabia? Are you sure? None have ever been offered for sale in Australia.

Red Roomster in Heidelberg West this morning. Looks terrific in that colour.

That was me on a quick errand to Monbulk! Only had it for seven days so it didn't take long to get spotted - spotted you too. Absolutely loving the Superb but feeling really lonely, have yet to see another one out here in the eastern suburbs.

You have interesting number plates they had me fooled for a sec. I assume that they are initials or something.

I hate to say this but I noticed the car and thought for ages it was an Octavia (I was behind it in the left lane for the readers). It was only when I noticed the sharks fin on the roof instead of the aerial that I had a better look and realised what it was. It's certainly light in there with all that glass on the roof. It was noticeably brighter inside than other cars.

I have seen a couple of Superb sedans around the hills on the weekends so there have been some at least visiting the area.

In the couple of weeks leading up to me joining, I did see a few Octavia's around the streets of Geelong, but since joining not a one to be be seen Hopefully that changes real soon. Great to see other members out there spotting one another!

My athletics coach just bought an MY11 Octavia 118TSI DSG liftback in silver. Yes I helped .

Yes, they're my initials but just general issue plates that I reserved in 1987 and have migrated from car to car. For some reason with pre-ordered plates, they left off the "Garden State" label, which is fine and I reckon the green lettering goes well with the Skoda badge. I picked up the next three plates in sequence for my other vehicles, much more economical than the special combo plates. Love the panoramic roof, makes the car feel even larger than it is inside, the grandchildren seem rather fascinated by it too and in reference to other threads here, it doesn't let through nearly as much heat as the windscreen.
