Thought I’d chuck up a hello here, bought my 2016 Red VRS 230 a month ago, I’ve come from Golf R ownership and needed to practicality! Love the car so far. 
 

This month it’s had resonator delete, H&R springs along with 20mm rear and 15mm front spacers. 
 

 

how does it compare to the golf R?

 

Obvs not as posh inside or quality materials and presumably less grip?

hmm interesting I've been n both and honestly I prefer the Octavia inside  although there's not a lot in it

 

anyway - really nice car spacers and drop look spot on!

Obviously off the line I’ve got to get used to being careful how I put the power down in the lower gears, but I only get my toe down when the mood takes me so it’s not a massive issue, I really like how the Octavia drives. 
 

as Gissin said, the interior feels just as well put together as the golf, obviously not as well specced material wise but not as different as I thought it was going to be!

Thanks, I saw a couple of the Octavias on this forum with the same set up and I’m really chuffed with it!
