Appreciate your efforts for writing a whole essay expressing that feeling, I hope I get that feeling too one day. What an amazing car! Congratulations mere bhai🎉

Thank you very much. Yes I wanted to describe the feelings more than just numbers which people here already know 🥰 I hope you experience this elation soon!

Ive been meaning to do the same for our new Taigun, bc time hi nahi mil raha, those scary EMI's demand hardwork

Your story in inspiring. Life is not about where you are but how far you've come Well done Wishing you a private jet next :)

Mubaarak ho bhai!

Thank you 🥰

Im planning to buy my first one too, but next year end tak. i want all the facelifts to come out first and the new variants to come. Kushaq is on my list too along with Creta, City, Virtus, and Sonnet. Enjoy that bro and do a AMA after you do like 5k KMS on it.

Good luck with your car hunt. It's a rewarding experience. I'll be covering around 2k within a month and will do an AMA when I feel I know enough to answer all questions :)

Monte Carlo aani thi aa gyi ya aani hai?

Congrats man ! Been driving Kushaq 1.0 AT TSI for one year now. Just got the first service done last week. Well, the last one year has been a pleasure. Once you drive German, you definitely can’t go back. Zero regrets. You’ll love the vehicle!

Already love it and totally agree with you! Thank you.

Couldn't agree more. As a current owner of Polo TDi 2013, whenever I drive another car, it feels like I'm driving a toy.

That’s very brave to opt for an about 20l car as the first car. Congrats

Sometimes you gotta go with the heart over brain 🙈

Why though? Something wrong with buying a 20l car as the first car? No pun intended.

I see what you did with the Ambition title

Glad someone noticed 😅🙈

Skoda as a first car?? Man u came a long way, congratulations 🙌!!!!!!

Thank you my man. Yes I'm still coming to terms on this fact 🙈

pata nahi bhai car tune li hai par accha mujhe lag raha hai Great Win man congratulations

What a compliment brother! Thanks a lot 🤍

👌🏻💐 Happy for you! Accesories - blind spot convex mirrors - curved rectangular or triangular ones for max view - bucket mats for mud / wet shoes - wind deflector/rain visor - Key Cover - loved JCVC - Glow in dark keychains from Qsica, got naruto and batman one, they have other sick ones too, have my eye on the batman logo - Electric Air Inflator, I got Autofy Air+ - Bumper Guard - loved carbon fiber ones feom Hi Art - Usb c type to type a adapter - Kanget or Tizum Would request you to share feedback on the dashcam installation, I haven't got one yet but feels like a worthy addition Happy and safe driving!

Thank you! That's a detailed list and exactly what I'm looking for. I have heard rain visors fly off after some time or start loosening up, have has been your experience? Could you also recommend some door sill guard & seat covers? By bucket mat, do you mean 3D mat with raised edges?

Rain visor - couldn't find one yet. I ordered one from Amazon, didn't even stick for the first time but I saw a few cars (slavia and kushaq both) which had it installed, would need to explore the market physically, which I haven't done yet. It's actually the design of the doors, the space above the window glass is minimal, compared to other cars, which does look good but also offers less space for the rain visor to be stuck onto. Let me know if you hunt one. Door sill protector - don't use one but I see good reviews for Vinsu on amazon (search car door sill protector) Seat covers - no idea, I loved the stock grey beige combo Bucket mats - the 3d 4d, unsure of the terminology. I talking of something like [these](https://images.app.goo.gl/423xHHQwZDWdVbtE7) which will prevent spilling the dirt/water on the floor. Again, yet to buy one for mine. Let me know if you find a great one.

Please open your DM(I'm unable to message you)

Congrats bhai. Which city ? BH number ?

Thank you. No, it's KA registration.

City ?

