Easiest way to recognise a Octavia Classic (Cheapest Model....like Mine!) is the side mirrors. Octavia classic has black side mirror, while the ambiente and above has side mirror with the same color as the body colour. Also the side strips on the doors are not standard items, and the wheel is 15" wheel with wheel cap. (higher model has 16" alloy rims as standard).

 

Won't be able to differentiate between ambiente and elegance, other than the badge at the rear.

 

Easiest way to recognise my car is the big dent on my front left !! @#$%X!

Err.....thanks for the clarification - that's so similar to the pointers I'd give to differentiate the 3-series bimmers. [:)]

 

And, oh, btw, just remind me not to ask about the big den... [laugh]

Wah... don't say that . The Classic is a very competant car. A real workhorse. The Octavia is even sold with the 1.4 engine overseas!

 

The thing is... JTA spoilt the looks of the interior by putting the huge black cover over the front winding window handles. Other than that, its a very nice car too!

How do you tell the trim level of an Octy thru visual recognition ? Does it say somewhere on the nameplate of something ?

 

There's a nameplate that says Classic, Ambiente, Elegance . The Elegance also has rear disc brakes.

Sorry, but eyesight a bit poor to catch that level of detail when Octy's go zooming past in the opposite direction.... [sly]

1.4l on an Octy ? [shocked] Won't that make it a tad underpowered, especially with the aircon running and all that ? Far as I've read, even on the Leon, the 1.4's a bit on the weak side already - and that's effectively a Tody without a boot.....
