Skoda Octavia vRS Combi 2.0 TDi 170BHP

I joined here at the start of 2007 looking for advice with the intentions of replacing my shoody Passat with a Mk1 RS but the lure of a MK2 Gold Gti was too much.

Then two weeks ago the Mrs sent me an email with a link to a vRS and the words “I want that one”. Roll on two weeks later and I dashed to Dublin to pick the car up. The Saturday morning before the VAGE 09 show. So far I delighted. Well, she is at least

Skoda Octavia vRS Combi 2.0 TDi 170BHP with the PD engine.

Usual Octiva spec with the following extra’s:

Factory fit alarm

Darkened Glass from the B Pillar

Electric Sunroof

Rear Parking Sensors

Hillhold

Headlamp Washers

Active Head restraints

Over the standard RS spec this Combi has approx 2350 worth of optional extras. Apparently. Nice though. Only two extra’s I’d like it to have 18’s and steering wheel controls. Maybe in time...
