  1. I have a 64GB SD card, it's full to the brim and it's brilliant!
  2. I have a 1.4tsi with 17 inch wheels and I hear bugger all when I'm driving, it's as quiet as a mouse
  3. I don't see the point of the VRS, maybe I am stupid but I think the 1.4 TSI is quick enough
  4. I have the 1.4 TSI engine and it is fantastic, it flies up hills doing 60 in 6th gear with no issues what so ever, it drives as if it's on a flat road. It goes very very fast and yeah, if you get the 1.4 you will not be disappointed!
  5. The piano black comes as standard with the Columbus sat nav
  6. Hmmmm perhaps this is the problem, I shall invetigate, thanks guys, I shall let you know if I have cracked it (not that I'll know until it rains again)......
  7. I prefer the standard Mk 3 one to the VRS one by the looks of it. The Octavia looks fantastic at night and it feels different too, maybe it's just me getting lost in the ambiance but she's a beaut to drive after dark!
  8. People I have 2 questions that I would like help with please. Question the first, can you catch the voice on the columbus, I'm not saying I dislike the lady but to be honest she's a bit serious and I would rather have an Irishman (I love the Irish accent, it's soothing). Number 2: The automatic wiper function doesn't seem to be working, I've set it up in the settings and the lights are set to automatic but the automatic wiper function doesn't appear to be working! Thanks
  9. It doesn't look anything like the official VRS pics Skoda released a while a go
  10. The dealers always guess, bit rubbish really
  11. 8 speakers is correct, the ones in the back are huge!
  12. My apologies, I can't believe I forgot to mention what car I got ha ha, it a 1.4 TSI Elegance Hatch in Race blue, I must say this is the first time I've fallen in love with the car, I keep wanting to look at it ha ha I just went for the standard speakers in the end, I was tempted by the Canton but the speakers in the Octavia are so good I'm happy I saved my money, I've changed the bass and treble settings so it sounds even better!
  13. I drove it from the dealer to Portsmouth and got in the longest traffic jam ever, about an hour and a half getting in Gunwharf then about 2 or 3 hours getting out! But, in that time I have decided the following: it's really fricking comfy, it smells bloody brilliant, it's quick, it's so easy to use, the columbus is worth every penny, the bluetooth is great, the speakers are great, the stop/start system was brilliant, it looks amazing, handles really really well, is comfy, so much room, everyone thus far loves the colour and the girlfriend loves it (I'm worried she may steal it from me). For me, the Octavia was worth the wait and worth every penny it is fantastic, I drove it home tonight and it looks great at night, I had a lovely easy drive from the girlfriends house and it was something else I am really really impressed. This is my 4th car and my 2 cars before my Fabia were old bangers so if you think I am being over enthusiastic of the car or it's not as good as..... I don't care, I love it and I wouldn't change it for any other car!
