2002 Skoda Octavia Ambiente review from UK and Ireland
"Good value for money"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Nothing yet, but no doubt something will sooner or later.
General comments?
Good car, my second Octavia, much better build quality and dealer service than Renault.
Just one minor grumble - the car feels coarse road surfaces which seems to transmit a drumming noise through the car. Anyone else noticed this and more to the point anyone else cured it? I've driven several and they all do it. It ain't so bad that it stops me liking the car - especially the overall abilities that enable it to do everything well without being expensive to buy or run.
