Hi guys, I have had my Octavia for 18 months now from new as my company car. Did I ever get some stick for choosing Skippy over all the other options but for me the gadget level for the monthly cost was leagues ahead of the normal VW/Audi/Mondeo choices. It is nice to be able to say to the guys ' what? You didn't get that as standard?' and watch the looks on their faces!!!! Was a shame to find out that if I had been a bit more vigorous in my bargaining I could have got the VRS but guess that will be for the next car!

I am now a true Skoda convert, still like the wife's Honda thou!, it is strange thou the amount of the guys in the office that have started asking questions about my car with the look towards their own new car choice.

I have only one small niggle with mine, is the suspension just a little too firm for a standard estate, not much to worry about but she does bobble a bit at motorway cruising speeds, anyone else noticed this?

Hello & welcome along.

HAHA I've tried the go faster option, can't do anything else on the M40!! I'm off to Cornwall this weekend with a full load so I'll be giving the second option a try!
