Skoda Octavia RS Review

“I work as a driving instructor for the fire service....”

Good Points
I work as a driving instructor for the fire service. We tested BMW, Vauxhall, Ford and Skoda.... The Skoda out performed all the others, especially in the handling and ergonomics side of things. It has great build quality and I didn't feel that I needed to blush either just because it was a Skoda.

Bad Points
Don't expect the ride of a Limo, but this car was never designed to be a Limo.
Nick-named the "Skippy Skoda" by us in the Driver Training Department (but it just adds extra excitement to a car that is so well balanced). This is not a bad point, unless you belong to the flat cap brigade...
