Hi Guys, I'm seriously considering an Octavia vRS, and just wanted to say that these forums are a great help in finding out info

Currently driving a Pulsar GTi-R that will run 355bhp @ 1.4bar, and even though its untouchable, its 15 years old and I'm fed up with it. I run a second car for work due to the Nissans non existent mpg, but its time to grow up and just have the one car... and the best bet appears to be the Octavia

Looking at a couple of 2002 models this weekend.

Only thing left to decide now is Yellow or Silver!

BLACK

Beef · 21-03-2005, 23:12

Lol, the Pulsar is black, and I'm lazy

. My last silver car always looked clean

**JaneC** · 21-03-2005, 23:22

Yellow is best

WrightyRS · 21-03-2005, 23:25

I've got a silver one for sale,53 reg in silver with some of the most worthwhile modifications.

Hello and Welcome by the way

Everyone knows black is best. You know it makes sence

Any colour as long as it's not red, yellow or silver

**TaviaRS** · 22-03-2005, 14:27

Go for the silver, it is easier to keep clean than the black. Doesn't look as good when clean (all 10 seconds with a black one

) but hides it better when dirty.

Nature-green is what makes me happy .... Has a bit of "racing green"

Hello and welcome

lozgti · 22-03-2005, 17:39

Thankfully it looks good in any one of the five option colours( inc white WRC).

Historically silver ones are slightly quicker top end and perhaps 0.5 to 1.0 seconds quicker 0-62.

Don't believe what anyone else tells you

Beef · 23-03-2005, 13:55

I can't have white as ALL The taxis where I live are white octavias and I don't wanna get flagged down all the time

Black does look good, but we shall see

Beef · 25-03-2005, 10:44

A black one has come about now...
