Octavia - Great drive.
Octavia is used for a mix of suburban & highway driving.
This car is used most days of the week.
Servicing is yearly.
We usually cover approximately 12000Km per year.
The only issue has been the original 12V battery. 3 calls to Skoda Assist over 3 years -car in garage at home each time- battery replaced at 3 years.
Otherwise absolutely no issues. The engine DSG combination is brilliant. A very sweet drive with brisk acceleration.
Ignore the motoring writers who complain about DSG Transmissions. Occasionally you do get a minor edging backwards after backing out of garage & then engaging forward (Drive) -less than most drivers would experience with a manual car.

Overall - A Good Performer and a Nice Wagon
I bought this wagon in June 2015. It's a wagon with elegant look and presentation.
This car won't let you down. It performs best especially at curves and corners even when fully loaded. It gives you smooth ride and suspension is good. Economically, it beats my other 2014 Toyota Prius V i-Tech Hybrid. It gives me 670km/50L - even more when driving long on long stretch highway (e.g., Pacific Motorway F3 Freeway). Plenty of space inside, and you'll fit a lot of stuff in the boot - great for big shoppers! The audio sound that came with the Manuf...Read more
acturer's Extra Pack is superb - a lot of friends hearing it says it's crystal clear and surround is excellent. Finally, I really like the "pull" of this car - as it gives me the fast but smooth acceleration when you need it. It doesn't feel like it's only a 103kW due to its turbo 1.4L engine. There's only two things that is now worrying me. (1) I started to feel some sort of shuddering on the left side of the front wheel when running at 100kph (yes, I'm a regular user of M7 Motorway on the way to work in the morning). (2) I started to hear slippage/squeaking when accelerating (from full stop), more apparently when AC is on. I suspect this must be coming from clutch. Even my passenger could notice the sound, so I'd suspect that it would be more audible from the outside. Car is only turning 2 years of age by June - with extended warranty (total of 5 years) so I'd see what's the dealer's plan when I submit it for thorough inspection. I would definitely not wait till the warranty expires before they would fix it.Similar opinion? Write a review on ieatwords.com.au!
