2000 Skoda Octavia GLX review from Netherlands
"Is that a Lancia, a SAAB or a BMW?"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
None whatsoever.
General comments?
Extremely reliable car.
Huge boot (550 liter).
Good build quality.
The new model is not as budget-friendly as this one. I guess I would have to advise to get a secondhand one, because I see no point in buying a new one, since it is so reliable.
Fuel consumption is great. Fast car too...
Nice: people think it's a BMW, SAAB or a Lancia.
