Afternoon all, 

Yet another new member with a Skoda.

After having fords for the last 18 years I decided the time had come to try something else. My Mother is on her second Fabia, both of which she loves, and let me borrow it to see how a small petrol with the dsg box felt. Her plan worked as the next day I placed an order for a second hand Octavia.

So I have a 2020 plate in race blue with the 1.5 petrol and the dsg box.

 

So far I am absolutely loving this car, the smoothness of the gear change is amazing and the car feels so light and nimble compared to the focus.

My only complaint is the stereo, sounds a bit anemic and i wish it had a cd player!

Hello Andy

Hi Andy, enjoy!

 

I’m due to pick up a 2018 SE L Octavia in the next few days, a 1.4 petrol, with the DSG box.  Brown with beige interior.  
 

It will be quite a change from a bright red 2 ltr manual diesel Volvo folding hard top Convertible....

 

(I will miss the open top motoring, but not the problems I’ve had with the car. My first and last Volvo.)
