I think I need to look elsewhere! I really like the look of the Mk IV and was fully expecting to get one to replace my excellent Mk 3 VRS. Initially got put off by to inconsistency over standard kit (heated steering wheel and option packs that were inconsistent (that is unprofessional)). Then there was a price rise and then I keep reading about all these issues. I know the lack of buttons would be irritating but having things not work is really poor from Skoda. What has happened to them?

Good to know that your VRS came with a heated steering wheel but I've been confused by this as well. In fact the entire range of standard equipment, extras and add on packs is a total mess imo. The configurator mentions 'part of a cost pack' but I cannot see them available anywhere. Also the VRS seems to come with some stuff that the packs do include yet the price increase seems to be for the entire pack (as if all components are required even though it comes with some). Also the skoda website 'full equipment list' mentions heated seats but not heated steering wheel!?
