    Solid stuff by Skoda for a car at this price. Leather seats, park assist etc etc. Insanely good.

    Skoda cars may be a bit pricey but IMHO, they are highly underrated. Given the features and value for money, they can give any other car in respective category a run for their money.

    design - the lines are awesomely sharp yet understated. price is slightly sour true but to bring back the game pricing has to be sweet to re live the first generation octavia launched in India. which nither latter models failed to generate. Also the after sales and service of skoda and vw doing the rounds... atlest the 1.5 litre oetrol should be little kick down some fancy gig to play fair with the competition and pricing
