New Octavia ....when? How Much?

[MJKooLio]

Dealer advised me when I ordered the Tech Pack with my car. It will come with a Reversing Camera. I was like Wah? She said comes standard with Tech Pack

[Mysticality]

Wheels magazine got the same 0-100 time out of the 132TSI wagon as what Skoda quote for the RS TSI wagon, so it must be a good thing.

Thats the 7-speed.
My tuned 125TDI (170TDI? ) level pegs with a 118TSI DSG7 twincharge golf (once I stop wheel spinning in 2nd) off the traffic lights, I reckon its got to do with the extra cog/different ratios.

Have you heard this for certain (on non-RS models) ? Haven't read it anywhere ?

MJ was referring the the RS

Still a lack of colour choices!
I want the green or red!

I sent an email directly to head office to ask for more info, (as the dealers have had no idea or inclination to be of assistance), and even head office cant confirm spec info or timing!

Seriously...it is difficult to place an order for a skoda RS at the moment!

Red is available, saw a red RS this morning.

[Benmac]

Sure about that? Would be good news as it is not a listed option.

Corrida Red is available for the normal Octavia range, not the RS

[zei20t]

all I saw was red, couldn't stop to ask what the colour was called

[zei20t]

just checked the website, either the red RS I saw wasn't red at all, and im severely colour blind which is new to me, or there are a few reds floating around.

its possible its a skoda car. im 110% sure it was an RS. even had the MY15 LED DRLs in the headlight and LED tail lights and the wheels that look like the MK2 RS wheels but have more spokes.

Neither are MY15 features, LED DRLs come with xenons which come with the tech pack on the Elegance along with the rear LED lights. So it could've just been a tech pack Elegance, were the wheels stationary?

For all of you who ordered tech pack for week 22 build, I suggest you contact your dealer.

My dealer just informed me after a routine check that my car (a RS DSG petrol wagon with tech pack, black pack, leather) has been built (week 16). Unfortunately if I accept the car, it means that I miss out on the panoramic sunroof that I later added and my15 updates (flat bottom steering wheel and whatever).

He can't tell me a new estimated delivery wait if I reorder a my15 with the sunroof. Not sure which way to go.

Some My15 info is out for the UK, missing pics though which is annoying

Hmmm. No flat bottom steering wheel mentioned. Though the photos not working is a bummer too.

My dealer is still waiting for the system to be opened to place an MY15 order properly. Hence I gather nobody has one ordered yet, no build date or delivery dates can be confirmed? Or is my dealer just a bit behind on this?

good to know regarding the LED lights.

could have been an elegance with tech pack, but I don't think they are equipped with a VRS badge and front bar.

the wheels were stationary. it was stopped at lights, if I was stopped too I would have snapped a pic.

It had these wheels on it:
