Featured Replies

Sadly loads of crap cars have twin exhausts these days, people carriers, pointless SUV's, all sorts of crud.

  • Can't see that anyone has posted this yet, so though I'd pop it up. New video out today.  I noticed I was the second view.   Have to say, it looks good.   http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1WbzoVrIZ

  • Can you not take this to a new thread. I'm subscribed on here for mkiii vrs updates. Not the age old argument of diesel vs petrol. Christ you'll be slagging off macs and pc's next :(

  • I will never understand those that defend their own car make by slagging other makes off. OK, if you've had a particularly bad experience with a certain car make, tell the story, etc. but don't sugge

You could argue only v6/v8 cars have any need for twin exhausts

I quite like the look of the exhausts on the VRS. The reason many now have twin exhaust is for symmetry. Looks much better with the symmetrical look

Looking at those pics, nice to see the new vRS colour is............Race Blue :giggle: I would however expect even SUK to chuck in at least some vRS unique 18s as standard and lower the suspension otherwise it wont look any more sporty in profile than an Elegance on Golus and standard suspension?

Race blue,mmm looks like it will get even more common lol

As for the car it's not very Vrs looking at all too me,hopefully the hatch is better,even 17 inch neptunes look better than those wheels,it doesn't look much more aggressive at the front than a standard Octavia. Seats are nice tho, I agree with nick it looks awfull high!

Interesting to see they've fitted it with the Scout suspension option. Good news for fans of oversized snowchains!

Facetious reference to the ride-height?

Funny how people are (rightfully) complaining the 4x4 isn't tall enough and also complaining about the vrs being too tall. Did their suspension engineer get hit by a bus after getting the one ride height sorted?

Do they have a suspension engineer!? I thought they just waited for VAG to test everything, then raid the parts bin and hope for the best! :rofl: Even those seats look like they are nicked from an RS4 prototype bin! :rofl:

why has it got chrome on it? I thought it was going to be black round the bonnet and windows.

also if that's the only interior available, I would stick to red white or black! !

cant see any flappy paddles? is this a multi function steering wheel..on a manual?? finally!

I order white Octavia Combi rs III. I think the white colour is even better for combi. I order antracit wheels "GEMINI" 18".

Exactly what I would choose next time....if theres a next time of course! TSi DSG (diesels great but becomming ever more power hungry!). Not a big fan of the 19" Xtrem wheel, over designed IMO.

White looked great in the preview pics and I'd thought that would be my first choice. Green looks better than I'd expected though.

Yep, likiing the green a lot now too after seeing those pics. Red is nice too, looks like it's got a black roof?

Wonder if they'll do yellow?

There's yellow as an available optional color. It's been on the configs for some time now.

The thing is that these online configurators don't have the option for the "Black package" to make the car look like in the official photos and all the photos we've seen so far don't have it. Let's hope it will be available to order in July, as it makes the car look much better than the bling "chrome".

Grey is really nice :) the green is nice too. I just still think there not far off the standard octavia! Not very aggressive looking for some reason.

I think the 19in wheels could make the difference there. Wheels can really transform a car. I remember seeing a Fabia RS on standard wheels (the pic is on here somewhere) At first glance you would think it was a normal Fabia.

Meteor grey or red diesel hatch for me I think looking at these

Don't really like the seats - the material/cloth looks cheap, but the shape and contours look good. Probably not UK spec wheels either as they're horrid and as others have said more 4x4 than vRS but that could be down to the suspension chocks. Whole car reminds of an Audi A4 of about 2006/7 vintage.

Not really impressed tbh.

+1, not excited. Perhaps it's the wheels and ride height.

Not looking too good in those pics, it looks much better in the publicity ones.

The dealers hear say they can't see them selling very well. Most rs owners will not be trading up as there not impressed so far

Tbh not many will trade in as a lot of people on here went for the blackline, as for people with non blacklines that a difrent question haha.

What makes you think that?

 

I bet my non blackline is as high or higher spec than your blackline :P

Possibly because they weren't only well specced but also a bit of a bargain as the run out model. :)
