Pre-ordering facelift Octavia RS 169TSI

[golfage]

Thanks fellas.

Got a quote back today from a dealer and got a 6% discount which is decent imo given it's new and the other dealers came back with firm pricing with max of 1k discount. Shall finalise a few items & get the deposit paid up tomorrow. Dealer has no ready stock for a SG unit though so likely that I gotta wait a few weeks which is fine.

Nice one!

What specs did you end up going with?

Fully-optioned. Been looking out since pre-facelift days.

Thats pretty lucky really, stock is rare. It's actually a big pain really I found to wait for an order as well, because promos keep coming and going and you don't have a firm idea. Let alone be able to think about trading in a car etc. If they can get that sorted then sales would soar but production needs to realistically be doubled in CZ and they had only just built a new factory when I got my first in 2008. There was talk of sending partially assembled cars to a closer asian country to cope with our demand and possible US expansion, but I'd much prefer mine to be Cz made.

Swapped mine to QG as well from SG after seeing some real life photos. Should arrive in 2 weeks. Can't wait!

Whats the Active Chassis Control like on the VRS with Tech pack? Can you notice the difference?

I also have a question, is the auto tailgate worth it?

Normal vs Comfort not really but Sport vs Comfort then yes. Been on Comfort on Sydney's roads so far and it's brilliant.

Yes definitely worth it. Coming from a sedan with a manual boot can definitely feel the difference. Opening/closing time is not as slow/bad as some of the SUVs I came across too.

Gonna get a OBDeleven soon to code so that remote closing.

+1 on the auto tailgate.. best $500 ever spent!

Especially if you have kids, lug alot of gear etc!
