Just tick them off as you go -
* Buy a x year old BMW/Mercedes/Audi instead
* Wouldn't be seen dead in a Skoda
* Poor man's VW
* Buy a banger for £300 instead
Good luck guys!

I have an Octavia vRS. I wouldn't call it ugly. Nice car, I would certainly buy another.

Not your superb spelling ability. That's stays in the bank.
Five years in an Octavia?
Your mind.
Paying tax is a good thing?
It is the same price as if you were to pay no VAT on the original price, so not really that misleading. It's 20% off - that's what matters. I don't think anyone really believes that Skoda have struck a deal with the Inland Revenue to not pay tax on selected cars.
Because the finance earns them more money? Pretty straightforward really.
fell????
Now who feels like a c........??
Now that I've bought it to your attention can you please fix your floored grandmar.
Since then I've gone on to own 3 170bhp diesel Audi A4 S-line's from new. All have suffered with DPF issues. All have suffered with known steering rack problems and all have suffered with clouding on the steel trim. Build quality is horrendous, interior plastics on the B8 are cheap. Way cheaper looking than the equivilent Skoda. At the moment the entire Audi range is trading on it's exterior looks and flashy headlights. Once you get past that, you quickly realise that there really isn't that much between the brands.
I received great service from both dealers. but - My next car will be a Petrol powered Skoda from the vRS family. They are just better cars to drive and a hell of a lot cheaper to own.
Great / HOT Deal. Screw badge snobbery, The vRS is a quality bit of kit.

Hey Oxon - have you driven the Octavia much? I love my VRS the best car in its price range.
The finance I would gues is more around loyalty.
Brutal, but it made me smile
absolutly, and a touch screen to navigate it... Very good speakers in my Elegance model as well, makes the rear view shake when turned up ;-)

It's not 20% off. It's Skoda paying 20% of the cost of the car in VAT before the 20% was added on. Therefore, the £13885 is equal to 120% (100% car cost + 20% VAT). You Pay 100%, Skoda pay 20%.
The £13885 cheapest model is made up of car at £12685 with Delivery, DVLA First Registration Fee and 12 Months Road Fund at £700.
Therefore, the cheapest you can get it would be 12685/120x100=£10570.83, add the £700 extras = 11270.83. Take it on finance and get £500 off = 10770.83.
That's basic O-Level Maths.
VW aren't as great as everyone thinks.
You're comparing a Peugeot 205 and an Octavia as like-for-like?! Sure the 205 will be faster, it's a sardine tin on wheels with an engine.
Was this you as a child?

Nope. Been in my last one for over 6 years and still loving it (1.8T 4x4 chipped to over 200BHP)

You drive a DUSTER?
I get lower price to be honest
cheapest model £13885
- 20% (2777)
- £500
= £10,608
Downside people may have a hang up about the badge, but if you overlook that a top car.
Yes - hotter than a Nexus7!!1
I did 155k miles in 6 years in two octavias and would happily buy another Skoda.
The Mk2 Octavia is a relatively old design now though. I believe the first ones were sold on 54 plates with a face lift about 3 years ago, plus a lot of the engines are much more modern now.
The Mk3 is likely to arrive early next year or the end of this one, hence the very good discounts.

Agreed - Audi/Merc/BMW drivers* on here remind me of hooligans at football matches. they shout and brawl to get their point across without realizing how stupid and arrogant it makes them look.
I do like Octavias, my uncle had 5 as company cars and they were all nice cars. My preference is Ford/Vauxhall though, but this is my personal choice.
* = does not apply to EVERY driver, just quite a few
You do realise if you order the Elegance it can be put on 0% fiance for 2yrs with 50% deposit (0% offer is still on to end of Sept 2012 too). If you have a reasonable old car to trade in its a bargain.
Elegance has touch screen radio 6 disc/SD card, Cruise, Reversing sensors, under seat storage, cargo nets, Leather pack, 16" wheels, nicely spec'd. For a meer £14,165 (including spare wheel, road tax, registration fee, some fuel and free mats) new. Now if they want to give you £500 off that and £300s worth of servicing. Bite their arm off.
