Golf GTD vs Octavia VRS
I’ve an orange ST five houses away from me. It’s a cracking colour 😎 Having gone from a vRS to a Golf (albeit a GTI) last year, I did notice a difference, but they are nice to have’s rather than decision makers. I liked the vRS seats, but the heated seats in the GTI are quite a step up. I do miss having a brightly coloured car Stick with the marque. Gaz

Time to replace my trusty Passat b5.5
If it feels flat it might be worth checking the Air Mass Meter (do they still have them in 2012?) before you think about mapping. Think it may have been before 2012, but I remember someone saying the five speed box was the better one to have. Congrats on the new car Post up some pics. Gaz

10j Porsche Rear wheels
Yeah, apologies, dunno where I got the 40 from. I was just tapping figures into WTF? Best not go by what I typed in I wouldn't have thought 235's on 10's was sensible either. G

Real world VRS economy
Mine should still appear in my Fuelly below. That's on a TSI mapped to c.300bhp, 29.5 mpg over 21k miles. Low because I don't drive economically, and my commute was four miles of nose to tail traffic. On a 34 mile commute, I'd expect to see late 30's, and on a run, I'd get it up in the low 40's without trying. It's a peach of an engine in my opinion Very addictive after being mapped (Revo stage 1). Gaz

Time to replace my trusty Passat b5.5
Hello Stanley I had a 1999 B5 (110 so pre PD) Estate, which I loved, and lasted several years with a mate after I moved it on. My Mk3 Octavia Estate was similar in size, if a tad smaller, but as a vRS was a very different car. My Mk1 Superb was cavernous compared to the B5. As Gissin said, depends on what you want/need. I may not have a Skoda at the moment, but I'll not hesitate to return to the fold, and quite fancy another Superb. Mine certainly lived up to its name. Gaz
