VW Passat 54 plate Highline saloon with the bulletproof 1.9 AWX TDi 130 engine. With a very nice remap from AMD Essex lurking somewhere in the ECU. The front lifts up like a speedboat, the engine wants to get out and run down the road lol.

104k miles, playing at it! She will never die.

We use the Mrs Skoda Fabia VRS for day to day stuff which we're going to replace with an Octavia VRS in the not to distant future and I use a Transit Connect for work.

Skoda cube van for commuting, Skoda Monte Carlo for comfort, and a Pinarello Dogma 2 to keep the miles down on the van.

2012 Kuga 4x4 TDCI. I went to look at Part x'ing it today and all the dealerships were closed. I didn't realise though there was a lot of people looking around.
