Hi everyone, I have reached 100000km (62137.119 miles) with my 10 years old Rapid, All the best!

Heya, another nice milestone for my 1.2TSI. All the best from Romania

Sorry I forgot to include the proof :

Hi everybody, just reached 50000km (31068.56 miles), the engine is a 1.2TSI. Very pleased with the car. Well, maybe the fuel consumption could have been better but I'm not complaining too much. We are doing mostly short urban trips so a high consumption is expected. All the best!

Hi everybody, I have just reached 40000km with my 5 years old 1.2TSI, so far so good. All the best

It happened to me also and the dealer said they can't reproduce the issue and most likely the car mat was the cause. Since then it happened again two times but I was lucky the road was straight and nobody in front of me! Pretty freaky I would say. All the best!

Hi everybody, please notice the trip counter, almost perfect All the best

No worries, enjoy your Octavia Have a great weekend!

Hi, do you have some pics? I would like to carry 3 bikes, is there a possibility to adapt the roof rack? Oh...and will you ship it to Romania? Many thanks, All the best from Timisoara

Hi everybody, just reached 30000km with my 2013 1.2TSI. No troubles so far (knock on wood ). All the best from Romania!

I don't know about the Rapid, but some (if not most) other cars have an additional fuel anti-theft feature that prevent the insertion of a tube to suck the fuel out. Does anybody know if this is the case with the Rapid? All the best from Timisoara!

Heya, never happend to me, and we get some serious negative temperatures here. Would be useful to have a de-frost spray can handy or to cover the cap with a small plastic bag (simply cheap ). All the best!

Oh sorry that happened! Could have been much worse though (the family suffered no injuries, that is the most important thing). I had an accident myself (http://www.briskoda.net/forums/topic/354513-unlucky-saturday/) and I can only confirm that the Rapid did his (or her ?) job in keeping the passengers safe. I hope all will be sorted out in your favour in the end, dealing with the insurers is no easy job. All the best from Timisoara

Totally agree, absolutely not to bad . Mine is exactly 2 years old and reached 22000km. It is the low-powered 1.2TSI. The only problems were the water in a rear door (solved by the garage) and an unexpected acceleration (the guys from the garage told me that it probably was the acceleration pedal that was somehow blocked by the mat; I'm not buying that entirely but it never happened since). I'm satisfied with the fuel consumption, it is around 5.2l/100km, outside of the city area. I tend to use it only in the weekends for longer trips and prefer the tram for commuting daily because the traffic is awful and the fuel consumption goes up really fast. So far I'm satisfied with the choice, All the best from Timisoara!

Heya! I'm glad to have my car back, and it is in good shape too. It looks like they did a proper repair. They used only Skoda original parts and offered a 2 years warranty. Thanks everybody for your messages, All the best from Timisoara!
