The Skoda website says it's down for maintenance, but it's still available.

Rapid can be specced up with your options

Looks like that's still under development as you can get all the options on the Elegance (ie Sat Nav and DAB!)

Hmm, those have disappeared off the Elegance options list for me, maybe they're changing it as we speak?

Just had a play, and managed to spec an elegance with a few options for a grand total of £800!!!!

At that price, I'd be tempted, but get the impression they would not honour that price.

I tried the configuration earlier and every option I tried to select gave me a "cannot have that with other options" error

The only way I could get to the end was no options at all.

I might as well have just looked at the list price and saved myself the trouble.

Not impressed.

why would you need to use this. just pick up the brochure and choose the options yourself? add to the price, simple enough?

Don't 'need' to but it is there so should work properly.

I've not got a brochure so thought it would be easier to do this than go get one.

O well.

I just had a play with the Car Configurator (clicking 'build your own' when hovering over the Rapid menu item on the SUK homepage) and it worked fine?
