What about the things that annoy you?
RichieL replied to Iamholam's topic in Skoda Octavia Mk III (2013 - 2020)
Yes, I also found this annoying, the front ones are small. The rear ones are even smaller! They're huge compared to the useless ones I had in previous focus!! -
Factory privacy glass - bit light?!

I didn't make the choice - something which you have failed to grasp. You didn't give advice, you poked fun and spouted some ill informed views on the legality of tints. You've been about as much use as a chocolate teapot. -

Are you for real? When have I ever said I was going to change the tint on my car? When did I ask for anyone's advice on how to tint my car? I merely commented to say that i, along with other people had the same issue and then you and your condescending buddy come in and start name calling. I don't want your fictitious advice about tinting, I didn't appreciate being called a chav, I won't be adding an aftermarket tint and I won't be changing the car! -

A subtle hint about his own preferred taste. Was it required or asked for in any way? I ticked the box for privacy glass and got what seems to be sunset. So the tint does look light. Should I have a look at your cars and pick fault... -

Is it really called sunset?? In the options list I ticked privacy glass not sunset glass. Take your inverted commas and condescending attitude elsewhere. -

I was a bit disappointed with the privacy glass on my octavia too. Had a focus previously and an s40 before that and the tint was much better. -
First skoda for me. Took delivery of an Octavia Estate SE Technology 1.5TSI in December. Went for 17" Trius alloys and privacy glass in the options list. First new car I have owned. Love the car, find it quite fast for a big car although still breaking it in! Love the infotainment system and find new things most weeks! Loving the forum so far!

Octavia nose dives on pullaway

My 1.5TSI does this all the bloody time. I feel like a right clown when driving. My wife, who drives the car more than I do, has managed to adapt her driving style to overcome it - I haven't yet!
