The Octy is in, the FUN can begin

Featured Replies

The wait is finally over, and this week I was at my dealers to collect my Octavia vRS estate.

It was ordered on november 22nd, and has the long list of addons. Such are DSG, F&B sensors, SunSet, towbar, upgrade to 12 speaker Sound System (plays AWESOME), Colombus, sunroof, silver rails, Neptune 18" alloys for summer tires and 17" Zenith for winter (Nokian 205x50x17 - phenomenal winter handling), Maxi Dot, RS Supreme, folding mirrors, multi steering wheel, GSM III, Mobile Device Interface, Cruise Control etc.

It was a stunning view as I entered the dealers but, as you can se from photos below, it has really made a debut when it comes to weather.

Enjoy the pics, and do ask if anything springs to mind :p

This is what it was like outside:

So won't you rather come on in...?

I was a bit undecisive about the colour when ordering. SO glad I stuck with my gut feeling.

Now that's a little bang for my buck :p

...and enter the morning after.... What kind of car was that again? lol

I assure you - it has been dug out in a proper manner :) BTW wifeys Polo Cross in the background.

Great pics, and a lovely looking VRS. After much panic about another ice age in December, England has been pretty mild in comparison.

I'm a bit wheels obssessed at the moment. Note that Skoda Norge is delivering VRSs with Zenith alloys in Norway, rather than the 18" Neptunes.

In your first picture the Octavia 4x4 on the left has some unusual wheels on - any idea what these are. A previous post mentioned Xion winter wheels, but I've not been able to find any reference anywhere. I'd like to get hold of some 16" alloys as winter wheels for my Scout, and the ones in your photo look the part.

Cheers,

Les.

Epic! Great options list and lovely looking snow too :thumbup:

Lovely car and in the best colour :thumbup:

As for the snow :thumbdown:

As for the snow :thumbdown:

But if you're prepared for it, and the country's designed to function with it in place, then :thumbup:

:D

Stunning

Just as well you went for blue.. Had it been white then you could have lost it next morning in the snow emoticon-0136-giggle.gif

Good point! Bet they don't sell very many white ones in the Scandinavian territories? :rofl:

Look like Apollons, standard 16 inch fit in France on the 4X4

Thanks for all the great comments guys.

We went away for the weekend, and I am just in from my phone here, but I will write a proper reply on Sunday evening. Also regarding the wheels.

Until then, enjoy your weekend!
