2000 Skoda Octavia Elegance review from UK and Ireland
"Practical performance"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Sunroof rattles
Front tyre wear quicker than expected
Paint finish badly affected by bird droppings.
General comments?
Car is quick for the money, but suspension could be stiffer to improve cornering.
Body stiffness could be improved to reduce assorted creaks form doors due to flexing.
Overall package excellent value for money.
