Those LE wheels look horrible! The white one also has sat nav

Isn't that white 170 overpriced? the only extra I can see is the sunroof, and I think that they are changing £2k over book price, though I may be missing something.

Or is it that because of supply and demand, when my car turns up I can sell it on at a premium

There are several Yetis on the SUK used car locater that are well above book price,ie up to £3000-00 over what the online guides are suggesting.Going by the Reg' plates I suspect they are all ex Skoda fleet cars.

In my experience the quoted prices are just the starting point. As always you need to talk to the seller before concluding that the deals available are unrealistic.

I can see why they are more expensive, especially the last one, and thats waiting times.

If you order a new yeti now, with a panoromic sunroof you will be waiting well into next year. Why wait, when you can have one now thats nearly new and direct from Skoda. I suspect, that these are the same as my Superb and come direct from Skoda. My Superb has Skoda Milton Keynes as its first recorded keeper.

The waiting list could be 2 years long I would still not be ripped off by anyone.If people want to pay silly prices good luck to you,its your money.Even if you managed to get £1000-00 off the asking price you are not saving a grand it just means you are being ripped off by £2000-00 instead of £3000-00.Sadly,there are people who will go for these deals.

I think that the savings could be a fair bit more than £1K Even a bit more than the higher figure you quote!

There again I bought back in the days when Yetis were only just beginning to attract a longer waiting list for new.

That one with the 18" wheels ought to be quite a handful in the snow I'd bet it could not get out of it's own way.

I do find that Skoda second hand car site very annoying when you are trying to decipher what options a car has. If someone is searching for a car they have already made the decision to get a Yeti or whatever and they KNOW the standard spec. I do not need to know that the car has ABS or 3 rear headrests! Why can't they just have that as a list you can expand if you want to and ONLY show the colour and options under the main pictures? Or at least add another box listing only options? They really try their best to hide things and in the first of your last two examples did not even list the Annapurnas!

What is this "Manual Headlight Elevation" that is specified? Is it something on the SE and below? I don't have it on my Elegance, which seems to adjust its own headlight levels depending upon the angle of the car.......

Hi George,

yes the non headlights have a manual level adjuster wheel next to the dash light brightness control. Yours are fully automatic

Cheers Tim - I ain't the eejit after all.......
