    Our Club launched in October 2004 to enable UK riders to get more from their snowboarding. Our members save £100s on equipment, holidays and slope time.

    Club Bashes are a great opportunity to meet like-minded people and have a laugh on the slopes in the UK and abroad.

    In 2015, Action Sports Club launched, providing more discounts across more sports for all members.

can't believe i'm about to say this.. but go for the octavia R, or the sports version whatever they're calling it - good performance, good price and does everything you need! same platform / engines as what they'd put in the VW and Audi versions, skoda are quite decent thesedays

I must admit, I was thinking about having a look at one of them. The sporty Octavia is the VRS and I've seen a couple of them in the price range - about £5.5k.

Worked on the dealer launch of the new Skoda Octavia VRS, and Scout , had to spend all day doing hot laps, awesome car .

Unless yor badge snob, buy one, they get less recalls and warranty issues than any other make in e VAG group, as the people who assemble them still appreciate working for Skoda

Went looking today - the garage did have a couple of 200bhp petrol vrs's from 06 and 07 which were tempting, but then there was a really nice Mazda 6 sport there as well -185bhp and half as much road tax...

I've just realised that it's been 6 months since I've been on a snowboard, that's the longest period in over 13 years! Getting there though, it won't be long. Hopefully.

Was told yesterday that I'm being made redundant in December. Evil / Very Mad All plans to snowboard have been shelved until I find a new job and can pay the mortgage. (apparently that's more important)
