At the beginning of the year I ordered my first new car. A Skoda Octavia hatchback with the smallest petrol engine you can get. This is the Style variant, which has all the necessary equipment plus some not so necessary. Only extra option I would have liked to get is an adaptive cruise control, but in my mind it needs an automatic to accompany it, so I didn't check that box on the order sheet.
It was scheduled to be delivered at April or May, but for some reason it was ready two months early. I did not complain, and went and picked it up today. Here's some pictures fresh after a 200 km drive in pretty horrid conditions:
It was clean at the dealer, not so much anymore. I'll take more pictures when the weather gets better and I can wash it.
First impressions are good, although I did not have time to find a perfect seating position yet. But at least the steering wheel and seat have both a very broad range of settings. Will be interesting to see how much this consumes in reality. Trip computer said 5,2 l/100 km for the 200 km trip, which had a bit of city driving too, but I'm not sure if I should believe it.
And here's a proof pic:
