180kw and 370Nm propels this car from 0-100kmh in 6,6 seconds. It has all the safety kit you could want, a cool, but practical interior and an awsome exterior.

Great no nonsense review and had all the specs and details. Plenty of features displayed and informed you what is true,, navigation is not worth the extra money since I use my Apple phone plugged in to my 2.0 liter Octavia, works perfectly well. I am upgrading to VRS end of June after viewing many reviews like this. Thank You For The Review!

Thanks for the video. I've just ordered the vRS245 black pack. The only options I I specified are the black paint and the adaptive cruise.

@dimsoneill 2 года назад

The full-length sunroof is awesome as well.

@Basih 6 лет назад

This thing needs AWD and a set of new rims.

@dimsoneill 2 года назад

AWD yes, the rims in person are stellar.

@dimsoneill 2 года назад

Got this car and colour, but the wagon version. I love it! I have the last update before the 4th gen, with virtual cockpit and updated infotainment. The best version IMHO. Same trick diff as the Golf GTi PERFORMANCE, not the standard GTi.

@dateacha77 5 лет назад

No such thing as an electric boot in the sedan version I'm afraid, only the station wagon has that option.

@Mso94 6 лет назад

As usual, very good video! What do you think about the dsg? Is it better than the manual?

@SilverhillDrives 6 лет назад

For this car - jes, DSG all the way. It just makes sense for a car like this. For a GTI maybe i would go for the manual. If you want your RS to have any residual value at the end of ownership, DSG is the way to go. Manuals drop ther price like crasy.

@dimsoneill 2 года назад

Go the DSG 7-speed, it's pretty awesome.

@TwoCho 3 года назад

Is the DSG7 reliable?

@dimsoneill 2 года назад

Yep.

@johnnyst.4372 6 лет назад

2 questions. What about the real fuel consumption and also the 4x4 how much back and forward divide the traction in this new model ?? Thanks

@dimsoneill 2 года назад

It's FWD and real-world I'm averaging around 8 L/100km.

@zdenekjacques1063 6 лет назад

Nice color.....nice car;-)

@smokezz9 6 лет назад

Mate, 2 questions - what is the name of the color on this car(steel grey or brilliant grey metalic). How does the difference feel between comport and sport mode on DCC suspension?

@SilverhillDrives 6 лет назад

The colour is Steel grey and yes, it would be my pick of the bunch :) The difference for the suspension is there, but not that noticeable really... can't say it was an uncomfortable car in any way at any setting, the steering feel gets harder in Sport and that you notice more in my opinion.

@smokezz9 6 лет назад

Thanks for reply. This is a demo car or you own it?

@h6be99 6 лет назад

This was a demo car from Skoda Tallinn

@dimsoneill 2 года назад

The colour is Meteor Grey, looks awesome in the metal, doesn't come across as well on video. I brought the wagon version of this car, and it's brilliant.

@TheWorldPC 6 лет назад

Hello man! Love your videos. Is it possible to get a Golf MK5 1.9 or 2.0 tdi to the test? I'm interested in buying one and I'm looking for information. Thanks!

@SilverhillDrives 6 лет назад

Thanks a lot for the kind words! Will do my best to get my hands on one of them :)

@euroovca25 6 лет назад

RS comes with amundsen as standard so there is no way to exclude the navigation and save money... just cant do that

@misterivan75 6 лет назад

My friend,fuel consumption?

@SilverhillDrives 6 лет назад

Well, it was around 10 l/100km for me - but i drove it enthusiastically most of the time i had it, so definetaly could get a better resoult.

@Whooza89 6 лет назад

I´m driving my 245 with avg. 10.5 - 11 since 3 months.

@dimsoneill 2 года назад

around 8.2L/100kms real world if you don't fang around in it. But that is hard in this car 'cause it is so fun to drive fast.

@mladentkalcevic 6 лет назад

How is the road noise? I see lot of complaints on forums about insulation savings...

@SilverhillDrives 6 лет назад

Not that bad actually - not a new german saloon of cource, but i'd say comparable to a 2005-2010 BMW 3 series or A4 ect.

@dimsoneill 2 года назад

Can't hear it with the Caton 13 speaker stereo cranking or with sport mode turned on. Love this car.

@NathanElcoate 5 лет назад

What more do you need? AWD.

@dimsoneill 2 года назад

Try the FWD, it's mad fun with that trick diff. Pulls you around and out of corners, brilliant. Good enough for the GTi performance, good enough for you!

@NathanElcoate 2 года назад

@@dimsoneill Lol yes that's true but still prefer my WRX AWD.

@UFA-jc8gu 5 лет назад

This needs the GOLF R engine , better wheels and 4 x 4 ..... just like the Superb Sportline

@pregardt 5 лет назад

I believe it has the same engine. The golf R has a different tune and a much bigger turbo

@misterivan75 6 лет назад

Is that gearbox have 7 speed?

@SilverhillDrives 6 лет назад

Actually no, 7 speed in the 245 :)

@SilverhillDrives 6 лет назад

Yes!

@vishnucountrywideperforman7980 6 лет назад

No! 6 speed!

@SilverhillDrives 6 лет назад

The regular RS has a 6 speed DSG, but the RS 245 has the new 7 speed DSG

@SilverhillDrives 6 лет назад

The VAG 2.0 turbo can handle a lot! If only it had 4wd..

@krunalpatel4829 4 года назад

@urosvranic4930 6 лет назад

Is it too stiff with 19inch tyres?

@SilverhillDrives 6 лет назад

The regular RS i drove had 18-s, i really could not tell the difference. The RS is not too stiff for my liking in any alloy size - like the 19s, get them!

@dimsoneill 2 года назад

The 19s with ACC means you get the best of both worlds. Comfort mode with the 19s is plush.

The sound is a sound generator behind the dash. I.e. fake

@ocb2011 6 лет назад

I have this car on my shortlist. with the Kia optima Gt as contender for my new car. thing i really dislike about the Skoda is the wheels and plastic interior. i find the rims so horrible, so that alone is 1000 euro minimum extra for decent rims. You get cooling in the seats in Optima, Cooled glove department in the skoda, more safety features in the optima( also included without extra costs like in the skoda), But slightly higher fuel economy and price. The optima has better crash scores, bigger boot, better guarantee ( 7 years or 150.000 km) Skoda has more power, easier to tune due to being a golf gti engine. I'm still unsure, i Know in 2020 the new Version of Skoda Octavia comes. i might hold off 2 years, Dunno.

@dimsoneill 2 года назад

I have driven both and I brought the Skoda. Hands down a better car all around. Drive both and you will see what I mean. The Interior in the Kia was not up to standard, cheap-looking and boring.

@korgond 6 лет назад

Dashboard design is dull

@SilverhillDrives 6 лет назад

Better than the Cupra for me

@solefreak2 5 лет назад

@@SilverhillDrives Defo looks better than any Seat interior especially with the new virtual cockpit

@dimsoneill 2 года назад

Actually, it is really really good, virtual cockpit great, infotainment great, good quality finishing and the seats are awesome in Alcantara and leather. Electronically heated massage seats too.
