There's a new paint option available on Skoda's Octavia vRS, and it was voted for by fans.

To celebrate 30 years of the Octavia, Skoda asked UK fans what colour they'd like to add onto the performance Octavia vRS model. The choice was between Dragon Skin, Storm Blue and Tangerine Orange.

After voting took place across Instagram, Facebook and LinkedIn, the public chose Dragon Skin – a vibrant metallic yellow – as the winner, and as such customers can order it to adorn their new Octavia vRS Hatch or Estate from 4 March, at a cost of £855 on top of the standard price.

As well as Octavia vRS models, the Dragon Skin paint will also be available on a limited run of Octavia SportLine models later this year. Only 130 cars will be painted with the new hue, alongside three other new paint finishes – Waterworld Green, Space Violet, and Royal Green.
