Do you have any memories of the Skoda Octavia? Let us know in the comments below!

@sudheernazimudeen7041 2 жыл бұрын

My uncle used to work in skoda and he used to bring home their demo car, an yellow octavia vrs. I got to experience the performance in it as a passenger and it was simply mind boggling. In my opinion the turbo lag was a boon, because once the turbo spooled up you are kicked back into the seat as it took off like a freight train. The power delivery simply had a unique character. It is still my dream to get my hands on one.

The instrument cluster of the Octavia is kind of a portal to a myriad of emotions . It makes u smile with the speedometer, can surprise you with the fuel economy readings in the MID. And then, it can downright scare you ,when some component or the other acts up & the warning lights light up the cluster like a Christmas tree 😁 the car really is an emotional roller coaster, but boy it does have a soul!

Octavias have always been my dream car, from the MK1 1.9 TDI which had performance without compromise on efficiency and vRS is altogether in a different league. Even the MK4 which is the cheapest way to get the amazing 2.0 TSI making it a poor man's Audi, but not in terms of Features, means real features that are useful, like a liftback tailgate, and plenty of Simply Clever features make it a perfect car and the last standing D segment sedan. Kudos to Evo India for this great Gone But Not Forgotten series!

We brought ours in 2018,A base line mk3.5 1.4 TSI with a manual gearbox,without a doubt the most underrated car ever to come to india and it was sad that car never really got any exposure,despite being a base model,its packs enough equipment to make it a great daily driver, and 1.4 tsi with that manual is a gem of an engine,you really won't miss 1.8 unless you plan to do really silly speeds,its more then adequate and crazy on efficiencey with me clocking even more then 21km/L on few occasions and 11-12 being the worsr figures in bumper to bumper traffic,supremly refined and amazing to drive,sure today there are so called suvs and even the new slavia and vitrus with a similar powered engine,but the class of the octavia remains unmatched for me,whenver i sit inside the quality,the comfort,the performance,it just makes me happy that we brought this car for us,in today's world people are getting more and more seduced by features like sunroof,air purifier,etc,cars aren't smartphones or gadgets,they are meant to be driven,they are supposed to ensure you and your passengers safety,they are supposed make you feel relaxed in heavy traffic with refinement and smoothness,and comfort you enough to push on through demanding indian roads and at times watch your back when u decide to push hard,to get back in control when you do findyouself out of,all these things is what an octavia does brilliantly,for that reason i really don't have to care about anything else and i consider myself lucky to have gotten the octavia expirence at a decent price.Sure the new mk4 is a tad expensive but just becaude it has few features missing doesn't mean its a car that you will pass on,own one and you will understand why anyone that brought one of these whether from mk1 to mk3 to RS,couldn't go back to anyone else.Its simply clever,a simply brilliant sedan.

The VW group did not give 4wd Haldex system of the Golf GT to a Skoda cars, imagine a Skoda RS with 245hp getting a 4wd and how awesome it would be Common VW group you can give pricey luxury cars a tuff competition and you could really get very good volumes

@avinashclt 2 жыл бұрын

VAG provided haldex 4wd in Skoda always with a lower output than the VW/Skoda equivalent model. Quite a conscious decision I imagine. Octavia/Yeti/Superb got haldex awd only with 1.8 TSI and never with 2.0TSI (except recently since 1.8tsi has been discontinued and low spec 190PS 2.0TSI was introduced). When the Superb got the 3.6VR6 is haldex AWD, again the engine output was 260PS whereas the Passat/CC had 300PS variants.

I still remember, we couldn't afford an Octavia, but my Grandfather called one for a test drive nonetheless. A shiny red Octavia. Low seating, that boot opening along with the glass. It was all something else. We needed up buying a Ford Fusion on loan instead. But I always wondered, had we bought that Octavia, it would've been to treat to own it when I grew up. Unfortunately we can't keep diesel cars over 10 years in Delhi. So many cars going to waste.

Octavia vRS 230 was the best sport sedan, we could ever get. Hated to see this car didn’t sell as much. But I wanna let @ŠKODAIndia know, we would be desperately waiting for rebirth of vrs230 5 years later. No luxury amping up needed like the 245, just pure adrenaline kicks.

My doubt is can we mod the car like add a new turbo and is it legal in our country?

I know I am going to get a lot of heat for this but between VW and Skoda, I prefer Skoda!! VW is absolute favorite of mine but Skoda, boy o boy!! Their cars just feel different. My first exposure was the Rapid and what a car that was. Skoda cars are meant to have fun while driving. Kodiaq is still my dream car and I would buy it any day over Compass, Meridian or any other car in that range. I am happy Skoda is finally doing good and people are looking nowadays for more safe and fun cars rather than the ones with gimmicky features.

Skoda does offer great value, relatively speaking!

16:28 you said it wrong sirish the 2.0 tsi on new octavia and rs is not the same the rs230and245 came with EA888gen3a engine and new octavia Audi A6 superb Passat kodiaq,tiguan are all come with EA888gen3b engine,eventhough both are from EA888 family they are poles apart.the gen3b has higher compression than gen3a which means gen3a is more tuner friendly...I know sirish is an OG may he just forgot the fact ..

@sirishch 2 жыл бұрын

It’s true the Gen 4 has the 3B engine & I’m aware of the upgrades having driven many cars with it. I was generalizing in context of the video. Problem is if we get into the all details the video becomes hours long 🫣
