Welcome to the new look VWWatercooled

After much work and little sleep there is a new version of the forums running on more powerful and recent hardware as well as an upgraded software platform.

Things are mostly the same, but some things are a little different. We will be learning together, so please post questions (and answers if you've worked things out) in the help thread.

The new forum software is an upgraded version of what came before, it's mostly the same but also a little different. Hopefully easier to use and more stable than before. We are learning together here, so please be patient. If you have questions, please post them here. If you have worked something out and can provide an answer,

    If that will be the new front, I'm sorry but I hate it with a passion. But looking at the photo, it still has quite a bit of taping on it so hopefully they'll come up with something nicer then this

        New Octavia Driven!

        I understand there's a need to keep a family resemblance but this Skoda front end looks positively last millennium

        The back end looks even more dated.

        Can't they add a bit more flair to it?

          I agree, this looks so much like the earlier generation....not very progressive.

          As the comment in the back of the topgear magazine says about skoda..."sooo 1990's in design"

              At a glance the back end is very similar to the not so new C180, and C200 Mercs.

              Hard to tell, but the sunroof looks squarer at the corners and perhaps a little wider. An optional panoramic roof on the new Octy
              perhaps?
