New Octavia ....when? How Much?

[DoggieHowser]

I wonder if I could get away with no outgoing payment if I trade in my optioned up 155TSI with a wagon with TechPack and 19 Black

I guess it would depend on which engine you want.

I ve looked, but am waiting another few months. Once all the Hoo Haa dies down over the new model the $5K discount will be back for the asking. I see it this way , I don't need a new car, but at the end of June ,dealers will need to make sales to reach targets and there will be lots of registered, undriven "demos" at good prices. Drip feeding popular models on release seems to be a marketing tool these days.

Sounds like a wise plan^^

RS of course

Had a sticky at one of these yesterday - might think about converting from the VW Tiguan next time around (unless they bring out updated model on MQB platform). Seems to be best of both worlds - VW running gear, but Skoda price (not paying premium for the name). I like some of the features/inclusions that Skoda does too (like sports seats on the RS).....

Of course RS but I meant petrol or diesel?

I think he s referring to his 155TSI Tiggy.

Yes I was

I like the bigger space of the wagon. When I got the Tiguan, I thought there'd be more room for me to move stuff around but it turned out to be smaller than I had imagined. Was quite a tight fit when I was moving back to Brisbane from Sydney with the entire Tiguan packed to the brim.

And I usually make short trips of about 10 minutes, sometimes more so I think the Diesel may not be suitable, from what I read.

And besides I always liked the GTI engine

[Tiggy1]

Yes, and only other advantage to Tig is AWD traction, but with trick diff and traction control probably not that necessary?!
Wondering if anyone knows whether the Columbus Satnav includes map updates?
Been caught before (with Subaru and Toyota) where they sting you ridiculous amount for update discs (done by Sensis)......

[OctaviaKid]

Depending on the dealer they'll include when they become available and do it during a service. Just ask them?

[Tiggy1]

Fair enough, won't be for a while yet (probably) anyway - done too much to the Tig to get rid of it too soon

Far out I want one of these badly...
White Wagon, TSI, Manual, Tech Pack, 19" black pack, Auto Tailgate..

Anyone gets this i'll buy it off them in 2-3 years... Then straight to the shop to get eibach springs, whiteline rear sway bar and stage 1 tune... I seriously cant think of any other car that can deliver all of that at the same price point, same quality, same features, same options, same drive ability, SAME SPACE and good looks... definitely one of the best cars on the market at the moment...

Apart from the 19's (I live in the country), that is what I was going to order but was concerned no one would want a manual when I went to sell it so was considering DSG...
