  • New 2014 Octavia Spied!

    Wow thanks for the responses. Clearly I have much reading to do on this dreadful 7 speed DSG. It's that notorious?

    • I think the 2014 Octavia RS wagon will be my next new car...

          Very tempted myself, but I'm a bit worried it'll be too big. Its going to be more the size of a Passat than a Jetta. But you are getting a lot of car and performance for something that should be priced less or the same as the Golf GTI...

          • Well bugger me.

            Went to look at the current model Octavia this arvo with the wife along with toyota, ford etc and ended up buying a Black 90TSI Special Edition Wagon. Bargain was too good to refuse.

            The new model early next year was tempting to wait for but with the options we want we'd be paying far more that I would like.

            Pick it up Thursday!

                  My Yeti was in for a service on Friday and I got a 7 speed Octy combi with only 2000km on it as a loan car. I was wondering what all the fuss was about but as soon as I pulled away at low speed I could feel the drivetrain shudder. Other than that it was a nice steer.

                    I think given the features u get in the special edition for 25990 drive away its a bargain.

                    • If anyones wondering, heres the european colours available for the RS



                      New ŠKODA Octavia RS Colors

                      The RS boasts three completely exclusive colours from the Octavia palate: the brand new metallic Steel Grey, Rallye Green and non-metallic Sprint Yellow. Or you can choose metallic, pearl-effect Black Magic, Race Blue, Brilliant Silver and Platin Grey. Non metallic options are Candy White or Corrida Red.



                      The yellow looks interesting

                        that yellow is "photoshopped".
                        the color on this one is more closer to the real thing.




                        i'm still waiting to see real pictures of a yellow one!!

                        • Its a shame (IMO) that the yellow doesn't have that gold hue. Or just be gold coloured instead. Looks great (IMO)!

                          • Yeah a metallic gold ala the Clio RS would be cool.

                            I'm liking the flat, moondusty grey that they showed the wagon in at Goodward. I think it's the steel grey or platin grey?

                              We had a gold Toyota Avensis Verso once. It looked like metallic baby poo.

                                Gosh who woulda thought getting insurance would be such a pain. Quotes varying from 1000 to 1900. So hard to compare them all.

                                Also do u guys insure to an agreed amount at what u paid for the car exactly or for what it would cost to replace it with a new car assuming a new model has come out and is not on sale...?
