Thanks for the reply. I thought as much, was thinking about getting a Wi-Fi dongle hence the question but don't think I'll bother!

Are there actually any benefits to using Skoda Connect over, for example, Android Auto which is what I tend to use for Google Maps etc.

Mine has been in the body shop for a couple of weeks now after someone crashed into it while parking at a supermarket Should have it back tomorrow. Been horrible waiting for it all over again but it has made me realise just how much I love this car! However, as my wife works from home a lot I have been making use of her Karoq which I have to say is another fantastic car from Skoda But its nothing compared to the VRS!! -

How do you actually do it? Might be a stupid question and i'm sure i could read the manual! Mine did it the first couple of times but hasn't done it since -

Mine was delivered, was never really given the option to be honest! Only a 56 mile trip so not too bad. Arrived in the snow so was quite dirty but the delivery driver took me round the car, checked every bit of dirt that looked like it may be a mark or scratch, very good attention to detail so all round a good service. I was of the same thinking as you beforehand though -

It’s a cleared drive but only due to cars in and out! we have had more than enough snow, really just want it to F off now! Took it for a quick spin but could barely get it moving, think I’d of rather waited a few more days than have it sat there teasing me -

Meant to be getting my 245 tomorrow but its looking more and more likely the "Beast from the East" is going to delay it -

That does help! Mine is also an 11 plate DSG which has done around 55k miles. gives me a bit more hope on a quick sell, thanks! -

Quick question, and please say if I should go to another chat for this but....does anyone know how easy it will be to sell a mk2 octavia vrs diesel? Im aware of the bad press diesels have been getting but intertested to know if this is affecting sales at all? Would be good to hear people's views. Would also give me a good idea of when to put it up for sale! -

My VRS 245 confirmed for delivery on the 1st march and just ordered a Karoq for the wife which should arrive in 12-14 weeks. Exciting times -

Cheers. Hope yours gets sorted soon! I was touch and go on the DCC but went for a 3 year lease so the cost spread across that wasn't as bad
