Can't say I'd even considered the C5, found this deal on an 18month lease (5.8K), I need a minimum on 12k miles a year, good spec though, Leather trim, rear camera, park assist, 180bhp Citroen C5 Aircross SUV 1.6 PureTech 180 Flair 5Dr EAT8 [Start Stop] £245.30 incl VAT monthly rentals £1471.80 incl VAT initial rental Personal contract hire Contract term : 18 months Rental profile : 6 + 17 Annual mileage : 12000

I have the same spec and got it the same time, done just over 15k in mine and whilst it's nice and confortable, easy to drive etc. I can certainly agree it just feels like it's lacking something, only got 9 months left on my lease and seriously thinking about going for a smaller hatch next time, something a bit more engaging.

I see the Ateca has issues also ! https://ec.europa.eu/consumers/consumers_safety/safety_products/rapex/alerts/?event=viewProduct&reference=A12/0672/19&lng=en

Interestingly enough I drove a new golf 1.5 TSi DSG today, had it in individual mode (steering in Sport, engine in Normal) and it coasted, even cut the engine out completely st some points when coasting (rev counter dropped to zero), didn't have to have it in Eco mode and managed a ver impressive 64.9mpg !!!

SKODA lettering on the tailgate, more like the ATECA then

At least you didn't get it booked in the dealers, could have been worse

When I had the auto dipping on my Octavia I found on very narrow lanes it wouldn't go into high beam, I always put this down to the general amount of light generated on dipped beam confusing the system into thinking it was lighter than it actually was, never had too much of a problem otherwise.

Does this work for Whatsapp voice calls ? Everytime I try to answer one of these I end up hanging up !!

On mine if I remember right when I quickly double press the phone icon on the steering wheel controls it hangs up.

The Faraday pouches 100% work from my experience, can stand right next to the car and it won't open (wifes Kia, not a karoq), just does not detect the key at all, as soon as you take the key out of the pouch the mirror unfold etc.

Don't have anything holding it in place, but theres nowhere for it to go, ther is no sideways movement even though there looks like there is space but is held in pretty tight once the boot floor is in place.

Hi Bohmer, Not sure about the full size spare, but I got an aftermarket space saver spare and jack etc.and ordered the polystyrene side piece from Skoda but it's embossed with the SEAT name !! Fitted a treat though

Short trip I would steer clear of the diesels, 1.0TSi should be OK, my wife had the 1.2 Yeti DSG (same power) and it was perfectly fine round town etc. OK on the motorway to be fair would easily cruise along at 70-75ish. SE Tech is also worth a look as you get the Sat Nav, front parking sensors and ACC all as standard.

Have to agree 3rd Skoda for me and it never passes 90 not even on the hotest days (25 to 30 degrees on an exceptionally good day !)
