The Citigo ASG is an automated gearbox which has been used in models such as Vauxhall, smart and others - ours has just passed 120,000miles from having it new and yes you need to get used to the gearbox and how it will not crawl when you lift your foot off the brake pedal. I would suggest going for the highest specification your budget will allow We only wish it was still in production as we would order a new model today, instead we will continue with our exisitng

Following on from the 110,000miles service our Citigo ASG has now just had its 120,000mile service!!! We've tried to share our servicing experience and decided to continue with using our local hammers garage. As this was an oil service it went absolutely fine with no issues engine wise - the only issue we had noted was sticking rear brakes and on inspection and cleaning it was advised that these would need changing. So the servicing issues we have experienced in the 120k: 1- Skoda garages do not really change spark plugs when they say they do - most probably as it will cost them to replace the coil packs which appear an issue to remove 2- Rear brake shoes replaced Warranty claims 1 - radio signal lost because of the antenna failure (x2) 2 - headlight lost adjustment 3 - Seat base height adjustment lever stopped working Honestly for what was essentially a £10k citigo new they are built very well and able to take on high mileage without any issues (touch wood) - weve decided to run our until it is uneconomical to repair so maybe some more updates in the future. Cheers

Following on from the 100,000miles service our citigo ASG has now just had its 110,000mile service!!! We've tried to share our servicing experience and on this occasion we decided against having it serviced by a main skoda dealer and going to our local hammers; the first time and we have an interesting story to tell. The service we went for would be the major service with spark plugs and all the filters. Being trusting to Skoda we were really surprised to get a call from hammers to be advised one of the coil packs was not budging and that they would likely need to replace it once removed. With agreement we got another call explaining that it was removed and they were querying the last time the spark plugs were changed and asked me to visit them to inspect the spark plugs which had been removed. 2 were in good order... the one with the stubborn pack ... well it had had many birthdays and was close to destruction!!! In others opinion Skoda hadn't previously changed this spark plug due to the coil pack. Very disappointing considering the citigo was supplied with the 5yr/100k warranty and it would have been an easy claim. Our Citigo ASG other than this part replacement remains faultless (i decided at 6 years old and with covid that battery change was due) since its purchase in 2014. We would like to buy a replacement Citigo ASG but of course that isn't possible and when you look at 2017/18 used options its as if they have hardly depreciated!! The decision now is to keep running it until it can give no more and share our experience which will now be provided by hammers opposed to Skoda I would be interested to know how other Citigo owners experience when the mileage is similar to ours and what to look out for? Also how do you get a non approved garage service to be updated on the skoda digital service history?
