I finally got the time to drop my Rapid at the service centre to address the battle scars I have picked up in the last one year.
And how could I not use this opportunity to drive some beauties?
It was a fairly long day at Skoda today, I took my besties along with me and they both own Fords now (Freestyle & Fusion). We had a long, long discussion with the sales team and sales manager Mr Praveen. It's always a pleasure discussing cars with like-minded people. We discussed India 2.0 to Goa to Zac to Octavia and everything in between. Finally around 2:30, we all went for a long test drive and below, I will be sharing my opinion after driving the monster of a 1.5 on the roads I regularly drive. In Goa, the roads were completely new for me and I could not do an apple to apple comparison.
I have personally never seen so many cars at my dealer. Kushaq and Slavia have really taken the sales game to next level. Also, my friend who accompanied me today, his cousin crashed his 2018 Rapid DSG a week ago and his car was declared a total loss, he is buying a pre-worshipped 2017 Octavia now and the reason why he could buy one now is because he was in Rapid, had it been other car, things would have been different.
P.S. Since I left my car for insurance repair, Skoda offered to drop us at our respective places in smoking Red Hot Slavia 1.5 DSG and again it gave a very good perspective to experience the rear seat on our usual commute route. Thanks to the team for making our day a worth visit.
