  • At the risk of being labelled a troll, I would hazard a guess that there are very few Yeti owners who are changing to a FL purely on the grounds that they have to have 'the latest'. There are a huge n

  • Well it's still an impressive car and it still is clearly a Yeti.  Just that the tiny bit they moved it on, does not warrant the cost-to-change numbers for me.  It has not remotely moved on enough fro

Looks like there have been some slight improvements in C02 across the range which may bring some models down a tax band.

I haven't time at the moment to study but did note, re new wheels, a 16" 'Forest' option for the 'Outdoor'.  Is it remotely likely that this will be adopted by SUK? 

and the larger diesels can now tow 2100kg.

I've just realised the difference in the bottom half of the front bumpers between the 2 different models!!

 

Def growing on me!!

Reading the press stuff then the European standard would be for the S and SE to be on steel and alloy 16" rims and Elegance and L&K with the oversized (IMHO) 17" alloys. No mention of letting customers have a proper choice on the higher specs and are SUK likely to over wheel the SE, as they have done with the current model :wonder:

 

The E appears to have been dropped.

Sounds like a posh person going clubbing in the 90s?!

 

Sorry couldn't help it, too late........

does that offroad version have better ground clearance then the other ?

Gosh this cack brown interior strip looks TERRIBLE!

The MDI will alas still live in front of the gear lever so you still can't permanently hide an iPod/MP3 player...  silly.

I LOVE the brown L&K seats:

Please Škoda UK, PLEASE can we finally have this double sunvisor?!!!!

skye21_522e28d40ea9a.jpg

 

 

Eh?!  This urban version again looks VERY low?!!  Yet nowhere is it mentioned that it gets a drop in suspension?

skye27_522e28d4e7381.jpg

 

 

This photo below confirms that we MIGHT get an OUTDOOR version of the L&K!!!! This is also the L&K exclusive brown colour.  Interesting wheels:

None of the Yetis pictured have aerials on the roof anymore?  Think the car will now only do with the horrid-for-reception aerial in the rear glass?

skye44_522e28d6e025f.jpg

 

 

Now this version below looks TERRIBLE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!  All the white body cladding, the puny wheels, the low suspension.  Really awful sorry.

skye47_522e28d741f18.jpg

 

 

Just like on the current Yeti the first thing to replace on the car is the horrid orange indicator bulbs with silver ones!

Ha!  I was right on this one too!  The rear camera is NOT inside the badge but is just part of the boot opening button.

Need someone to creep up and measure the tailgate badge - please, J :)

LOL expecting me to walk around the entire motor show with a ruler?!  LOL

Well you are Yeti royalty :)

Yes!

Use your initiative! :giggle:  Put something you know the size of next to it and then photograph it! :giggle:

One can now use the 3D configurator using the link below to see the urban Yeti in various colours and from 360 degrees.

Metal Grey indeed looks great but far better with the Matterhorns I think!  But it is a dark colour so hides the B-pillar shark fin too much, shows all scratches as white undercoat and will need washing 24/7.

Though I still think my favourite is the new Jungle Green:

One can also see the Yeti Outdoor in various colours and with various wheels on the same website.

Is the teracotta Orange the same colour as the old bronze or is it the bright orange colour that I've seen driving around? I know in some european countries the bronze colour is described as 'teracotta'...

Indeed! And for the Outdoor you have SEVEN alloy wheels to choose from now!

I haven't read it all properly but surely this suggests the 'E' is ongoing?

 

 

The hubcap for the standard steel wheel of the basic Yeti 'Active' has been redesigned. With a total of eleven different designs, the choice of wheels for the SŠKODA Yeti is more diverse than ever before. 

Hmmm.

Terracotta Orange with Anapurna wheels!!

1.8T with dsg now too. I've seen the tuned 1.8T manual somewhere on this site that, for me, with the dsg suddenly makes me want to not worry about fuel economy :-)

I'm liking this:

With perhaps this:

1.8T with dsg now too.

Where? (Or do you mean the lower power 1.8TSi with DSG, which hasn't been available in the UK previously and which still hasn't been announced here I think - CO2 too high until stop/start comes in.)
