New Octavia ....when? How Much?

[AUSL]

Here's what I'm thinking -

103TSI Wagon with DSG in Ambition Plus ($28,140) and Tech pack($3900) - RRP $32,040.

Is $30,000 a realistic price for this package? I'm sure there's some negotiating room in these prices.

Tech pack appears to be $3300 for Ambition plus.

I doubt youd get it for $30k now but after the excitement has died down in 6 months it should more than do-able. I would have thought $29k actually as 10% off is about the same as fleet pricing.

$3300 is the tech pack price for the elegance, $3900 is for ambition plus. There was typo in the earlier post.

Only 1 manual offering on the entry level spec. Speaks volumes on the laziness & incompetency of Australian motorists.

My boss jumped in my car yesterday and said.....what's that gear stick thingo and extra foot pedal for!!! He also asked if my car was a VW.....I said no, it's better than a VW!!!

As he jumped out after I dropped him off he said....damn nice car actually....except for that gear stick!!!

I wouldn't buy another Occy unless it came in a manual. Particular seeing the only alternative is the swear word "DSG"!!!

Surely they'll offer the RS in a manual?

Seems to me that its very competitive (given the glowing reviews overseas). Hopefully Skoda do well out of it.

On the downside, .NET errors being spat out on skoda.com.au - just what you want when you've just released the most important model in your line up.

Edit: website seems happier now.

Thats because they're only available in packs here

Going on the prices of the 132/110, they are not leaving much chance of the RS models coming in significantly cheaper than the Golf GTI, which it needs to be to sell. Oh well, wait 6 months and the prices will drop to get them moving.
