Hi all,

I'm Andrew me the wife and the 2 children picked up our octavia eastate vrs last Saturday and within 1 hour had set off on our first holiday to the lakes took us 3 hours I don't do motorways anyway we traded in a mazda 3 sport tdi that was re mapped I do miss the bang of the acceleration and not having to change gears as much but when the warranty runs out will get it mapped. Overall though great car loads less road noise and no banging of suspension.

Hi, I can see why you don't do motorways, share some empathy for the twisty road approach myself.

 

Lovely roads up there and a nice cross country blast to the Lakes 4 up with bags

 

Welcome to the site and to SKODA. What made you jump from Mazda to SKODA?

wanted a bigger car and we both liked  the octavia we also now have a dog.the mazda was great all the toys etc. but we had to have the dpf cut out and paint was the worst i have had on a car rust spots all over and i had changed all 4 shocks buses etc and could not get rid on a banging noise all through the car.
