I'm quite a young Yeti driver, I'm 24! I love my Yeti.

 

Often I'm the topic of many car discussions for choosing a Skoda Yeti... Apparently its very odd for someone younger than 35 to choose such a brand and a car?

 

Are there many other young Skoda Yeti drivers out there?

Voted, but haven't we already done this before?

Can't remember ??

But voted anyway just in case.

Yup I remember doing this last year sometime.

Voted, I've got the plaid slippers, pipe and cocoa special edition Yeti. (but I didn't tick the optional beard, as I'm a slaphead and it would look as if my head was on upside down)

Demographics may have changed since the last vote.

Nice to keep things fresh.

Voted - not yet in the oldest age bracket of the poll

 

This is the thread with Nick P - http://www.briskoda.net/forums/topic/289320-who-is-the-youngest-yeti-owner/ and he found there is a member of the forum with a Yeti at 24, who presumably had it at least as far back as age 22, from posts he made around the time I got mine.

You're a brave 'lad'!

Congratulations.

Which model?

Yeti 1.2 DSG elegence

Got a beard yet? More seriously how's it comparing to your previous vehicle?

The update or original googly eyes?

Hairless (face). Previous - VW Golf MK6 TDI. Fuel consumption on the Yeti = terrible in comparison. 30 quid in the Golf got me about 450 miles, Got just over 250 in the Yeti. Better car for day to day physical needs though.

Update

Just looking for some better fitting blind spot mirrors, to see the parking bays easier. Had these on the golf: http://www.drivingcomfort.com/commuting-solutions/blind-spot-mirrors.cfm

 

Very good.

 

But these don't fit that well on the Yeti :(.

 

Anyone know of any good alternatives?
 

Was hoping mirror tilt would be an option with VCDS but i dont have memory seating

Here's the age poll I did a few months ago:

 

http://www.briskoda.net/forums/topic/300454-whats-the-typical-age-of-a-yeti-owner/

Yeti - Check

Beard - Check

Over 60- Check

 

Typical Yeti owner then!

Early 30's when I picked mine up and suiting me nicely still even though I'm now I'm my mid 30's.

With the long waiting list for the pre FL & many people not liking the  'unique' exterior style , it would be a fairly safe statement to say that the FL version would encourage people who did not like the original to buy this one, alongside maybe encouraging those who bought 1st time around to update.

 

With the not like / like comments when the Yeti 1st came out i would be VERY surprised if there have not been quite a few 'new' Yeti owners since the release of the FL.

 

Bieng one of these new owners, it was NOT becasue of the styling, it was down to the timing around changing car.

I just can't identify an oncoming FL Yeti from other vehicles, not just Skoda either.

You might be better opening a new thread on this subject, as it will get better coverage that way.

Yes but a number of the older folk may have popped off since the last vote!!!

41, female, no beard, so probably not a typical yeti driver?!

I would suggest you grow one forthwith and fully join the clan
