2007 Skoda Octavia 4x4 review from UK and Ireland
"Stealth SUV and bargain of the year"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Slight hiccup with the wing mirrors wiring noticed when picking up the car from the dealer, and instantly rectified.
General comments?
Beware stealth SUV...
Sat in traffic with the faux by faux bimbo's in their Discoverys, you can feel the malevolence of the more ecologically tuned motorist (go figure!!!) directing heat ray intensity glares at the aforementioned SUV drivers. So far I have yet to have the need of a medical burns unit as I had with my old scooby.
Returns 45mpg if you're diligent with your right foot and cruise control, and has generally a decent cabin in which to while away the hours of motoring.
Superb value for money in comparison with the competitions offering.
