Hello all.

New member here. Just doing tonnes of research on an Octavia VRS as my next company car. I've had a mixed car history as follows:-

Mazda 323f BA 1998

Primera GT 1999

Merc C180 1998

CIvic Type S 2.2 Diesel 2009

Insignia Elite 2013

Audi A3 Black Edition 2010

Passat CC GT DSG 170 2010

Merc C220 Sport 2014

The Merc is a company car but the contribution is silly so giving that up for something cheaper, hence the search for a Skoda ????

I was about to arrange a test drive with a view of placing an order by end of October but then thought I would check when the model is being face lifted. A few websites are guessing 2017 but does anyone here have any ideas? I would rather wait for the facelift but can't really wait beyond say March 2017.

Thanks

From what's been said here, it seems likely that there will be an announcement by March, but I doubt that you would receive a new face lifted car by then.

How about a Superb?

FL model will be available from January 2017, all models ordered in December will be a fl already. 

Dont worry this is one of those cases where the supermodel looks better before the FL .......
