I just picked my Octy this morning. It's 1.2 TSI DSG, black. Got it with 17 Km on it. Now it already has 250

First impression is WOW!

Over the years I've driven many cars including Audi A3, A4, Golf, Jetta, Seat Cordoba, Seat Toledo, Opel Astra, Opel Vectra, Toyota Corolla, Mazda 3, Mazda 6 and many more and I must say that my Octy is by far the most enjoyable car I've driven so far.

The engine is surprisingly quick. It feels like 1.8 engine.

DSG is superb. I really like it.

Fuel consumption today was about 5.8 l/100Km and that included some start/stop driving in rather heavy traffic.

Images will soon follow

Indeed...

Before taking it for the test drive I was under impression that 1.2 would be just damn too small, but I was really impressed by the performance, and now that it's finally here, I'm even more impressed!

Is that the 105bhp version? Now the 1.4 with 170 odd I'd be interested in trying!

I thought that the difference between the twincharger 1.4 and the 1.8 TSI was practically nothing with regards to CO2 / MPG / BHP etc...If so then the 1.8 TSI would be the choice due to less complexity and operating at lower compression. That was my thining anyway and so I bought one.

Yes it's the 105bhp version.

Ok, so I promised some images, here they are... Sorry for the ****ty quality, they were taken with an iPhone in front of my house on my way to work in under 2 min...

Lovely Car!

Looks nice mate.

Hope its got air con lol.

Very shiny! I wish my Black Magic Octy looked that clean

"Hope its got air con lol. "

It's funny you mention it because the temperature here today was around 30 degrees Celsius and we're in mid November for crying out loud

A few min after I took these, the sun came out...

For the most of the day the air con was on 22 degrees
