Short version - they like it.

Very nice. In 1.8T petrol please. Would need DSG though.

Very tempting, but not just yet

Agreed almost exactly. Will stick with my fantastic FL Petrol vRS for now.

It will be three years old in July. Will run it for another two-three years, but I am already (slightly sadly perhaps) excited about an Octy III when the time comes. Very pleased with what Skoda has done. I'm less keen on BMW, Audi, Merc etc than ever.

The question will be whether to go vRS or 4x4??

It'll be fun choosing.

To add, won't buy new again. Was great fun, and fantastic to get exactly the spec I wanted, but as soon as the small scratches and marks come along (very quickly, have two small kids), it's a like a second hand car!

2-3 years old next time.

So, someone out there, please order me a silver 2013 vRS Octy III DSG estate, petrol, Columbus, xenons, curtain bags, ACC, sunroof & rear park.

I'll buy it from you in 2016!!
