škoda is such an underrated brand. I love that they still have manuals coming out. It’s one of my dream cars to own a manual škoda. Also since I live in Australia it would be unique since you don’t see many of them and they are apparently very reliable

We in India get 2 options for the Skoda Slavia. One with the 1L with 115hp and 178Nm of torque, and the 1.5L with the stats as this octavia. Man that 1.5 just can cruise all day long at 100 kmph in highways no cap.