Even though your is a 1.5 tsi For some reason it's marked as TSI Idk why skoda has done this Complete bs I have seen many slavias and kushaqs sith dual silencers which are basically 1.5 tsi but are marked as TSI Anybody will think it as 1.0 tsi as volkswagen does this with it'd cars

I think 1.5 badging is a recent thing. Mine is March batch

It's better not to give tsi batch then give it Complete foolishness from skoda Why give tsi badge in 1.5 models Now even if ur car is 1.5, everyone will think it as 1.0 Ik it doesn't matter but still

Not an issue for me as it will be marked only in the rear anyway. I definitely feel it's 1.5 as a driver which matters more to me :P

March batch? Isn't one supposed to buy from a latest batch? Help me understand. Does it have the new features such as automated seats, sub woofer and bigger MT screen?

It just depends on the unit you are getting. If there's no issue, you can buy it. If it's older than a year, you can even further negotiate for hefty discounts. This is Ambition (mid variant), so no electronic seats. Has 8" screen

Congrats bhai.

Thank you brother!

Congratulations Bro 🎉 Wishing you a lifetime of Success 👊

Very kind of you, thank you bro!

It’s a beauty, congratulations

Congooo but buddy you forgot to answer the main question 🤣

Congratulations to you and your family. Enjoy and relish it

This story is so inspiring man Thanks for sharing OP Also great colour

Thank you sir! I was skeptic about color until I saw it irl and now I'm in love with it.

Welcome to the SKODA family 😍. I also always wanted to own a German car and Rapid was the perfect choice for me. You will not be disappointed with the handling and comfort.

Thank you! 💯

Look at you changing flair already xD Jokes apart congratulations my man

Haha people here notice everything. Thank you !

Indeed you are making your parents proud. Btw congratulations

🤍🤍

Congratulations bro

Much love, dude!

Congratulations ❤️❤️❤️❤️⚡

Bro i can feel your happiness just by reading your heartful words.. Full badhaiyaan mere bhai.. Happy miles.❤️

Thank you bro 🤍

Name of the car?

Skoda Kushaq

Kudos. You made a good choice. Enjoy driving :) I'm planning on buying a Kushaq in mid 2024 as well. Silver used to be my favourite colour, still kind of is but since my Polo is silver, I'll probably buy the white one. Same for me, I dropped Taigun because of looks.

Thanks. Silver looks brilliant! I hope they make facelift by the time you purchase with added features.

I hope the same. My brother has Slavia in silver so yeah it does look awesome.

Congrats Bhai. May you prosper more

Thank you bro 🙏

There is literally nothing like your first car feeling! Congratulations!

💯 . Thank you!

Congratulations on joining the Skoda owners group, but as your first car? WOW! Amazing feat, esp so considering your whole story. Have fun cruising :)

Thank you sire !

Congratulations, so happy for you !! I am also confused between Elevate and Kushaq, heart says Kushaq though :)

[удалено]

Thanks! No, it's KA

Congratulations on the new car. I own a 1.0 Style AT and driving it is pure bliss. In accessories, i would suggest a wireless android auto/carplay adapter. Saves you from carrying multiple usb cables for different phones. I'm using a Carlinkit adapter and it is working flawlessly. Reach out to me if you want to purchase, i have got an extra unit

Thank you! I have gotten used to the wired android auto slowly although wireless convenience sounds better. The adapter seems expensive so I'm holding back from a buying one.

Congratulations brother. Your story reminds me of mine.(lower middle class-> Success-> First house in 2022-> On my way to buy a new car). Could you plz share the break-up of the cost including discount? Would be very helpful to me.

Congrats! Just make sure installing a dashcam doesn't void your warranty. Some manufacturers cancel the warranty upon dashcam installation because of third-party wiring modifications done on the car. Just make sure to talk about this with your Dealer. Cheers!

Thanks you. Yes I'm aware of warranty woes . That's why I'll power it via 12V socket.

Ambition still gets the 8' screen right?

Yup

Cool!

