I wonder what the part numbers are for the badges.

I haven't seen anything about this before. I assume its a way of extending the life of the Octy 1 1.8T in certain countries

I reckon it would sell quite well in the UK if they did give it as an option - i.e. soft remapped RS with a warranty - but they won't do it as it would take sales off newer models.

I would guess this version uses the same ecu spec as the Audi a4/a6 as they had 190hp spec, just a pitty these weren't sold while on sale in the UK

not sure if it is.

the audi version does have twin intercoolers too so not quite the same as the octy

I will say that the biguest mistake Skoda do was calling the new (Octavia II) car Octavia too!
I really dont undertand why they dont put initially a new name to the Octavia II? This way they will keep selling the old Octavia as a regular model...........What a shame.........The Octavia I still have a good line and looks very good.

Its look like Skoda undertand now his big mistake and they are trying to relaunch the old Octavia just putting a powerfull engine...............

I really dont know who will want to buy a old model just because it have a more powerfull/bigguer engine
