Any 2.0 TDI RS drivers here?

[VRS-Vic]

Hi guys...Just wondering if anyone else here drives the Diesel RS here, or does everyone have the Petrol version?

I've seen a few of the sigs of some of our fellow users here with the words (V)RS and TDi in the same sentence. My dad was considering going diesel at one stage, and might've even considered the RS TDi, but went with a RS TSI instead, which, btw, is an awesome motor vehicle! < you'll find that I'll keep saying this, over and over, I just love the RS!

VRS_Vic,
Sorry but yeah I have petrol (lol I make it sound like a bad thing!). I originally ordered an Elegance 2.0TDI wagon, but found I could have an RS hatch (the boot is almost the same so I wasn't bovvvered) for only $1k more! I LOVE it!
I just don't like the dealer though...

I have an order in for the new Face Lift Octavia RS Wagon 2.0 TDI and pick it up mid September. I test drove most of the Octavia range, and opted for the TDI over the TFSI only because of the torque & economy difference - I'll be towing an enclosed bike trailer behind it, so it's what swayed me. Otherwise i think I would have gone for the TFSI - that had a sweet sound and very responsive - and the wife loved driving it also.

Like dazag I have just ordered a facelifted RS TDi Wagon, Black with manual box. Hopefully should be delivered mid September. I am looking forward to it.

You can probably tell by my username - yes you have one here.

I have a Racing Blue 2009 Octavia RS TDi DSG Wagon. Only 4 weeks old and bought from Richmod Skoda.

Must say I am rapted with it. I'm driving quite regularly between Melbourne & Mildura currently and the diesel is great for the trip and uses bugger all fuel.

Cheers

Ah who sold it to you at Richmond.....I work just near them so got mine there last year...same colour but petrol and a hatch. Also moving to pretty much Blackburn at the end of next week so might pass you sometime around the traps.

been driving a octavia RS TDI sedan for about 7 months now, still loving it.

I also bought mine from Richmond Skoda just over a month ago.

Mine is a white wagon RS with a DSG gearbox.

so far, so good. I love the fuel ecomony with Diesel. It just keeps going and going.

I'm still finding it hard to get used to the gearbox thou.

When i accelerate from a stand still, it tends to jerk once and then gets going. Not sure if that's a deisel thing or the gear box.

Does anyone else have this issue?
