That's a fair question... The Merc (C220 cdi estate) was bullet proof - did 80K in 4 years and only needed parking brake replacement. Still felt like a new car when it went back. Skoda first (bad) impressions - took a long time to find a comfortable driving position. The columbus sat nav doesnt appear to show traffic jams, it just diverts me off. without warning . Why are there separate traffic and navigation pages, surely these should be integrated? or maybe its me? Ride is less sophisticated / joggly over bumps and skips over bumps on corners when pushing on Far less spangly trim - but what should i expect, its a skoda, but interior is fine for me Mpg not great but car is still new No rear camera Dont like AAC wish it had standard cruise - too intrusive slowing down on the brakes and wont let me drive anywhere near as close to the car in front as in the Merc..... Good points - its quicker (190 v 170), Apple Carplay works, its bloody massive, better looking, 18's look good but a bit noisy depending on tarmac. Overall i'm happy for now provided the mpg goes up..

Helpful, thanks - will give it a go

Got 43 mpg on first long trip with 190 estate, pretty horrified but it was new. Now 500 miles on and got 49 on way home..

Hi i have a 2018 estate. I'm 6 2 so i want the seat right back but every time i get in the car it seems to have moved forward an inch or 2. Have tried setting the memory using set button then button 1 and get a beep but next time i drive its the same. Also if i press the memory button again and again it keeps moving the seat further and further in. Is there some link with the key?

Hi everyone - replaced C class with SE executive estate 190. First impressions -its big, quick - pretty impressed...
