skoda Vrs for me

I prefer the Optra , its the best VFM package.
IMO it looks great also.
ANd I dont care if its a Daewoo Nubira Badged Optra
The car is simply elegant, has great interiors.

The skoda is BIG, but whats the use if there is no enough room for a 6 foot person in the rear .
Plus the price diff between the Octi and the Optra is also wide
approx 3 laks for the base 1.8 Optra and Ambiente OCti.

i would pick up the lancer and then work on it and make it work like a evo 7

I agree with GTO, and my vote goes for the corolla. Built like a tank, decently good looking ( dont like the tail lamp cluster though) but will last a lifetime.
Good engine nice high driving position, and offcourse it is one of the highest selling cars in the world in its segment.

Why nots :
Optra - Korean sheep in a American wolf makeover
Octavia - Not bad, but I would say dated. ( offcourse RS rocks but then thats not in the comparison basket.
Lancer - I dont think this car belongs in this company.

Corolla.....built like a tank ? I don't think so..Octavia's built like a tank.

Ovtavia, No doubt!! It is something refreshing for the indian market. And all things considered, its the best out of the lot by far. However, i feel that Skoda unnecessarily compromised on the rear leg space by having the bedroom behind it. Another thing is that Skoda have made a mistake with the Superb. It will get eaten by the competition!

The Octy for me too especially if it's the RS.
I really like the Optra too but it lost to the Octavia on the engine department.

But I think the Optra has a better ride than the Octavia. (my point of view)

It has to be the Octavia...n that too the RS in RED!!!!

v.tec · 13th March 2006, 11:07

is'nt really a tough choice!! skoda wins hands down...! the most superior engine in a vrs...built so strong..

octy RS for sure as of now - but i may be willing to change my mind when the civic hits the shores.

I guess you are talking about the Skoda octavia 2.0 here bcoz RS is priced much much higher than the competition.

I would certainly rate the RS first.

but against the octavia 2.0 my choice would certainly be the invecs.

Just loved the car when I test drove it.
