How do!

New member from North Yorkshire currently awaiting a delivery date for my Yeti Greenline II SE. Getting it via work (NHS) as a lease vehicle. Be interested to know what other Greenline owners think of theirs. We have a family holiday to the South of France this summer so especially interested to know what they are like on long motorway journeys.

Welcome to Briskoda Barts.

Get yourself over to the Yeti section of the forum and ask the same question where you'll get more views and reviews of the Greenline.

Welcome-I'm not a Greenline driver but can vouch for the comfort and long distance capability of the 140. A 2300 mile round trip down through France and Spain to Portugal and back via the long ferry.A good holiday car 3 up outbound and 4 up home. I used a roof bag for extra luggage space as I was the only male on the trip!

Hi and welcome,

again not a Greenline owner but have also driven deep into Europe with our 110 4x4. Drive out with me as the sole driver, I covered approximately 980 miles in about 17-18 hours. Tired but not uncomfortable at the end of the trip. Would recommend lumber support mind, previously owned a Yeti SE without and it does make a difference to comfort.

I took delivery of a Yeti Greenline Elegance a couple of weeks ago so I'm still running it in (1500km covered so far). The only real issue I have is an increase in road and tyre noise over my previous 2.0litre 110 diesel. Much of this appears to be the tyres, the engine also appears more vocal than the 2litre. The long legged gearing takes a bit of getting used to but is well suited to motorway driving and there is ample torque for overtaking etc. The stop/start system is good and involves no learning curve atall. As I've said I've only had it a number of weeks so some of the members who have had their's longer might be of more use to you. I also see that Auto Express have added a Greenline ii to its long term test fleet.

Thanks for all the replies folks. Looking forward to getting the car and seeing how it compares to our current 2003 tdci mondeo (130).

The electric chair lumbar support is excellent. Well worth it in my opinion. Better than the manual versions I have tried.

If you dont mind me asking how long did you wait? I have been qouted 26 weeks but when i test drove one at the weekend at our local dealers the salesman reckoned that it was 12 weeks for a greenline!! :no:

Hi, I picked up a Greenline Elegance just over three weeks ago.

Now, 1600 miles later it has been great and in fact better than I could have hoped. I also bought this through a company car scheme attracted by the low BIK.

I do a mixture of motorway driving mainly and some short round town trips.

It has averaged a genuine around 47-48mpg-a few mpg short of the computer reading and quite a bit short of the 61mpg combined advertised.

However, I haven't been hanging about on the motorway and I think the figures will improve as things loosen up.

The car handles pretty well, feels solid and well made and feels safe on the road. Performance-wise it is quick enough to keep up with pretty much all traffic and is pretty refined, very comfortable and amazingly well equipped as standard. Everything just works well. Having had various other cars in the past new, it is as good as any VW or Audi I have had. I am sure you will be impressed with it and the car will handle a road trip to the continent with no concerns at all....

all the best.

Oh, I waited around 10 weeks all in, having been quoted 7 months........but I went crazy on the extras ordering carpet mats AND the tyre pressure monitoring system
