Was in my dealers yesterday and took a few pics of one in the showrooms.

Also took one for a test drive.

What can I say?

it drove. It appeared to be quieter than my one but I am comparing two completely different setup cars.

Seemed to have a bit more elbow room.

Definitely had more leg room in the back.

It was a 105 / 1.6 so nothing much to say there either except it drove.

Thanks for posting - but definitely not my first choice of colour!

Yeah brown isn't 'right'. Looks like it has lots of toys though.

I will give you one guess and I bet you will get it right first time round :p

Vectra..You went back in time and took the Octavia with you!!!!

Now can you find me in 2011 and sell it to me?

Very nice colour, not exactly Milan Brown but nice indeed, lets hope other BL revival colours come out, fireball red, sunburst yellow, limeflower....

Have only seen the new Octavia in the flesh in silver, and think that the dark colours look much better even if I am not keen on the brown - appears to be the 'in' colour as it is popping up on lots of different makes of car at the moment.

I definitely like the colour, currently have a Superb combi in Mocca brown and was disappointed when it was dropped off the options but since I have only seen one other I can understand why. I will definitely look at the VRS estate when I come to exchange the Superb at the end of the year
