Well after the screw up on my order, the supplying dealer has loaned me a '54 Octy Hatch 2.0TDi Ambiente, I have got to say I'm impressed!

Bearing in mind it's not an '06 build so doesn't have the alloys etc I think the spec is pretty good, excellent delivery of power and comfortable too. Although I am finding the lumbar doesn't adjust much.

The standard headlights are better than my A4's ever were, the only real thing I am struggling to get used to is the 6 speed box. No problem using 6th but I find under quick acceleration 2nd comes far too quickly and 3rd isn't far behind! Also when changing down from 6th it's far to easy to find 3rd, but that's just gonna take getting used to!

Overall impressed with the car and plan on looking at the estate version for our fleet as the Mondy's come up for renewal.

Cheers

They are well spec'd cars, Ours has alloys and looks far more expensive than standard. The only thing that SWIMBO misses from our previous car, Fabia Elegance, are the heated seats.
