Hi, Newbie

Am taking delivery of a new Octavia VRs, 170bhp crd in a couple of weeks. Wanted to get views and advice from people who've been there, seen it. First Skoda after 4 yrs of convincing myself not to. Couldn't argue against myself anymore, deal too good :yes:

Hi, Newbie

Am taking delivery of a new Octavia VRs, 170bhp crd in a couple of weeks. Wanted to get views and advice from people who've been there, seen it. First Skoda after 4 yrs of convincing myself not to. Couldn't argue against myself anymore, deal too good :yes:

I have a Petrol VRS, great car, but heavy on petrol when driven hard. Watch the upholstery, I used to where jeans with small studs in, the tear the leather, so beware it is not covered by the warranty.. Apart from that a great car..

welcome to briskoda

Small points

The automatic headlight washers on the xenon headlights don' work properly when below freezing, get iced up

The rear parking sensor also detect something when not there when freezing obviously ice in the detector

Front wheels spin easily when wet, although I think it must have something to do with my lead boots

I love this car, best and most fun car I have ever had

Enjoy !!!!!
