SKODA OCTAVIA VRS 245 DSG REVIEW | Better than a Golf GTI? | Bargain Golf R or Audi S4 | 

I have the same car In Silver and too forgot that they don’t get any golf r/gti attention from police they ignore them as they use them, you also get people slowing down and moving out your way

Great review, like your style and manner. Just bought a 2017 vrs estate with 19' rims, not a 245, and love it so far. Cracking car that offers so much bang for the buck, ticks most of the boxes and looks great in quartz grey.

much bigger, much cooler, much more reliable (idk how Skoda does it as they share parts with VAG) still fast, not as sharp a steering response but still fun..... it's just win win win in my opinion

Great review mate! I’ve been looking at these for a while, really good information in this 👍

I own a 2018, petrol manual 245 challenge edition with 35,000 miles which comes with all the addons. Reverse camera, heated seats, upgraded 19 extreme alloys, black details all round and red paint. We have a large dog and a child and I can honestly say I think we will just run it until it packs in and can't drive anymore. Perfect balance of practicality/space/power will struggle to find a better spec'd car for the price.

I have a VRS 230 (pre-facelift, so it has the extra equipment like LSD, new sports exhaust, electric folding mirrors etc.); I personally much prefer the look of the hatch version but am sure if you need the space, the estate is welcomed! The 2.0L TSI with the manual gear box is great, too. Short gears with a nicely weighted clutch...this engine is very strong, it surprised me to be fair! Great review!

Crackin review Joe, I too Love Skodas and considering the vrs hatch in Race Blue

Thanks the video helped my decision I bought last week a 2019 VRS 245 Manual Estate to replace a 2014 C Class Estate as my dog outgrew it! I can forgive the lower spec as it is so engaging and involving to drive. I like the understated looks and it's not trying to be something it's not.

this just became my favourite car

Love the car! hope i can buy it someday, well for now i'm with Skoda rapid 2016 :) will have to wait for few more years :d

Im looking to get me one of these in manual this year hopefully :)

I have the 2019 Skoda Octavia VRS sedan with virtual cockpit. However for Singapore market, there are NO sunroof, rear two usb ports, Dynamic Chassis Control, Adaptive Cruise Control and rear wiper options. I love the car though. An all-rounder.

I have the 2019 MY20 version which has the digital instrument cluster instead of the analogue dials.

Dude, you should be an auto journalist, i think you got potential.

Skoda Octavia that I bought would fit many sheets of 6x4 plaster board with seats down

Maaaate, not even the leather seats. Also you can get a panoramic sunroof as an option, I've got one. It is massive, so nice.

Their other wheel design is nicer, this one is a bit weird. I like the 19's. Love the car though. The 2021 and 2022 versions looks so much like an Audi. New front end design and headlights.

optional extra i thought with the dials

heated seats, heated wheel, and mostly important...applecar play..... Prefers digital dials instead of analog....your priorities in a car are the opposite to mine. First time it happens to me in a car review

Is this a 2017,18 or 19 Skoda Octavia VRS?

Don't discount the hatch model, the boot is still massive, it's a bit cheaper and unless you have a dog or need the estate space you won't be disappointed.

Need friends with Porsche’s to review ☺️

This is the 230hp car front sensor is Matt black and the 245 is gloss black🫣

Cupra estate looks alot better

Stop watching when he forgot the car 👎
