NO ONE back in Czechoslovakia told us that the car was called "Estelle"... For us it was just 105 or 120. The "coupe" was called Rapid but these 4 door models only had the numeric badge.
I was born 1983, our first family car which my parents bought in late 80s was Škoda 105L. And I had to wait for like 30 years until like 2 years ago to find out here on RUclips that the car was abroad called Estelle. :)

Here in New Zealand, i owned a 1980 120L. It had the twin headlights and chrome bumpers. I bought it in 1985. It was hilarious and dangerous to drive with 4 people aboard as the steering just didn't cope. I went over a pothole o ec and the entire heating system fell out from behind the dashboard . I do wish i had on e today . Funnily enough i own a Citigo now.

Great film, thank you. Not only have I owned 5 Skodas, and really reliable, ans economical motors they were too, but I lived just up the road from this plant in kings Lynn in it's heyday back in the early 1980's. A fantastic 'blast from the past'.

Hello Sir , I'm glad that you have enjoyed the video .You can find on my channel also other vintage cool videos regarding Skoda's from the 80's. For about 4 years I'm the proud owner of a Skoda 130 LSE from 1986.It was a beige with black roof version , but after the rebuild I choosed the white + black roof theme. For about 2 weeks I have decided to search for the car history in the UK . Hope that I will be able to find some info regarding the car history .From the discussion that I have with the first Romanian owner the car was donated and register first in Romania 1993.

Interesting film! In Finland we didn't have any vinyl roof models (LSE). Gls was the highest spec. Rustproofing was mandatory for all imported new cars in the 80s and it was done not just superficially but also inside sills, doors etc.
