This is the official description of the Skoda Octavia RS. The reality is somewhat different. A car is both good and bad sides.
Let's start with the bad:
Skoda Octavia RS is absolutely not intended for our roads and winter conditions. Very low suspension. When I bought it the car I couldn't get clear answer about her клиренсе. I was assured that no less than 130 and even 136 mm. In fact, in the lowest part of the distance to the ground 124 mm. In the summer of normal, but in the winter when it's snowing have to drive very carefully, especially Park.
Skoda Octavia RS is not intended for our cold weather. Very slow warming up of the engine, heated seats, mirrors, and rear window. Really cold.
Skoda Octavia RS is somewhat inconvenient sports seats. For the sport and not a long drive they are ideal. But on a long distance is hard.
Skoda Octavia RS has a weak sound insulation, particularly annoying audible noise from the runoff of rubber. When I opened the machine, I realized that the noise is virtually absent. Hereinafter applied active noise reduction system. This is when placed in the most noisy points housing microphones and filed an inverted signal received in the dynamics of the machine. Silence! Kaif!
Skoda Octavia RS is the radio "Bolero" in the basic configuration. The sound quality is average.
Skoda Octavia RS has a bad эргономикой. levers on the steering wheel a few short, which creates certain inconveniences. No thought control buttons. A lot of functionality, but inconvenient control the climate control and audio system. The function of heating of mirrors, and rear window are two different buttons, there is no automatic dimming rearview mirror (back button). The steering wheel is convenient for the sport, not comfortable for normal driving (form and too sharp).
Skoda Octavia RS has a powerful brakes, but for comfortable riding it had to accommodate.
Skoda Octavia RS through the rear споллера has a bad review. In combination with a rapid set of speed and slowly working back парктронниками high probability in someone bump.
Skoda Octavia RS is the finishing of front and rear pillars in the cabin panels overlap. An interesting option, but I think this is the last century.
Skoda Octavia RS uses no gasoline 8-9 L. and all of 10-12 liters per 100 km., Yes even in the bargain eats oil, litre per 10,000 km.
The Skoda Octavia RS dirty engine, but pave the seal bonnet of the Russian classics and purity.
Skoda Octavia RS on the ice in a turn is not very stable, ass records.
There is no sensor windscreen washer reservoir. Liquid ends unexpectedly!!! "Pleasant" surprise.
Good side:
A damn good acceleration. Adrenaline is guaranteed.
powerful brakes.
Amazing suspension. When he took the car was afraid that she would fall hard. Suspension elastic, great is "lying policemen", tram ways, etc.
Good materials interior, all qualitatively. There is no "bugs". The material of the seat without comments.
Excellent automatic locking of the front suspension. To dream away with the second speed.
I liked the 6 stage robot machine, quick switching. (although everyone scolds)
A large salon and a huge trunk. Nice!
In my opinion the machine all the same for those who love to drive, to whom the adrenaline. But at the same time is not a very bad family car.
In comparison with the Toyota Camry and Honda accord Skoda Octavia RS faster and more comfortable. Yes, and after the noise quieter. Service its cheaper. The engine is more modern, more powerful, and eat less.
