Today,  10th December there have been many news reports that the Roomster II has been formally axed worldwide.

 

Although only months from production (and expected launch at Geneva show in March) seems to have been axed as part of the new VW executive stopping all new niche models to pay for the emissions recall.

 

Seems Skoda will concentrate on the 7 seat SUV (dubbed snowman) and the 2017 yeti,   there will be no normal MPV in Skoda line up

Here is the stillborn Roomster2.. front is quite smart IMO but the rest is just boring Caddy. Not really a worthy successor to the quirky original Roomster: http://m.autorevue.cz/getimagegallery.aspx?id_file=152598086&article=33818

Maybe not.  But more worthy than no successor.

 

I will have to look to Ford (Tourneo Connect) when the time comes to replace mine
