[TheRoq]

They’ve come down in price now. £18 including shipping.

Think I paid about £27.

Well this is first sighting of mine, collected yesterday.   Absolutely delighted with the car and the service from the dealership in Aberdeen.   1.5tsi SEL manual, with some factory extras.   Ordered on 17th March and ready for collection on 7th June, 2 weeks ahead of original delivery date.   Petrol Blue really shines when in the sun and seems to change colour depending on the light.  Makes a nice change from the greys and silvers I have been driving for the past few years, although I still have a grey car too.

 

Very nice plate Mr Massie 

 

(I’m into plates too)

Private plates aren’t everyone’s cup of tea but it wasn’t expensive and actually my son’s initial in front.   Had it for a while now (previous birthday present for him) and decided it was time for it to go on a car since he doesn’t have his own car yet.   I’ve a bit of a matching set of those ones.   Not so sure that HE thinks it’s cool to have his name on the front and back of a Skoda though

Three today in and around Leeds. I’m getting my eye in with regards Karoq/Kodiack. Easy from the front, but harder from the back unless I’m close enough to read the badge.

Karoq has different shaped rear lights than the Kodiaq, more of a ‘c’ shape. I keep seeing Kodiaqs too!

[Michael G]

Just seen my first outside the dealers.

 

Homebase Crossflats, nr Bingley.

 

And the right colour too 

[TheRoq]

I hadnt seen a single one since I bought my car in April.

Then I saw 3 in 3 days in Buxton, Lichfield and Uxbridge.

My friends didnt share my excitement.

All I get now is, and I quote "PLEASE stop talking about your car!"

Family. Workmates. Friends. Not nice if your Mum sez it....

(These people are NOT petrol heads.)

Got to say it’s a dream to drive, so happy with it. Great for the kids too. 

 

Much better drive and better made than the polo.

Hey, I once changed my car before (without telling the wife) for an almost identical model (it was a Volvo S40 at the time), same colour etc but it had a bigger engine, slightly different alloys and a 6th gear.   It took my wife 2 weeks to realise it was a different car - in fact, it was my 8 year old son who clicked when he asked his mum if I had bought new car mats

Still haven't seen one on the road but there was a white one in the car park at my golf club in Edinburgh today.

What I find great is that even now, I can go for a couple of hours drive each way and not see another Karoq! 

 

Millions of Qashqais though!
