    Good Points: Power, performance, handling, reliability, comfort, economy. HUGE boot. Excellent dealer service also, follow up calls to check to see if your happy with the car monthly for the 1st year and collect and deliver fully valeted car when getting regular service.


    Bad Points: A little noisy when cold and clutch can be a tad "snatchy" also when cold. Particle filter requires clearing a little to often but its no big sweat.


    General comments: Bought my wife a new Skoda Octavia VRS 2.0 TDi PD in january 07 and it is without a doubt the best car and best value for money car we ever owned. I own a BMW X5 3.0d sport and if the Skodas in the drive I take it very time. Exceptional build quality and comfort. Brilliantly equipped as standard, amazing performance and economy and without a doubt one of the best standard sound systems ive ever come across. Bullet proof reliability, apart from standard services has never seen the inside of the Dealers workshop (65K miles now covered).
    Hats off to Skoda, just ordered a new one which comes with the a new common rail diesel which is supposedly quiter.

    This is my third car having had a Honda Civic type-R, and the old mk1 vrs, before this new Octavia pd170 was my first performance diesel. The first time I drove one I didn't think so much of the power delivery as it seemed slow at times and quick at other times, but learning how to drive it becomes more rewarding as keeping it in the torque band is where it counts, and man does it pull! Boot it in 1st, 2nd and third and the front tires are barely holding on as the turbo spools up quite hard arou ...

    After owning two of the petrol older style Skoda Octavia VRS's I decided to venture towards the new diesel VRS basically to save money.
    Now I have a car that is new, but is cheaper to insure than my older VRS, and also cheaper to run due to being a diesel. Also the road tax is only 145 instead of 210 (and rising!).
    The car looks great (Red) and drives very well. It has an incredible turn of speed for a diesel and pulls like hell on the open road.
    I am very pleased with my choice...yet again Skod ...
