Greenline Octavia

Now I know that the 1.6CR Greenline is not selling in vast numbers (according to Autocar) but I've just belatedly read an 'eco' test in the CSMA magazine.

Dissapointingly, they only quoted the official mpg and not what they got on a long run, like they did for a Seat Ecomotive. (That got 56mpg BTW on a 7 hour round trip form Cambridge to Goodwood..)

The low rev performance was compared to pressing on a wet sponge. I think it was reluctant to pull away smartly from a standstill at road junctions.

Is this the reason for the low sales figures?
