Wednesday 5th March - the Octavia has landed

And there's me, knocking those eedjits on "Watchdog" type consumer shows who, having spent wads of cash on something they've never seen in the flesh, complain about being rippped-off, bidding (yep, fleaBay) the best part of 6 grand based on a couple of photos and a phone call...
That said, and having spent a couple of hours wth the ex-owner and driven it home from Frodsham, I am now the happy owner of a top of the range, very shiny, reasonable mileage turbo diesel estate complete with SatNav, bluetooth phone kit and several additonal bells and whistles, now sitting outside the house, all for almost £3k better than book price! And I just off loaded the Astra for more than advertised.... So now I have the car I wanted for the drive to Landeck in May; let's hope we have plenty of water to make the drive worthwhile!
