Here's my Yeti.

On a run today, we got an average of 50.7 miles per gallon. That will do for me!

I'm really pleased. It's quite possibly the best car I've ever had.

That is a fine looking Yeti there John. Thinking that I should have found the extra cash to go for steel grey.......

Sweet colour! Enjoy, counting the days now till I can pick up the beastie....

Detachable towbar was fitted at Allams yesterday and had a trial fit today. Very sturdy bit of kit. I had the factory towbar prep so the hole and access panel in the bumper were already there. It took 3 hours or so and was the first one they had done. Can't confirm price yet as I haven't paid yet (with an Allams rewards card I get discount on parts, so may differ from other dealers anyway).

I played around with the parking sensors today, tow hitch on and off and it doesn't change as I think has been reported (at least not on mine!) - remains at 30cm from the bumper. Kit comes with two keys, lock cover (stops crud getting into the lock when it's on the back of the motor), bag for tow hitch (but there's already a cut out slot for it in the polystyrene tray under the boot floor by the jack), bung to keep the tow bar socket clean and even a pair of gloves!

Lighting plug swings down when needed. Adaptor converts what I presume is the new/continental plug to the standard UK 7 pin variant.

In Sweden, all 4x4 Yeti's are equipped with Westfalia detachable towbar as standard.

I think there is i problem with it.......it´s too high (49cm [19 inches] above ground in center of the towing ball)

At least 5 cm ( 2 inches) too high

The Octavia Scout have the same problem

The center of the "ball" should between 35cm - 42cm at gross weight (about 500 kg)

by the way - nice pictures!

Thats the first shot of a Steel Grey Yeti that looks like what I expected it to on my monitor!! Looks very smart indeed imo. I may mock up a few accessories and darker tints that Im thinking of doing now that I have a half decent photo.

just a snap of my snowmonster after a wash

Must admit colour suits it better than I was expecting when we first saw it 'in the flesh'

Great photos Octy!

- she looks quite at home on the grass :yes:

I love your 3rd and 4th photos the best, IMHO, as she has such a pretty face!

Below photo 3 is a great shot of the DRLs- could you put that one into the DRL thread as well when you have a minute

She's smiling!!

so what have you called her...

Have fun with her and all best wishes

Will do Lady P.....as for a name, not really thought of one yet, she's definitely a she though, I guess Pat is a bit obvious.....always think of Pat Butcher (Eastenders) and she's miles better looking than her so maybe not

I know!!

Patsy! :beer: :cocktail: Consider her christened!

Blimey! And I thought West Sussex got it bad...

I got the impression that everyone in West Sussex either fitted those things or complained about it.

Charlie,

I echo Octy - that looks gorgeous!! even with its roof and bumper protection still on and in horrible weather and in a rubbish location and..

...What is your Yeti (- he / she what's it's name ?)- going to look like when you pose it for your 1st photo shoot

This could be a rival for Aeros gorgeous white Snow Monster

bet you can't wait now!!

best wishes

Lady Penelope

ps.You 2 naughty boys are in detention!

Hi Charlie,

looks fantastic; the colour reminds me of my first Haldex equipped Skoda, an Octavia 4x4 Turbo hatch, think that was call Admiral Blue.

Glad you managed to upload the photos, worth the effort

Regards,
