One of the issues is vehicle size. My wife wanted a smaller car (our other car is a Polo GTI) so the Octavia was as big as wanted to go anyway.

Made the deal today, get the car in around a week. Race Blue with the suede / leather seats and Canton system. Will post my review once I get it.

New member here. Considering a face lifted combi. Can confirm the facelifted vehicle sounds significantly better than the old one and the sound actuator is gone. I wondered whether the pops in sport mode on the overrun might have been synthetic because I thought you couldn’t get stock cars anymore with that because of particulate filters etc.. turns out you can. I know the EA888 is seen as a good engine but not a very sonorous one but I have test driven a bunch of them in different vehicles and the new Škoda sounds by far the best to me ears.
