A number of parts of the car, of course, is made known specialized firms, suppliers, local and foreign. It must be emphasized that all data presented in subsequent chapters are merely informative. I hope they will be useful to readers interested in getting acquainted with the device and design of the car Skoda Octavia. For maintenance and repair needs to exclusively use the service of Skoda.

Description and main technical data
We must remember that the subsequent information given in the book, obtained in the process of becoming a serial production, i.e. for 1996. The specified range of types and modifications, as bodies and engines, and gearboxes manufacturer will gradually change and expand.
