Why Aren't These Cars Driven?




Yellow and {rare|uncommon}. No. Not a canary {but|however} a Skoda Octavia VRS going for what {I think|I believe|I feel} is a pre-{delivery|supply} inspection {at the|on the} Puspakom in Glenmarie, Shah Alam. {The reason|The explanation|The rationale} {it is so|it's so} {rare|uncommon} in Malaysia is that {no one|nobody} buys Skodas. Under Berjaya Automotive Skoda has been floundering. Not {because|as a result of} the {cars|automobiles|vehicles} are {bad|dangerous|unhealthy}, {but|however} {because|as a result of} Malaysians being Malaysians, {cars|automobiles|vehicles} {without any|with none} resale {value|worth} {is never|is rarely|isn't} {looked at|checked out}. Maybe its the {name|identify|title}. SKODA. {Can you|Are you able to} {seriously|critically|severely|significantly} {feel|really feel} any good vibes {if you|for those who|if you happen to|in case you|in the event you|should you|when you} {tell|inform} {people|folks|individuals} you drive a Skoda? {Even though|Although|Despite the fact that|Regardless that|Though} it {is some|is a few} Czech {name|identify|title} in {the first|the primary} place. I doubt such a {conversation|dialog} would {happen|occur}. {The great|The good|The nice} {thing|factor} is {that there is|that there's} {someone|somebody} brave, or {crazy|loopy} {enough|sufficient} to spend {at least|a minimum of|at the least|at the very least|no less than|not less than} RM200,000 on a {top|high|prime} of {the line|the road} Skoda Octavia. A VRS comes with a 2.0TSI engine {that you|that you just|that you simply} see {in the|within the} Golf GTI or the Audi A4 2.0TFSI Quattro {sold|bought|offered} {here|right here} in Malaysia. It comes with {either|both} a DSG 6 speeder or a 6 {speed|pace|velocity} {manual|guide|handbook}.





This yellow one {came|got here} with a DSG {box|field}. The {thing|factor} about {this is|that is} {that is|that's} {Should be|Must be|Needs to be|Ought to be} {much|a lot} cheaper than {the two|the 2} {cars|automobiles|vehicles} {mentioned|talked about} above. What you do get is a Golf MK5 chassis with {the same|the identical} engine and a ridiculously {huge|big|enormous|large} boot, {as it|because it} has a rear sloping hatch {even though|although|despite the fact that|regardless that|though} it {looks|appears|appears to be like|seems|seems to be} like a sedan. Its a fastback/liftback. It {could be|could possibly be|may very well be|might be} the dream Golf GTI for some, {name|identify|title} {aside|apart}. A boot {to carry|to hold} tons of stuff. Anyway, this new VRS {looked|appeared|regarded|seemed} {like it|prefer it} {came|got here} with {all the|all of the} goodies. A 200bhp, 280Nm direct injection engine, the {superb|excellent|very good} VW Dual Clutch Gearbox and a boot. Hmm. Practicality and {power|energy} in {the same|the identical} sentence. {Must be|Have to be|Should be} the {family|household} man in me typing. {I must|I have to|I need to} applaude the {person|individual|particular person} {buying|shopping for} this {car|automobile|automotive}. Yes it does look good, for an elongated GTI. The bonnet has some {interesting|attention-grabbing|fascinating} humps and creases. That grille aggressive. {And those|And people} lights are {pretty|fairly} cool. A small 'Octavia' is engraved into {each|every} {side|aspect|facet} of the headlight casing.





{I think|I believe|I feel} when {those|these} VW/Audi {fans|followers} in Malaysia {start|begin} opening up their eyes to the VRS, Skoda will go {places|locations}. Bang for buck {they say|they are saying}. And wait {till|until} this {car|automobile|automotive} {gets|will get} on the second hand market. It {should be|must be|needs to be|ought to be} dirt {cheap|low cost|low-cost}. While {I would|I might|I'd} say that {buying|shopping for} a Skoda means {that you|that you just|that you simply} {must be|have to be|should be} {crazy|loopy}. {I think|I believe|I feel} it {would be|can be|could be} crazier {if you|for those who|if you happen to|in case you|in the event you|should you|when you} went out and {bought|purchased} a Saab {here|right here} in Malaysia. Saabs are {even more|much more} {rare|uncommon} than Skoda {these days|as of late|lately|nowadays|today}. {People who|Individuals who} {buy|purchase} Saab {think|assume|suppose} they're {buying|shopping for} a fighter {plane|aircraft|airplane}. No. The Saab that makes the Grypen or the Viggen {isn't|is not} {the same|the identical} {company|firm}. It hasn't been for awhile. But {I think|I believe|I feel} one {brand|model} that beats 'em all. {According to|Based on|In accordance with|In keeping with|In line with|In response to} what I'm {aware|conscious}, {local|native} Renault importer TC Eurokars {brought|introduced} in and {sold|bought|offered} some Clio Sports {and some|and a few} Megane Sport or RS 2nd {generation|era|technology} {a couple of|a few} years {ago|in the past}. These {cars|automobiles|vehicles},I've {read|learn} are {great|nice} {handling|dealing with} {cars|automobiles|vehicles}. {One that|One which} {I would|I might|I'd} {appreciate|admire|recognize|respect}.





However, {the two|the 2} {cars|automobiles|vehicles}, {especially|particularly} the Megane RS {came|got here} into Malaysia {just|simply} as Renault {were|had been|have been} launching {the new|the brand new} {models|fashions} of {both|each} {cars|automobiles|vehicles} in Europe. There {should be|must be|needs to be|ought to be} {at least|a minimum of|at the least|at the very least|no less than|not less than} 10 {units|items|models} of the Clio Sports and Megane RS {that have been|which have been|which were} {brought|introduced} into Malaysia. I {mean|imply} any {less|much less} it {would be|can be|could be} uneconomical {to maintain|to keep up|to take care of} a catalog of spares for the {cars|automobiles|vehicles}. You {can't|cannot} {seem|appear} to see any {of these|of those} on the {road|highway|street}. The {question|query} is, who the heck {actually|really|truly} {bought|purchased} them and if there are {people who|individuals who} {actually|really|truly} {bought|purchased} them, why aren't they being {driven|pushed}? I've {only|solely} seen one Clio Sport at Sepang {once|as soon as} and a blue Megane RS over a 6 month {period|interval}. Do they {buy|purchase} these {cars|automobiles|vehicles}, supposedly drivers {cars|automobiles|vehicles} to park them at {home|dwelling|house|residence}? These are {just|simply} {hot|scorching|sizzling} hatches, not Italian exoticars. Why aren't these {cars|automobiles|vehicles} {driven|pushed}? While {I am|I'm} {talking|speaking} {about the|concerning the|in regards to the} {performance|efficiency} {versions|variations} of the {cars|automobiles|vehicles} above. There was {also|additionally} a 1.6 Clio {4|four} door hatch being {sold|bought|offered} alongside {the two|the 2}. But {I haven't|I have never|I have not} even seen {one of those|a kind of|a type of} on the roads of Petaling Jaya or Kuala Lumpur {recently|just lately|lately|not too long ago}. If I did see one, {it'll|it will|it's going to} be {close to|near} the Renault showroom in Section 13, Petaling Jaya. That {would be|can be|could be} a {test|check|take a look at} drive {vehicle|automobile|car}.
