I've got a 17 reg SEL estate in grey. 1.4 TSI with 7 speed DSG. Personally I think it looks way better than the pre-facelift model and not as plain as the new model. The SEL spec is great with the part leather and alcantara seats and full LED headlights. The engine is pretty punchy and very smooth with the DSG gearbox. Would not go back to manual now. The boot space and rear legroom is immense. Very pleased I bought one.
this comment is actually very much on spot. With estate car, judging its sport performance really doesn't make much sense. How about value for family ? Yes, it has a big boot. But there are other important factors I would like to get reviewed if buying a family car. Just a small example: this Skoda is praised for its practicality and small clever things. Like hooks for purchase bags in the boot, or special assemblable compartment for shoes, or ball, or watermelon, or anything you don't want to wander in the boot during the drive
That's a Hertz rental car. I can tell because of the square sticker in the window. I used to work for them. Great review btw. Enjoying the content on your channel and hope you grow big.
Folding the seats down is a joke with this car and most other estates, they just don't fold FLAT ! with one exception, The Vauxhall ASTRA, now put them down and it's like the floor of a van.
You remind me of the type of guy who drives an old astra with cheap alloys from halfords and thinks he’s the dogs Bollocks
Speaking as an Irishman, the potato carrying capacity is a very important selling feature most reviewers completely ignore :-P.

I haven't seen a Skoda since I was stationed in Germany in the 90's...certainly look a lot different. Keep the reviews coming!
It is a family car, is you want a sports car by a sports car,

You pronounce the vowel O very well and comes through when you say Power and Sport. Very good orator.
