Hi all,
The wife bumped her Skoda Octavia recently, and we had to get it repaired
by the insurance company (it caused quite a lot of damage the plastic
elements etc). The accident involved her hitting something head on (yes, I
know......). The bumper, frame underneath, bonnet, grill and both light
clusters where replaced, but the light clusters seem out of line to how I
remember them. I've not managed to find another Octavia of the same type to
compare it with, so was wondering - does anyone know of any website that
might have good, clear close up photos of the light clusters to let me
compare with?

Thanks in advance for your help.

Wander over to briskoda.net and you'll get all the help you need.

Mk1 or Mk2, cause I've probably got pictures of mine you can have as well.

It's a 57 plate, not sure of the mark sorry - is there an easy way to
check?

Thanks.

Yours is most likely to be a Mark 2, I'd think, but late-plate Mark 1
Octavias aren't unknown.

Almost certainly a Mk2 (unless it's a taxi).
