It’s often not through choice Andy, circumstances change and folk get a requirement to tow after they’ve bought the vehicle, none of us are clairvoyant 😊 … That’s why there’s an aftermarket option with factory fitted wiring prep. Skoda simply need to get their act together and make it all work like it’s supposed to.

My 2 year old (circa 12k mile) Skoda Superb is with the dealer this morning (Murray Skoda in Plymouth) for its annual service (£260 with brake fluid change) and I asked for the wheels to be rotated front to rear as I always do to even out the wear. Just had the call from the dealer to take payment and was told that there is a £72 charge for this!!!! This is absolutely disgraceful, I’m 60 years of age and this is the first time I’ve ever been charged at all for this in 43 years of services with several manufacturers but to be charged such a ludicrous sum for what is no more than 5 minutes work is simply outrageous. even if it’s 15 minutes for a laggard, this is an hourly rate of £288!!!! Skoda should not be treating loyal customers in this way. I’ll now pop down to my local tyre fitters who will do it for a tenner. Didn’t realise main dealerships were ripping folk off in this way so thought I’d share to alert others.
