That's welcome news if it's true. When I called Skoda UK around 1 week ago, they said there were no plans to do that this year!

That makes complete sense, I hope they do that in UK too.

Hello all, I'm an admirer of Skoda cars and the packaging, quality and value they seem to represent. We are now looking to replace our 2009 Honda CR-V and are attracted to the new Kodiaq. But the only thing stopping us is lack of a 5 seat model in the range with the higher specifications (ideally a front wheel drive, manual 1.4 TSi SE L). So in the search for information about forthcoming new models within the next few months, I found this great forum. It seems a great community!

Higher insurance - I saw that posted that somewhere, but I haven't tried to compare quotes for a like for like model with only change being the number of seats. I also dont need 4 wheel drive, but maybe I'll hold out to see if further options will be released ...

Hello all - I'm new here, looks like a nice bunch of people! I'm looking for a Kodiaq with 1.4 TSI (150PS), 5 seats and I want a higher spec, like SEL as it has alcantara seats, LED lights. Ideally I want a manual gearbox too. I'm confused why Skoda will only release the 5 seater in lower specs in the UK. The 7 seats are not needed - they weigh more/reduce efficiency, take up space, cost more and also the car insurance is also higher. Not many people actually ever use them. Come on Skoda, give us more options to buy the car we want!
