I have now finally rec'd the car after the now standard long wait! Still impressed with caffyns ashford. Excellent handover from Aaron and car prepared to good standard with all extras as ordered. Will post after 1st service.

Glad you all like the wheels, I took a gamble when I ordered them and thought they would go well with the black.
Simon, yes it's just the sunset glass although I will probably add some sun shades as I prefer it a little darker for the kids in summer.

Picked up Scout today which was ordered in April with the following:
Black magic , zenons, drl leds, polished alloys, maxidot, varible boot floor, curtain airbags, front parking sensors, spare wheel and tow bar prep.
Really pleased with whole package including the wheels and good service by Caffyns Ashford, I have already put a layer of collinite 476 on and jetseal 109 on the wheels!!

Hi,
I've recently ordered an Octavia Scout (yeay!) which will be delivered around March (boo!) and I was looking at the options list and wondered:
Has anybody ordered the polished proteus alloys for the extra £80?
They look like they have a dark middle section (which i like) in the brochure but i dont think i can trust that picture. Does anybody have other pictures of them or can verify what they are like in real life
Thanks... oh, and hello
I am finally picking up my Scout tomorrow with those wheels, will try and do some pics if I can work out how!

Hi,
Does anyone have a pic or pics of a facelifted Scout in Black Magic finish? I've gone through Google Images and Flickr but can't see anything.
Perhaps no one has ever ordered a facelifted Scout in black...
Cheers,
PK

I have got one on order but not due until early September and will post some pics then if you like.

Yes thats the one.
Thank goodness!! I have ordered my scout from them and was getting worried for a minute.

Gaz is your Scout a diesel ? I think this may be the reason for the delay. My Scout does not have the polished alloys but it does have the LED's.
Nick, No it's the 1.8 petrol so cannot work out why the long wait. We added to our order only a few days after your post about the LED's. It's seems a bit of a lottery as to when your car is built.

Pickup next week !
Ordered my scout 23rd April and have not heard a thing, will contact the dealer today and see if they are still there !!
Just found out my build week has been pushed back to week 33 (16th August) car expected around 3rd Sept at dealers. They say this is due to adding the LED running lights and alloys!!? Still at least it will be a 60 plate.

Hi All,
Sorry if this has been covered but I cant find anything.
Had my 2006 Octavia II VRS for a while now but recently sometimes when I go to unlock it by pressing the unlock button on the fob it doesn't do the normal 'chirp' then straight afterwards the car resets both the clock and the trip counter back to zero ! Then all the warning lights stay on the dash for a short while after starting. eh?
A mate told me the battery in the fob needed replacing so I did that but the problem is still happening. The other day all the dash went blank for a minute or so before allowing me to start the car.
Does anyone know what's going on?
Cheers!
Had a similar thing on my VW Golf which turned out to need a new battery (car not fob) so I would get that checked.

Update for Gaz in case my other post gets burried. My Scout will now have the LED DRL's fitted. Cost £285 - the VAT.
Thanks Nick, I still had not heard from my dealer, it will be interesting to see when they actually get in touch!

Just ordered 1.8 tsi Octavia Scout from Caffyns Ashford. Excellent service from Aaron who got me cars to test drive and even offered to drive me to their other dealer ( 1 hour away) to view a Scout in the showroom. Aaron appraised my car when asked ( another dealer was not interested in looking at my car unless I was ready to order). Very good part ex and they have guaranted the price until new car arrives (10-12 weeks factory order) full tank of fuel also included with new car. rating so far 5/5 will keep you posted.

I have sent an email to my dealer for some info as I ordered a Scout on Friday, will keep you posted if I hear anything.
Pickup next week !
MY11 Octavia Scout LED DRLs
in Skoda Octavia Mk II (2004 - 2013)

Hi
I picked my Scout up last friday and have LED DRLs. As soon as you turn on the ignition they are on and go out as soon as you put on your headlights. I also have the xenons which are excellent.
