As the sole European member of the Motor1 US team, I often prod my colleagues about just how good I have it when it comes to car variety. Despite living in an SUV era, Europe still has hatchbacks, sedans, and wagons abound. I can still get a regular Volkswagen Golf here in Romania, even with a manual gearbox. However, in 2017, I chose its superior alternative: The Skoda Octavia.
