Back to update 3 months late (sorry)! Garage diagnosed as Slave Cylinder dead, which spat Hydraulic Fluid over the Clutch Assembly and recommended that he should also replace the Duel Mass Flywheel (car has done 130k Miles). The place I bought it from agreed to pay for Slave Cylinder, Clutch Assembly and Labour at a cost of approx £700. I followed the recommendation and paid for new Duel Mass Flywheel at a cost of £390 inc VAT. Its been a dream to drive ever since!

Just had the same thing happen to me today 🤦‍♂️ I've rung the garage that I bought the car from and they have told me to get it checked out at a garage. I told them there is a Skoda place down the road from me and they said that their warranty doesn't cover main dealers, just independent. So plan B is an Independent Skoda Specialist near me instead. I have to ring them in the morning to try and get the car recovered to them for diagnosis. I'll keep you posted on the outcome. 🤞

Hi All, Yesterday I picked up my first Skoda. 64 plate Octavia vRS Estate 2.0TDI in Race Blue. I wonder how many cars since the original registry entries back in 2013 onwards that are appearing in here again now.

Hi All 👋 I am now the proud owner of my first Skoda! As of yesterday I now have a 2014 Octavia vRS in Race Blue in standard form as far as I can tell so far. My first proper drive (apart from the test drive) was the journey home after collection. 2 hours of country roads, so I had a nice 'spirited' drive and loved every moment! It's genuinely the nicest car I've ever owned (even beating my old '94 Impreza!). Power delivery and steering precision were really confidence inspiring! I can see that it would be easy to put a few points on your licence if you aren't careful 😂 As a photographer, I will definitely doing a cool photoshoot at some point soon 📷
