Freddy from Sweden here. I bought this 1U Octavia a few weeks ago. I've done some smaller builds before. New paint and some other stuffs. This will be a new thing for me in many ways, despite the fact that this car is very old. I haven't had a car this new before haha :P
I work as a salesman at a junkyard in a small town called Kristianstad.
A car I did a few years ago. Lovely Beemer
I do miss this car. Many memories and new friends made because of this thing
GT-wheels, cheap coilovers, complete repaint, new interior, fully M3-kitted with M3 3.0 steering rack etc etc. Very fun to drive even with the smallest engine.
Another car close to my heart, my old Volvo. I hit a deer (!) with this one a few years ago during winter. The car looked like a mess obviously. A few days later the car was roadworthy again. You can't kill an old Volvo! A summerpicture from 2013 i think.
The Skoda is (as far as i know for now) completely original. It has some dents and scratches but hey. There's people doin paint and other things all day so it's not bothering me for the moment.
Bought some wheels on sale. They're brand new. 18x9.5
I tried them on with stock RS suspension. Looks quite ridicolous :P
I'm thinking about some sort of coilovers and maybe 215/45 tyres. For the upcoming season the top priority will be good suspension and to make the wheels fit. Haven't seen any skoda with these wheels so it will be a fun journey I hope.
I'll keep you updated when things happen
