Idk, who's playing in it this year?

>>14972084
It's like the VW passat, but without the VW badge tax and costs of service.
I like it. Also now it comes with the 2 liter from the leon, 4wd and a dsg. Plus, car reviews stated that it handles better than what it looks.
I will still get shit because it's only a skoda though.

>>14972165
>dsg
cancer.
is there a manuel available? VW dsgs seem to be made of plastic

There is absolutely nothing exciting about this car. It looks like just another modern shitbox, the choice of engines is either a shitty FSI/TSI or a diesel. It's a "people's car" just like Volkswagen, but even more so because it's cheaper.

I like how they add some actually useful extras though, like an ice scraper stuck to the inside of the gas cover and an umbrella in the door trim.
It's the little things that set it apart from the rest.

Doesn't come to America so I don't care.

>>14972197
Says who?

>>14972356
People who bought DSG VAGinas and got rid of them after they shat the bad a second time

>>14972084

rumour has it they're bringing back the V6 version.

This is considered a "luxury" car in the murrica

Do you think Europe is one big country? Or are you just without your carer today?

>it's literally called "right hand drive"
lmao burgers

>>14972084
I wouldn't mind one.
Big engine, 4wd, sun roof, deep black, big rims.

But sadly I currently can't even afford the parking costs in my street so I have to live carless.

>>14972424
There are leather seats. Leather or "leather" seats in any car = luxury.

It's really not my friend because it isn't utter shit thrown together with some low budget rubbish bin parts like american "luxury" cars

>>14972587

Well actually you're semi-correct.

The Skodas are thrown together with VAG parts bin parts. But Skoda manages to strain every ounce of value out of the parts, and they don't kid themselves about marketing the car.

The price the car to compete with mid sized 'sedans' but undercut most of them price wise, all the while managing to bundle together an incredible value for money package.

If VW let Skoda play around a bit more, I think VW know that they'd overtake the main brand. But already Skoda have shown they can. Just look at their recent WRC success.

>If VW let Skoda play around a bit more, I think VW know that they'd overtake the main brand.
Skoda was overtaking VW, they had to degrade the quality of Skoda as it was practically the same car, only with slightly older tech and slightly less isolation for like 75% of the price.

>>14972620
Skoda was never successful in WRC.
But yes, I remember VWs CEO getting upset at Skoda for selling their cars too cheap.

>>14972620
Aren't Skodas made from parts of the previous year or twos Volkswagen equivalent?

>>14972653
Sorta. They're put on the newest platforms, but use improved versions(?) of older parts, which ironically tends to make them more reliable than their VW counterparts.

>>14972638

Skoda literally dominated the first half of 2015's WRC2. So much so that VW have actually allocated more funding for the team next season.

>>14972666
Oh, thought you were talking about past WRC championships.

>literally same car
>at literally 2/3rds the price
No wonder Skodas are the best selling cars in Poland. They're often bought by companies which sways the nubers a little bit but it doesn't really matter.

>>14972717

The Octavia shares the Golf's platform while the Superb shares the platform with the Passat.

>>14972733
The best part is the Skodas use the LWB platforms though, so the Octavia is about as spacious as the Passat and the Superb is even more roomy.

>>14972733
It does? Well then the price isn't really that different. Superb costs 86000zł+. The cheapest Golf costs 63000 and the cheapest Jetta costs 71000.

>>14972084
Looks like it's gonna be dated as fuck in 5 years.

>>14972760
But that's still. The exact same car for less money.

It's a bit of a no brainer especially if you're buying fleet cars.

>>14972717
The octavia is pretty much a golf sedan there is no true skoda sister car of the passat since the superb is longer and competes with base executive cars (E class, 5 series, A6)

>>14972794
The Superb competes in the compact executive segment (Passat, 3 Series, C Class, A4, etc), no matter how long it is.

>>14972084
its a czech built vw golf that they are selling a little bit cheaper than a regular vw golf

You might want to get your facts straight first or not talk about things you obviously don't know shit about
