Alright all
Finally bought a new car with my winnings
For the price I paid it's a hell of a car, returns 30MPG+, is quite nippy, the interior is mint, loving the half leather.
Yes, I know it's a Skoda, but show me a better car for the money

Winnings?
Good choice of car. You don't need me to tell you Skoda have a great reputation nowadays and the Octavia VRS is awesome value.

On these cars 130k is nothing. Especially with full Skoda history.

Does a remap make a huge difference? Worth the £250?

Well the Revo select is like £600 I believe and is switchable and adaptable.
But mine is very quick once it gets moving Easily on par with my RB5. Well worth it IMO and changes the car completely.

Also with 130k you might need a new flywheel and clutch soon unless it's been done. A remap will only highlight this
