The RS245 has been removed from SGCARMART. Sold out?

Its still there, but it only exist as a trim of the octavia, not as a separate model on its own

Can ACC be retrofitted ? Eg. buy radar and the signal stalk.

True, but in all honesty.. changing oil every 5k is a waste of money.. Modern engines these days can probably run to 20k before an oil change.. unless you intend to keep the car for >10yrs which is very rare these days..

err.. no not really.. certain "branded" one can last probably 7 to 10 K due to the nature of how the oil is made. And these are not cheap oil like those you find in Giant mart. Goes for 25 a quart.

Yeah i brush my teeth twice a day without fail and go for annual medical and dental checkups regularly.

Most of my famly members and friends do that too. 😁

Yes i do agree with u that warming up a modern fuel injected engine is old skool and unnecessary.

However, running in two pcs of moving metal is still essential. Technologies, better machining and assembly holds higher tolerates, shortens run-in period and not to skip it totally.  If u were to talk abt quality, Jap cars are far more reliable than contis.

I sort of agree

For some leisure reading on the perceived reliability of japanese cars, and why the contis cannot usually match.

This is interesting. Both the Germans and japanese are reliable in their own intended context/function.

Koreans are pretty good too, many Hyundais and Kias in Korea running around.

No idea about USA.

French cars? Good luck!

This shows skoda owners getting more and more, time to divide by model. Then be more specific and at least share same problems
