FIRST UK DRIVE How does our favourite estate fare in chunky 4WD form?
THE Skoda Octavia was recently crowned Best Estate Car at our New Car Awards, and it’s easy to see why: it serves up huge amounts of space, a composed driving experience and a well equipped interior.
Whichever model you go for it’s great value for money, too, and now we’ve had the chance to try the face lifted 4x4 Scout version in the UK for the first time.
It’s easy to pick out the Scout model next to the standard Estate, because it features plastic cladding around the wheel arches, plus silver skid plates on the front and rear bumpers. It rides 30mm higher than the normal car as well, with raised suspension that hints at its improved off-road ability.
