Having been in the BMW club for a while, I've decided to move over to......wait for it.....skoda!!

Budget constraints, wanting more comfort etc decided to try out a new octavia VRS diesel for a while.

Hope to be back soon but in fairness to the skoda....and having test drove one, it wasn't bad at all!!!!!

See you soon.

Is the Skoda replacing a 335i?

Fair enough, you seem to have had a few cars and lots of the same model!

New Skoda's don't appear to be that bad at all and if it had a different badge on it, I doubt anyone would tell.

How did the 335i compare to the RS4?

To be honest....I preferred the 335i to the rs4....although the rs4 noise was fantastic...but Ive turned into a major BMW fan, especially once I'd had the M5 which IMHO is just the best car I've ever owned and likely to own unless I come into a big windfall...
