    Skoda Reviews and Road Tests

    Test of Octavia RS Wagon 2.0TFSI (they liked it a lot) and also an Octavia Elegance 2.0FSI with lots of extras (they didn't like it at all).

    Long term UK review of vRS Wagon 2.0TFSI

    Several NRMA reviews (2 Octavia reviews, one Roomster)

    Everyone feel free to add others as they find them, this could end up being a quite useful resource.

    Oops, credit where it's due, the write up is from Webwombat, not GoAuto. Sorry... but the link is fine.

    Came across this Petrol vs Diesel Octavia comparo.

    http://www.caradvice.com.au/11705/20...rol-vs-diesel/

    A rare case of choosing petrol over diesel for drivability...