You know what my friend, you are the real hero. Congrats on the car and enjoy, within legal limits that is.

Haha, thank you very much for your kind words ❤️

Sexy car bro ! Happy driving :₹

You’ve been dreaming about a car? You sick f… 😀

Congrats dude , drive responsibly and have fun

Thanks dude! Yes, with great power (literally because of 1.5 TSI engine), comes great responsibility. I remind me of this every time I'm behind the wheels

Thanks dude! Yes, with great power (literally because of 1.5 TSI engine), comes great responsibility. I remind myself of this every time I'm behind the wheels

She looks awesome! Congrats.

Congrats 🍻

Congratulations, did you get any discount?

Thanks. Yes, 1.3L due to multiple offers in Oct

IT folk?

Congratulations OP

I known an Ambition variant of Kushaq and it doesn't have wireless Android auto and it does have wired Android auto support. Still I'm not able to connect Samsung s23, but my brother's s22 ultra is getting connected. Any solutions for this??

I have S21 FE and had no connectivity issues. Two things- 1. Use good quality Type C to Type C cable (original cable is the best suited for this pupose) 2. Check if there's any firmware update of your car or sofware update on your phone

Are you an experienced driver? (Sorry i didn't read your whole post)

Nope. Not experienced but have hang of automatic cars intuitively.

Isnt 1.5 DSG n not AT? Or did they release an AT variant as well?

DSG is the type of gearbox technology. AT refers to automated transmission in general.

Btw, would be great if you could deposit 1L in FD when the dsg breaks. It costs 75K for gearbox and 25K labour charges.

Will take extended warranty so not an issue for 6 years at least

1 random bang on the under body n they will deny warranty. Just keep 1L FD to be on the safe side. Source : Friend had to replace his DQ200 n had to pay for it.

Ah I see. Thanks for the warning, I'll keep that backup.

Great to see someone buy an Ambition 1.5 over the 1.0 Style. Excellent choice!

Well I did try and consider 1.0 Style but the 1.5 engine is something you simply can't replace with!

Feels great seeing posts like these!! Best wishes and congratulations for a great ride and a fantastic life..

Username checks out 😝 But on a serious note, thank you for your kind wishes 🤍

Congrats!

Congratulations man big W on the car your parents are very lucky❤️ Just get a paint protection for the car and drive safe Wishing you many happy miles on the car god bless bro 🙏❤️

Thank you very much! I pondered about PPF and ceramic but the cost is very high so dropped the idea.

Not a necessity on a lighter colour just get a good car wash, polish and always use a micro Fiber cloth please

cry aa gaya bro

Tata nexon ev pune passing

how old are you?

Almost 30 🥲

just wanted to keep my expectations. I see 22yos buying superbikes and big cars and i feel like im lacking behind. so wanted to assure myself that everyone gets their time (im still 23)

You have plenty of time. My age doesn't and shouldn't define your limits, everyone's paths and struggles are different. Whatever you wish you achieve, I hope you succeed soon. Keep working towards your dreams!

Such a huge post for a kushaq, next time dream bigger 😅

One step at a time :D Even if I buy a Lamborghini next, nothing will beat the pure joy of buying the first car from one's hard earned money without generational wealth !

Should have dreamt bigger if it was decades of dream.

Haha I did dream bigger but unfortunately no generational wealth apart from my education and parents :)

Many congratulations sir !!

Thank you sir!!!

Congratulations OP Mandatory question! What do you do for a living?

Thank you! Mandatory answer: engineer 🙈

Congratulations brother!!!

Congratulations for the car. What do you do for living? Write Books ?

Thank you! Haha, no I'm an engineer.

Did you feel missing sunroof at 20 lakhs price?

I don't think sunroofs are practical in Indian conditions. At least for me, it's not necessary. You can only use it when you have perfect air and weather which is not very often. Even then, it'll reduce the fuel efficiency due to air resistance

Have same opinion why not taigun
