2017 Skoda Octavia vRS 2.0 TDi
Summary:
Fun car, love it
Faults:
So far nothing. Does like oil, done seven thousand miles and had to give it a little top up. Been advised this is normal for the 2.0 TDi in the vRS.
General Comments:
Octavia vRS is a great car to drive. Fast and can be economical.
Sports seats hug you as you drive. Suspension setup is great, handling is very good.
Acceleration is amazing. Or you can take it easy and return 45 - 50 mpg or more.
The standard Octavia is popular as a taxi, but the vRS is a very different beast for just a bit of extra cash. Well worth it.
Would you buy another car from this manufacturer? Yes

I'd get the gear change and the cutting out looked at while it's still under warranty. Unacceptable on a 2017 car. Myself I have a 2003 Octavia used as a taxi, and it is a dull but very reliable car with no major problems.
