love my RS. ride has been exemplary , esp considering 20 inch alloys . nonetheless, improvements i'd like :

 

• engine from Octavia 245
• anticipative AWD for shooting off from standstill
• sound boost off by default : easy-access on-button with selectable intensities , akin to seat-heater button
• wider track : less body roll, more room for 3 adults abreast at the back, sportier appearance
• better boot-netting arrangements for 7-seater
• fixed sunroof option
• volume/zoom knobs for Colombus
• fold-down armrest on driver’s outboard side
• adaptive cup-holders at the back
• gloss black door handles

Skoda is always 4 wheel drive when taking off. Up to 15 km/h at least and then depending on grip. 60/40 if I remember correctly.

Yep, defo on the 245 (or the 264 better still) engine or we can always dream of a V6T 🙄 for the vRS (never gonna happen though). 

 

Default OFF for the start/stop. 

 

Dsg paddles as standard. 

 

A better cruise control switch (for on/cancel etc) its currently far too stiff/fiddly on the indicator stalk. 

 

Reverse cam as standard 

 

Not sure what else.

completely forgot about the PITA stop-start . bloody ridiculous . saves bugger all fuel, destroys refinement, and a safety hazard at T-junctions

You can have most of that, and more, for twice the price, BMW X5.
