Mmmmm very nice! I think I like the new front now - it didn't look entirely convincing in the first photos. In person they're much better, especially the Scout (which I feel needed the facelift most). Does it have the folding-mirrors?

don't all cars have folding mirrors?

No, the current Face Lift RS's that just came into the country dont have that feature - strange really when the standard Face Lift Octavia's do have the feature. Might be a question worth asking Skoda Aus to clarify why the Rs range doesnt have this feature ??

I was told that the FL RS's were going to have folding mirrors operated from the key. Is that not correct?

Doesn't look like it, I just went out and re-checked on my RS, I believe it's part of the normal lock/unlock procdure with the standard FL Octavia's, but i also tried holding the button down for the window feature ( drives the windows up or down ) and that works on the RS, just nothing with the mirrors.
Like i said I might throw this question at Skoda Aus and see what response i get.

In fact I just sent them an e-mail now, lets see if they reply quickly - then i can add a response to the "Customer Service" thread also - ha ha ha ha ha

Sorry, I meant electric-folding mirrors.

dazag - the folding function should next to the heat function on the mirror controls, or yes, if you hold lock they should fold-in (like the Superb).

The Skoda Aus brochure said that the RS/Scout do have them as standard so maybe they're lying?

Official photos have been released of the 2010 Skoda Superb Estate. Looks...ummm...superb.

Yeah, have to say that does look rather....er....superb haha.

I do think they've done a much better job than the sedan but even that's starting to grow on me. Has anyone actually seen a sedan in the flesh (metal even)? I'm going to replace my car in about 6 months and I'm looking at everything/anything!
