Octavia vRS 245 lease thread
Discussion
Had a few minor issues with mine, such as a weird rumbling sound from the left speaker on sport mode, and some loose trim.
The trim they sorted, rumbling noise they couldnt find, so i just changed the setting on individual to match, and reduced the background sound thing - seems to have fixed it.
2500 miles in, and im quite liking the car - more than i thought i would! I have kerbed 3 wheels though as the silver bit sticks out just enough to grind the kerb....

Quite on here..... guessing everyone is now enjoying their motors ? Anyone had any issues ? Not had any myself really, only one of dials seems to change now and again when you have the sport info on. Does my head in !!
My diesel vrs estate (12 months old) does that too - changes from showing speed to either one position up on down on the driving data menu, especially when the engine restarts from stop/start. It's as if I've caught the right hand roller by mistake (I haven't).Annoys the living st out of me for about 3 seconds, then I forget it happened.
I have the PSI, oil temp and water temp dials on, on the sports info and it's always the PSI one that seems to change on its own now and again.... Annoying ! I've noticed the fog lights coming on when turning corners but hard to tell if the headlights are moving... I'm 6k mileage in and loving it.

Hi all,
Has anyone ordered recently. Im trying to decide between Personal Lease and PCP. Can anyone give me an idea what deals they got and where from? Im looking at preferable 3+24 but open to 3+36.
Cheers

I think you'll struggle getting cheap deals on these now, not seen any since these back in Sept-Nov.
Wouldn't bother with PCP personally unless you have loads a wonga !!
Love the motor though !!

Slide thread revival, but I've just seen my car is due for its first year service soon (it arrived early February last year). Has anyone had any quotes for their first service yet?
First service on variable (mine was 18.5k) cost me £249 from Skoda Harlow, though mine is the diesel DSG. Beefmeister said:

I've tried the Skoda site and the cost quoted from my nearest dealer (Citygate) was £179. That's for a petrol DSG.

^^^ That's what I'm not sure about as my car is saying first oil service due in 8,100 miles or 89 days. That'd take it to c. 14 months after it arrived new at my house.
How many miles would that have covered then adding on 8k ? Mines covered nearly 10k now and 12months isn't till April !dayc666 said:
