    I disagree, you'll do it several times and even if it doesn't hurt every time you'll have muck on your trousers, especially y if you find that having a cover on the ball sets off a rear sensor.
  2. I'm sure the current 'spec' shows wireless for Apple only, specifically 'not for Android'? Just had a quick look around but I can't see where I read it........ Edit: Found it, it's in the brochure under 'standard spec' Radio, Telephone and Navigation DAB (digital audio broadcast) radio Bluetooth® Wireless SmartLink for Apple Car Play only (wired for Android Auto and mirrorlink) Voice control Columbus satellite navigation with 9.2" touchscreen display and integrated Wi-Fi
  3. Up to £135.00 value before any import duties come into play. The problem here is SuperSkoda not being bothered about any UK business.
  4. So it seems....after seeing on the UK Gov site that anything under £135 is not a problem I looked at ordering from SuperSkoda, rubber mats and a set of mudflaps. Good price compared to UK dealers, especially with the extra 20% off. However, seems the rubber mats are too heavy for SS to send to the UK so I removed 'em and left just the flaps in the basket - amazingly they want 25€ for delivery plus some other fee taking the price for a set of flaps from 22€ to 48€. No sale here.
  5. I've bought from SuperSkoda in the past and been happy with the service and 20% off looks good, however, import duties / vat / other taxes, that might / might not be applied at the door are currently putting me off...........
  6. Just looking through the Skoda web page at Superb specs and I noticed: Please note - "The 2.0 TSI 272 PS DSG 4x4, 2.0 TDI 190 PS DSG and 2.0 TDI 190 PS 4x4 DSG engines are only available from stock." Curious inasmuch as I only ordered one 3 days ago.......
  7. Ta, though it looks great I'm thinking the modification might be out of my range..........
  8. Very nice, looks great. Is this foot well mod an easy upgrade on vehicles with ambient lighting fitted? Note: Apologies if I missed it but I've cruised these forums looking for the answer to no avail.........
  9. Ours does this now and again too, it always clears after a restart though and or switching off the ACC.
  10. I've always thought it a bit stingy of Skoda to charge £250 or so and not include the rears.........

    On our 2019 model I can have a block overlay with the radio station name but it’s none too subtle and for me pointless. Accessible via the ‘View’ menu on the Navigation screen - ‘split screen’ and then ‘audio’........
  12. There's too many for me not to be suspicious - same with the new Golf.
  13. Thanks for the advice Ajdude - I'm thinking it might be dodgy - private owner - 'couldn't get on with the high tec screen'........... I pushed for service details and it seems the head unit / info unit has been changed......
  14. Anyone on here recently rejected a red SEL estate, YP70WLW?
  15. I’d imagine that would work if it was a Skoda price increase but as it’s a EU inspired UK Revenue & Customs tax increase it all comes down to dealer goodwill...........
  16. Thanks for the pointer towards Carfile Skidpan, a good deal can be had it seems ......... pity about the £40k road tax - you'd think the extra 'luxury' tax would have increased / moved with the times over the last 5 years?
  17. Yep, my Golf, coming up for 11 years / 100,000 miles, both fobs still going, the Karoq lasted 20 months / 6500 miles. That Kessy system sure does use the charge.
  18. Thanks Marky, however, it's the second time around thing I'm concerned might make 'em (VWFS) reluctant to play ball.........
  19. I’m getting on a bit and thought my 10 year old Golf might see me another 10 years and in to my 80’s - but on the other hand, the ‘care home’ or worse might be just around the corner so, sod it, I’ll get something more fitting for myself, I’m thinking a TSI280, a anonymous looking beast I’ve admired for some time. Question is, does the finance offer ruse still work? That is to say, (I did this 2 years ago) can you still cancel and pay it off a week or so into the finance deal and keep the perks, I.e. the £3k discount and the £159 service deal? I’m wondering if VWFS UK might hold some sort of ‘blacklist’ and refuse me? Anyone done this more than once?
  20. Ours refuses to set the correct time via GPS also - I’ve turned it off but have to go through a few hoops to reset the time when the clocks change.
  21. Might be in the wrong forum the above post - but what is the 'dreaded' Kessy fault?
  22. ....and another one here.
  23. Missing the point here KennyR, that being, things have changed.........for at least 20, maybe even 30 years it’s been ‘normal’ for the interior light light to come on when the ignition is switched off........Kessy comes along and the (very handy night time facility) is somehow dropped. Seems it’s also a deleted ‘feature’ on BMW’s too.........
  24. Like I said just after you posted last week, a truly backward step by VAG on keyless vehicles.......
