According to the brochure there is a storage box under the passenger seat. I must admit that i didn't look for one when I had a peek at the RS.2012 MY11 Cappuccino Superb Elegance, TDI. (Gone)

On the heated seats topic, we loved them in our RS. They warmed up much faster than the heating system, and my wife also like the heated seat even on warmer days to help ease pain in her shoulder.
I've warned her that the next car might not have it, and she's not happy. Luckily, she loved the old Octavia nearly as much as I did so (fingers crossed) it's not a deal breaker.MY15 Octavia Scout TDI135 Moon White Tech Pack Panoramic Sunroof Polar wheels

We picked up our manual Ambition wagon last week after an agonising six month wait. Pretty happy with it. Took it for a run down to a mates farm yesterday and got 4.8l/100 round trip. The car is stupendously good value.
A few anomolies though - there seems to have been a stop/start button installed at the factory. It does nothing of course, it's just odd. Sort of makes you question the QC at the factory.
Rage moment: Plug in my iPhone 5 to the USB and it doesn't charge like the old MDI setup did, let alone connect. **** me dead VAG just cannot design a media system to save themselves. Most popular car manufacturer in the world designs a system that can't talk to the most popular mobile OS.
High point: Buying from the Newcastle dealer - great experience. The passion they display is rare.

It should still charge your phone though, you might need to tell the phone to trust it.MY16 Octavia RS 162 Race Blue Combi

Comparing what you can get on the Octavia vs the Golf range, the Golf is more pov than the Octavia.
What is happening with the heated seats is VWA's current trend of heavily reducing stock complexity and thus, choice. The MY15 changes for the Aus-spec Golf removed options instead of adding them!MY16 Octavia RS 162 Race Blue Combi
