The current Octavia, not to be confused with the original classic Octavia that was produced from to , is now in its 3rd incarnation and has been around since It was the first completely new Skoda to be produced under the stewardship of the Volkswagen group and was an instant success around Europe, giving Skoda a much needed boost in reputation.
I struggled to think of a better way of explaining this, but Muddy Madam came up with a good one.
Same potency, different delivery. I'm not sure if that's how it's designed to be, or because the Scout is a heavier car. Pootling around town or driving to work, the ride is very comfortable and it handled the increasingly pot-holed roads around Bolton with ease. Use the ps on the open road and the Scout feels steady and secure with hardly any body roll, which is great considering its extra height. This can be attributed to a new and lightweight suspension system which includes a new multi-link rear axle that's 4kg lighter than before.
Of course, the Scout isn't your traditional 'off-roader', so I couldn't treat it as such, so I had to find a new place to perform my usual balancing act on 2 and 3 wheels. On doing so, it performed brilliantly on loose gravel, with not even a hint of wheel-spin.

Bored, I drove further afield to a couple of usually muddy lanes near Preston, and although it had recently downpoured, they were still relatively dry. The underneath of the Scout is well protected with what Skoda call a Rough-Road package, as well as normal shields that protect its nether regions, more are fitted to protect its brake and fuel lines. Add to that its revised approach and departure angles of Muddy madam loved the interior, but I had to agree with someone else who said it was a tad bland.
On the subject of switches, all are within easy reach and feel solid to the touch. I liked the sat-nav system too. The seats are finished in black or brown leather and Alcantara trim and are wonderfully comfortable, being both supportive and long enough in the base for my long legs, unlike its SEAT sibling. The Scout, and the normal Octavia estate are actually class leading in their interior space, with a ltr boot that grows to 1,ltr when you drop the seats, but they don't fall completely flat.

Common Problems with the Skoda Octavia
During the week I covered miles which included a real mixture driving, from off-roading, a lot of short 4 mile journeys and motorway blasts during which I seldom kept at 56mph, and you can read that as never! According to the ships log we averaged Did it have any faults? Of course it did, no car is perfect. This would happen both when I was stationary with my foot on the brake waiting for a gap in traffic, and when at lights with the handbrake on.
With the latter I would put the lever from neutral into drive, release the handbrake and immediately press the throttle and… nothing for a few moments. Overall I found the Scout to be a very sensible 4x4 estate which, in ps form, was exciting to drive. It's well put together and due to its rarity will hold on to its value. View fullsize. What is it?
