Anyone Own a Skoda?

[Big Panda]

Someone in GB on my Jeep forum posted a story about a Skoda they own.

While I found many pics of old, present and concept models, THIS one kind of caught my eye.....

My brother-in-law has one, a station wagon with about 150,000 miles on it. He loves it!!

It's behind ME and my little maroon 450 in this picture.

The above piccy of the Yeti is a concept car, and as such never will see the road, the open back design is just to show you how funky it could look, but the Yeti is on sale here in Europe in more standard form as a mini 4x4 look vehicle.
Skoda is owned by VW, so most of the parts are VW, so the cars are no longer the joke they used to be.

Why do Skoda's have heated rear screens?
To keep your hands warm when you are pushing them

How do you double the value of a second hand Skoda?
Fill the tank with fuel

What do you call a Skoda with a cabriolet roof?
A rubbish skip etc etc etc...

Here is a link to a video of how the proper road going Yeti looks, I think it looks quite good.

The park assist video is pretty cool - not bad for a car in this price range.
