My last 2011 Octavia VRS TSI was in Race Blue and I did love that colour. My present car, a 2018 Octavia VRS TSI 230, is in the colour you can no longer get, Quartz Grey.

The Skoda Octavia is a well established tow car and you see many towing, however these are more often the Scout 4WD version. In normal driving condition the car is 2WD so performance will be roughly the same. The VRS Diesel sounds like a very good tow car in my opinion capable of "punching a little above its weight" . 2023 Skoda Octavia vrs experiences! Hi all!
