Thank you.. I 'm trying to find a monte carlo ( the UK sports version .. not sure if they do it elsewhere) near me

Thank you! I'm on a mission now to see if I can get one of the local dealers to lend me one for a day. Or at least for a longer A road trip.

Thank you! I'm wondering if I should as for a longer test drive, and may be play around with seat height/ rake. I hope you enjoy your new car.. sounds like a good start! T

Dear people, Your views please. We've owned many VAG cars over the years, including 4 Skodas. I'm currently in a Peugeot. I was very keen on a Scala 1.5 SEL manual (not keen on the small capacity TSI as had that in a Yeti, with a DSG, not good). So I test drove the Scala. Loved everything about it except.. the driver seat, which I found flat under thighs and lacking in side support. I did try different adjustments, but you know, trying out cars just isn't as relaxing an experience as it was pre Covid. I'm 5'9 and weigh 75 kilos. I don't usually have problems with car seats. Was comfortable driving Fabia, Yeti, even Citigo. I'm wondering whether I just got too used to the sports seats on my Peugeot.. Would be interested in how other people find the Scala driving comfort wise. I do 300 mile motorway trips in the Peugeot with a couple of breaks. Also, are the seats on the Scala Monte Carlo better? They didn't seem to think so at the dealers. Many thanks!
