That was ours then!
Sold to a BHPian & enthusiast from Lonavala, who I spotted driving a vRS Combi last a few months back.

Looks great, bigger wheels changes the character of Octavia. Lenso Jäger Dyna was one of my top choice while upgrading my wheels. Considering it’s Lenso and that sticker on rear windows, I guess it’s from Car Trendz Bangalore
Are the tyres 225/45/R17 or 225/50/R17?

Thank you!
Yes you are spot on! I did get it from Car Trendz, the tyres are 225/45/R17 Vredestein Ultrac Vorti.

Skoda achieves milestone of 1 lakh Octavia deliveries in India-img20190905wa0017.jpeg

Here's a picture of my 1.8 TSi L&K, on the day of delivery in September 2019. The car was bought as a replacement for my 2012 Vento 1.6 TDi Highline. The person on the extreme right in this picture is my sales advisor, Shyju. He is possibly the best sales advisor I have had till date.

I have enjoyed every drive in my Octavia. The odometer reads only a shade over 14K KMs as of today, since she is not my daily driver. I have a 2020 Polo 1.0 TSi MT for daily usage.

List of mods on this vRS -
Is the all wheel drive system on this car from the diesel VRs available in Europe? In other countries skoda VRS is offered on diesel and petrol version and the diesel counterpart is equipped with AWD. In India we get Front wheel driven VRS because only the petrol version is available here. Some inputs on the technical aspects and hardware used in AWD conversion would be appreciated. Well this car appears to be an epitome of performance that can be extracted out of a street car.

Re: Skoda achieves milestone of 1 lakh Octavia deliveries in India

Congratulations to Skoda for offering such a product which was a game changer for the D-Segment sedans. The one and only Skoda Octavia. It’s the definition of an all rounder. Purchased the Octavia L&K TDI two years back and have completed 38,000 Km on the odo. Till date there has not been one reliability issue, or a point of disappointment with the car. The car has always impressed me in every aspects. The engine-gearbox combo along with the understated, elegant and sharp look is what I love the most about the car. The 2.0 TDI + DQ250 gearbox is a match made in heaven. The car offers fast outright performance when your right foot demands it and provides great fuel efficiency when driven sedately. The dual headlamps makes the car completely stand out, they’re beautiful. Hope to keep this one forever.

Re: Skoda achieves milestone of 1 lakh Octavia deliveries in India

Happy to see such passionate Octavia owners! But with India’s roads getting clogged more and more in traffic, sedans would soon be a thing of the past. Unreliable DQ200, gripe of careless motorists, ground clearance and especially fitting it into narrow parking spaces - it was inevitable the news of its discontinuation by march 2023. With launches like the Hyryder, grand vitara and Kiger and availability of shorter sedans like the Ciaz and Amaze they are here to stay.

Re: Skoda achieves milestone of 1 lakh Octavia deliveries in India

Hi all,
It's always a pleasure taking the Octavia 1.8 TSI for a spin.
And during long highway drives the fun is even more, you may achieve 'FUN'tastic figures like the ones shared here. Of course, the option of sedate driving is always there to get good FE.
