You will know if you ever see my blue RS wagon around the Concord area, it will be the one with the big gutter gouges in the front near side wheel.

How can I be mad at my other half

Saw a dirty TDi Octy wagon (silver) at the research park at Bundoora today, I think it might be a builders car, was bought from Richmond Skoda.

Could be one of the ones that was used in the Tour Down Under in SA earlier in the year. I think some of them went through the auction process.

Ah true......and a VW dealer would make sense....I was wondering whether there was a new dealer in the works coming up there. Strangely enough I got my window tinting done at Penfold Mazda and when I came back to get it, there were sales guys all over it. Apparently the mechanics had looked already. They used to do the Audi bit there so a lot of it would be familiar. They all asked me about it and reckoned it was put together really well, they were surprised and I wondered at the time whether they were thinking of selling them, if Richmond Audi can, Penfolds sure could and they would have the middleclass area of Melb stitched up.

I wondered at the time whether they were thinking of selling them,

There were strong rumours that Penfolds wanted to start a Skoda franchise in Doncaster. Haven't heard anything new about that for a few months now.

To be honest, they had been all over the car, and admitted that the mechanics had been under the bonnet as well. I didn't know what to think, but I know that tinters had given it a thrashing as well from a comment someone had made. I find Penfold Mazda sales guys in particular to be the lowest form of scum. The mechanics are ok, but just ok, compared to Ringwood Mazda they did a cheap job, but for a lot more $$. Penfolds are not the premium dealer think they are.
