Just saw Matt Watson review on the facelift, he did sub 6 seconds to 60 on a really crappy road, so Skoda being relaxex with their figures again...

I got a little bin for the door bin as well, and the dividers for the boot

Mine came with potenzas Also came with the phone holder and a cargo net set...and two brollies Maybe they think we get more rain than snow, so no snow brush in place of a brolly

after a couple of weeks behind the wheel, some more personal observations it feels more dynamic from the get go then the previous model, there is obviously a small power hike, but the gearbox in normal mode just feels quicker, throttle response in normal feels quicker. so it feels like it always just wants to go..it feels fast all of the time, it feels like its just ready to go at it straight away. and anybody else whos got velvet red...it looks amazing when the sun catches it, its got a flake in it that really pops, like a little golden sheen

my last vrs was my first ever auto after 30+ years driving..I got used to it after 3 days and now 3 years later and onto to my second auto I would never go back! its pretty fool proof, you cant accidently pick reverse while moving forward or anything like that..its all electronic and it just wont let you, I personally dont use auto hold as I find it an irritant in stop start traffic

They are a bit fiddly , and not very chunky, on a cold day I could see an arm snapping off, mine are just going into the loft Wheels are actually nicer than the previous 19's

so annoyingly in the uk the nut cover packet for the glossy grey doesnt include locking wheelnut size caps the only ones I can find in the uk are matt grey, so I may have to source form czech side I think!

First impressions then, it's very refined. The lack of extra artificial sound makes it just a nicer place to sit. Gearbox in normal mode feels a bit quicker to respond It's still easy to turn of the lane assist, but now there's a speed warning as well, it's in the same place so you just knock them both off at the same time. Velvet red looks lush Pics on Friday as detail and gtechniq getting done today and tomorrow

I suspect the garage will be keen just register the car...I am lazy and live in a coastal town with a tyrannical seagull population, the gtechniq has been great on my last 3 cars

And I ordered the glossy grey wheel but caps and centre caps from the parts department while I was there last night, they will just leave them in the car, I will be getting a full gtechniq treatment at some point in the next few weeks, so will leave the aero covers off when that gets done

Mine was built week commencing 11th November

Well it's here, picking it up Tuesday

Well mine has made it through Emden as in it's way to the UK..so not long now

This is only for the facelift RS, it hasn't been out long enough to need service yet has it
