New Octavia ....when? How Much?

[MJKooLio]

What wheels are those? And what size? Wonder if they'll look better than the stock RS wheels i'm getting

Also I've seen the Octavia RS ad running on the Discovery channel and even on 9 (during 60mins apparently)

And on 7mate! Looks like Skoda has an actual ad budget

They are a NCO on the Elegance - I prefer either to the standard RS wheels myself...

Yep, saw the RS Skoda ads on the TV last night. ONe thing i noticed on the ad and also now in the pics above....what's the little rectangular shape thingy in the bottom central part of the grill (just under the number plate)? Is that the adaptive cruise control sensor?

Yup, same as on the Golf 7

Spotted the ad too. Seems we're in the target demographic...

I'm 25, what's their demo? I'm getting the RS Combi but not having a family. It'll be for all my gear, I'm a photographer. And they're sexy.

My wife who drives our Octavia saw the vrs ad last night as said "wtf since when do Skoda advertise??"

Does anyone have an idea where the reversing camera is located on the RS? I don't think it will be concealed within the Skoda emblem on the boot like the Golf. I have searched the WWW but no luck finding an image or video.

Does this look right?

Ugh... I hope it won't be noticeable that much in person!

Week 22 onwards with Tech Pack get the camera as standardo

Had an Octavia Elegance Wagon (Tech Pack, Alaris wheels, power tailgate) 132 TSI for a week now and very, very impressed. We also have a current model 2.0L TSI 147 Highline Jetta in the family (also EA888 ), and if anything the 1.8 in the Skoda is smoother and has more pep than the 2.0 in the Jetta. I can only imagine how good the RS 2.0L unit is. The 7 speed DSG in the Octavia is definitely better than the 6 speed DSG in the Jetta (less laggy, and changes up and down faster in and out of corners).

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.

Yeah, it seems the RS TSI's 0-100 is more around the 6.6 mark. Whatever to keep the GTI guys happy

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