New Octavia VRS

[Sgsw0skl]

Hopefully, the same DNA that exist in the VW 1.4TSi does not cause the stalling on the Octavia 1.4TSi.

 

Its specs is really yummyand I doubt many car will be able to match the build quality nor the goodies that comes with it...

I knew it man.

Poor selling brands like Skoda have to resort to mark-up prices so that loan approval is easier, and larger sums get approved.

So I don't think the $12K discount is a limited offer.

 

115K is the list price but now harvest is offering a 12K discount for 6 bids (limited offer) so VRS is at 103K for the Combi.

So COE result just release. How many Kanna their COE ?

[David325]

Eh.... HA only put in bid of 8000K plus.... i guess wait for 5 more bids and take back 5K.....

[Beanoyip]

The price is rather insane, can even buy a Scirocco at that price

[MRG]

huh? 8k coe? is a joke how to bid with 8k. now COE is 16k onli half of it. shXX i think they are not wasting our time also those SE time.

[Sgsw0skl]

So is there a price revision since the COE drop for Cat A ?

[Othello]

still got 5 tries mah .... after all its non-guaranteed

[Sabretan]

no leh...only CAT B coe drp by abt 1k. Cat A rose by abt 600.

[Sgsw0skl]

no leh...only CAT B coe drp by abt 1k. Cat A rose by abt 600.

oops .. so Cat B drop price now fpr vRS 97 K ? or wait long long ?

test drove this car, and like every bit of it.....i think its really a good car to buy. Only thing that is causing some reluctance is that I am not sure if the after sale service is good? parts difficult to get? Parts going to be expensive. and also how reliable is HA as a company, that it can continue to substain here, as I do not really see too many skoda on the road yet......

 

any present owner care to enlighten?

[Beanoyip]

Perseus - Service aside, parts are aplenty. Don't forget Skoda shares the same parts VW/Audi. Part prices are not too expensive as well.

[Fisheye]

Frankly, not much use going back to AD unless for warranty replacements... plenty of workshops outside that can do servicing for the skoda. Afterall its using the same engine as the jetta...

[Perseus76]

service aside......hmmmm..... ...that is not too encourage.....i went to HA showroom twice, and both times, pretty empty....although i think i saw a few chio bu around, not SE, but probably exec....

hahha

 

so u guys seldom goes back to HA for servicing.......

 

another qn is...does u guys do modding? aftermarket parts easy to come by? or simply just use anything available for the GTI?
