Last Saturday I visited a local Skoda dealer, test drive Yeti nady by the Shanghai Volkswagen.

Do you know what colour that is?

Looks like a mix of muscovado and bronze?

I quite like it.

And I must say, that when I first saw the pics of the FL I wasn't impressed but it is certainly growing on me.

Looks like Bronze metallic, but agree it does appear to have a Muscovado tinge to it as per the first pic.

left one at show room? we call it Desert Brown.

Just come off the phone to SUK. They have confirmed that I can't change any options on my order as the factory is about to close down for Xmas break and by the time it reopens it will be build week 2 which is when it is due to be built. Its annoyed me as if I had known about these options earlier something could have been done but due to a complete lack of up to date info on the f/l yeti it is now too late for me to choose these options. I can't wait for the 3 year contract to be up and I can be rid of Skoda for good. No car is worth waiting 9 months for. 

Finally been told that our Moon White Yeti Elegance is arriving at the dealer today and can collect it on Monday. Lets hope they've ordered the correct gearbox this time. 

At long last - good luck!

 

Corrida Red

Well I don't care what anyone else thinks, I think that looks good in red.

Well done Andy.

It looks better than I expected. 

Must say that looks good ,the red seems better on the F/L  than any other colour IMHO, and this comes from a owner who prefers "The Classic Yeti"

As I've always maintained the basics of the Yeti is still there and the car is still handsome.

 

The LED DRLs are utterly pathetic though in their light output.  A bit of sun on the chrome bits make more of a visible line than those candles.

To be fair lads the photo does not really do it justice, its gorgeous in the flesh, and I am really glad I got it in red.

Anyone ordered a Jungle Green FL yet?

Ours has just arrived at the dealer, will collect her next Saturday, but will pop down and get some photos when it stops raining.

Well managed to get a couple of photos between rain showers, and am really pleased with how it looks, roll on next Saturday.

Finally managed to get some pics taken of our new FL Yeti - just after it's first wash!

I saw a corrida red F/L this week and really liked the look of it.  It looks nice in photo's but think it looks even better close up.  I was in 2 minds whether to go with red or candy white (like Jedoka's).  In the end I chose white ( with matterhorn alloys) but I know i'd be just as happy with the red.

Just to confirm, you specced LED rear lights as an option on the Elegance?

Confirmation then, that the FL Elegance gets the sparkly brown dash trim as standard then. 

 

Also LED rear lights are an option on the Elegance (only), and standard on the L&K.

Just to confirm, you specced LED rear lights as an option on the Elegance?

Yep - part safety (reaction time), part to be different from the current one and partly out of rash decision making.

Finally off to collect the Yeti! Shame the weathers terrible.

Good luck - it's been a long and painful wait for you both, but I am confident that you will not be disappointed.

 

Photos and initial report asap please.
