Skoda Octavia vRS (01-05) - Review Review by Simon Harris on 16 February 2006 The Octavia vRS put Skoda on the hot-hatchback map in 2001 with an estate model following in 2003. Sharing components with the Mk IV Volkswagen Golf, using Volkswagen Group's 180bhp 1.8 turbo engine as well as the know-how of Skoda's skilled chassis engineers the Octavia vRS turned out to be a high performance bargain and a thoroughly enjoyable drive. 4 out of 5 Other Skoda reviews Summary Facts & Figures Equipment Driving & Performance Comfort Costs Safety & Reliability Buying & Selling Also Consider Company Car Info Owners' Reviews Gallery Also Consider 3 out of 5 Subaru Impreza Estate (00-05) Four-wheel drive as standard, decent boot space, neat styling, WRX version is a strong performer Cheap and dated interior, standard engines are lacklustre Read full review 3 out of 5 MG ZS Hatchback (01-04) Driver satisfaction, badge heritage.
