Skoda Octavia RS245 - First Drive and Impressions
As promised, here is the first drive and initial impressions video of my Skoda Octavia RS245. Its a longish video but tried covering as much as I can about the car. Digital Cluster will be covered in a seperate video.
Hope you all enjoy it!
The cam position was a bit off so u can barely see the speedo, but it's there.. Next time I'll use two cams to make it clearer..

Nice ride. You may ask VW/Skoda to permanently shut off the Soundaktor. Then you will clearly hear the wonderful turbo spool and induction hiss.

Congratulations on your new car!!! Cool colour. How is this LSD /VAQ different than the 230s ? Any notable difference? And the steering? I find my 230s steering very vague
@PrithwiRay

adonisheadtrip I find the steering quicker and a bit heavier than the 230. quick for sure as the ratio is shorter but weight could be because of the 18inch wheels

So the 230s XDS+ is a sham, achieved only by braking one set of tyres. Similar to the Jag XE etc. So do u find any difference around the corners?

Prithwi Ray i hope the steering is communicative and ur getting good feedback. While I drive my 230, really miss my Mitsubishi’s hydraulic steering
Is the lense Smudged up or the sun flare over the windscreen creates that effect

Do a highway run other than circuit it will be amazing.

Bhanuj Chaudhary it a totally different car.. better engine, gearbox and chassis.. laura has the golden manual box. And the way we had set up that car it was a handling machine.. this will take some suspension work to get to that level.
