Seeing a lot more MkIII's on the road now

Featured Replies

So far this week I have seen more Octy III's on the road than I have since Launch.

 

I sort of enjoyed it when I thought I was the only person who had one, but on the other hand, I am glad that I am now not the only person driving one!!!

 

Now that the factory is back open I presume we will see more and more.

 

I saw rather a high percentage of them in Cornwall last week when on holiday!

And not that many Yetis...

I haven't seen one on the move yet, have seen one parked up though! There's Wales for you!  :giggle:

I was in Wales yesterday (Cardiff) did you not see me??

Am in Devon tomorrow, look out for me!!!!

The only one I've seen was a part of the Tour de France 'caravan' in Annecy when I was on holiday!

Saw a race blue VRS estate in Risca yesterday, was gutted, thought I'd be the first around these parts!

Ah they're all in south Wales then! 

Have seen plenty on the M4 - sadly I spend a lot of time commuting to The Smoke - but haven't seen a vRS yet. Guess it's a little early for that.

Have seen a race blue vRS estate in the dealers, and was underwhelmed. Need to see one on the road to make my mind up!

Capitol Skoda in Newport have shifted a few, there's a couple of us collecting midnight on the 1st.

I saw a black Octy III Elegance parked between a Ferrari and a Lambo on Vilamoura Marina last week! Still not seeing many in South Yorks or Notts other than a few on transporters on the M1.

Not many in kent. Only seen one on the road. (Or two if I look at myself in the reflection on shop windows, lol).

I'm enjoying my minority while I can ;-)

I've seen 3 1.6 petrol SE so far, a white & silver in work, and a brown near home

Wouldn't have thought it at the start, but the brown looked by far the best so far

Seeing quite a few in Worcestershire, but not many in Herefordshire.

But hardly any left factory. I bet you guys are mistaking Rapid for O3. ;)

I've seen none in Lancashire. Eee its grim up north!

Really? Im in Kent and i've prob seen around 20. I only drive about 60 miles a day but I think I spot them like a hawk lol 

Quite a few around Torbay at the moment, didnt see any for ages, then this last week or so have seen around a dozen, presume its because its the silly holiday season down here, all the grockles are down here now! Also, saw a race blue vRS estate a week or so ago, local dealer has a black vRS demo, so not that one!

I've seen three so far. Two in north Wales and one in Lagos in the Algarve! No local ones for me back at home it appears.

Probably see more Octavias than Rapids - in a couple of years time they'll be everywhere.

 

Saw my first Rapid taxi on Tuesday in Rotherham.

Not quite on topic, but I was surprised to see my first facelift Superb estate on the M1 this morning.

I also saw one of those about 3 weeks ago before I went on my hols, also on the M1, thought it was an Octy III at first from a distance as it's got the same creases around the rear number plate, definitely a case of hitting the photocopier on a 10% enlargement! :giggle:

ive seen lots of rapids then 3 white octavias (different reg) on the same day on the a55.  not seen any since apart from a race blue in mold thats always parked up at a factory

ive seen one in north wales, colwyn bay must say I am undecided on the creases on the boot, rest of it all looks very audi A4. Saw a VRS in a dealership in north wales, and I am also underwhelmed

East kent seems a bit light on ground with octavia 3. I've seen a few rapids one which was a taxi. So are the taxi ranks going to take on the rapid or octavia 3?
