my dad has had one of every octavia VRS at some point (worked at main dealer so had various high turn over company cars)
the version you're looking at is much better than it's predecessor - i borrowed that one a few times and it was probably one of the least comfortable cars i've been in (tdi) but the 5E 3rd gen was much better especially as it was the 230ps petrol

Anyone have any experience with ~2013 Skoda Octavia vrs estates? We had a mk1 which was a lot of fun, and the Volvo has very nearly got to the point where the trim has all fallen off and needs ripping out and roll caging. Some mentalist I know spent more money making his 850 showroom than a new one would cost, but I'm not that flush. Anyway, Octavia looks like a nice mix of sensible and shouty, and can't find large numbers of people moaning about anything specific online.
