Looking at getting Octavia RS!

If I had my time again, I'd go for the "full" leather option. I might be wrong but the seat upgrade also gives you electric seat adjustment with presets.

Unless it is something new, it didn't give electric seat adjustment on the Octavia VRS, just leather. (In Australia anyway)

we don't get "electric seats" period. the oz spec'ed octavia vrs.
and that's also the reason why we don't electric fold & drop (for reversing) wing mirrors. it has do with the "memory" used.

our nz counterparts do though!

Hmm it used to be an option when I bought mine, I thought it still was. I just don't know anyone who got it though.

I'm not sure that any RS' get any form of electric seat adjustment... Of course I could be wrong but I've never seen it in an RS brochure anywhere. Even looking at the RS NZ brochure it's not there.

Well it's been a while since I originally posted up this topic. Still haven't purchased a new skoda yet, but will be just before christmas. We lost track for a while, considering other cars but once we jumped back into the skoda - we felt at home again. Nothing can match it for value - and I loveee the stereo!

Can anyone comment on the alarm option? We will be keeping this car for a few years and I'm still considering the leather - but much prefer the fabric look.. decisions decisions!

Had mine two years , love the fabric , no sliding around like the liberty 3.0r leather , and besides what you save you can put towards an ECU upgrade .

Had mine done two weeks ago , powers up to 180 odd kw torks 400 + , best thing i ever did , pulls like a train .

Have not had any issues with the car at all , great economy and bags of space in the wagon , mine came std with alarm , pre FL .

Happy car hunting .
