If you are sad enough to read the Telegraph , and I am , well at least for a whole year at

Complaints:

1) No clock on the dash. Eh? :confused:

2) Fuel consumption at illegal speeds. Fair enough.

3) Front passenger seat doesn't go back far enough. Really? With no-one in the back, I think Octy seats are fine.

Did you see the airborne Rally Felicia about two pages before!

But what will you buy next ? The new Octavia mimicks the Volvo V40 and thus the forthcoming V50 estate ' date=' which will have not only the Focus chassis and a TDCi engine but the Haldex 4*4 clutch system .....so I am very undecided at present .

I'm keeping an eye out for the S40 T5 AWD that is coming out this summer, but why should I even be looking? By then, the 4x4 will only be just over a year old. But maybe, just maybe it's a viable alternative for 2006/'07 or so.
