My First Skoda

[bajabugsteve]

Morning all,

 

I've recently bought my first Skoda - a 2017 Octavia 2.0TDi vRS hatch.  Liking it so far, came from a Kia Sportage 1.6GDi - poles apart in terms of performance!

 

I'm looking forward to learning more about my Octavia - these forums are a wealth of information :-)

Welcome, I too came from a Sportage to a 67 plate VRS..

You won't regret it;)

I don't think I will!  The buying experience wasn't as good as I expected it would be - I bought 'unseen' as the car came from another branch of the same dealer and only looked over it on the day of collection.  Of course, I was so excited and I overlooked a couple of scratches that are going to niggle me now. I suppose the colour (quartz metallic) shows light scratches more than a white Sportage!

I noticed it more in my pocket, 55mpg as opposed to 40...

Mine was a white Sportage too..

All the best!

Welcome to life in the Skoda family. Wife went from a 2009 Kia Picanto to a 2012 Superb Elegance, quite an upgrade.
