2008 Skoda Octavia Classic review from UK and Ireland
"Excellent car and value for money"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Reverse gear difficult to select. Have been back to dealer for adjustment that only lasted 2 weeks. Have to go back again, is this a common fault?
O/r passenger door adjusted and boot lid adjusted.
General comments?
I use this car for a taxi, and the m.p.g is great. I`m getting around 50m.p.g about town, and in the 60`s on a run.
I would recommend this car if you are looking for a new cheap car to run.
Comfort is OK, and use the lumber support.
