New Octavia vRS Estate - loving it
Discussion
Swapped my aging diesel vrs estate (67 plate) for a 5 month old petrol one last week. Feels like a massive upgrade.
My old one had ZERO options (actually, one, I think, rear parking sensors). Got super lucky with the new one - found one with Canton, sunroof and Winter Plus (heated front seats, wheel and windscreen), and only avg mileage for 5 months, was 12k under the rrp price with those options.
Feels a lot pokier for it's extra 85 bhp, exhaust certainly sounds better, albeit it is a bit thirstier too (although I guess that might settle down a bit when the novelty wears off in 3-4 years!). Seeing about 33mpg at the minute v 48mpg long-term in the diesel.
Anyway, that was all.
