Interesting...

Where?? Tried to find details but can't find anything....

I guess it will be using up some of the less popular parts and options before the facelift comes out? 

Given the last mk2 varient it's likes to be black wheels, leather and maybe some ice upgrade.

Last one was derv only iirc

I'm gonna say it's a dealer special - and doesn't actually officially exist - in an attempt to drum up sales.

maybe somebody got their hands on the last few of the 4x4 diesel vRS and is tarting them up

 Didn't Skoda do a MKIII Black line version.  1.6 Deisel ?

 

Surley you can't convert another MKIII Version with a different engine and call that a Blackline as well, i.e.  " Octavia MKIII 4x4 Tdi vRS Blackline " 

 

 

Skada have a run out model of the MKIII " Octavia SE Sport "  Is that the new Blackline, a SE Sport with extras.

They did a "Black Edition" of all models back in 2014

From Russia news dated the 23rd. No VRS.

Yep agreed, but thats a Black Edition not a Blackline. Black editions were across the range where Blacklines were only to one model ( I think )

 

The wife has had a Blue Line and a Silver Line in the Fabia range. They are normally  low sec cars with extras thrown in to make a special edition.

 

i.e., small leather pack, alloys, white roof, etc etc and usually limited to one engine size and bhp. Both the wife's were 1.2 petrols and both 70 BHP

Sounds like a dealer jumping on a bandwagon, that isn't there!

 

There are Black Editions across the Skoda range but no official Blackline in the Mk3 Octy.

Dealer is official Skoda agent to forces overseas / diplomatic service etc. They sale a large quantity of Skoda vehicles, and advertised the Mk2 Octavia Blackline months before the UK dealers, hence why I would tend to believe the advert to be legit.

Such as:

19" Extremes, Leather, Sat Nav, Sunset Glass and Black Pack???

Might be an end of Model run out as a new Octavia is out next year, it should look like a smaller Superb

 

Could be an SE with free extras and one off wheels and limited colours

Such as:

19" Extremes, Leather, Sat Nav, Sunset Glass and Black Pack???

 

Not forgetting the extreme cup holder
