First sighting

[Nemutai]

I have just seen my first Karoq out on the road. Few false alarms that turned out to be Kodiaks, but first Karok outside a dealership.

 

Obviously apart from your own ( if your one of the lucky people that have taken delivery), have you seen many out and about?

[pryorkshire]

Beside the Dealer Service Manager's car no I've not seen another Karoq around and have been looking since I ordered mine in Jan.

[Nicky_P]

I too have had some near misses (kodiaks) but I have spotted a single Karoq.

I think I know who you are, are you married to the sister of someone who used to go down to my Mum's stables.

Take a bow Vectis , you got it in one

I have seen one today, he was pulling into the local banks car park and just in front of me, it was a emerald green SE? 4x4, I spoke to him and said he picked it up just 2 hours before from the same garage as Nick_p and myself are purchasing ours from.  I did ask how long it took him to get it from ordering which he replied just ordered it 2 weeks ago! I assume it’s a car bought from stock? Although he did say when he ordered he told the dealer he wasn’t bothered about extras.

What did the emerald green look like in the flesh ?

[Michael G]

Not a one. And only saw my first Kodiak today.

 

Beginning to think Karoqs are something mythical.

 

I remember this with our 1st Yeti bought in 2011. The car had been launched in 2009 but two years later they were still rare enough to wave if you saw another. Nowadays they're almost ubiquitous.

[Nemutai]

You still taking delivery this week Mike? Yours will probably be #2. If your is the Yeti I think it is!

[Karman]

I liked it, better than alot of the other colours Skoda have, he did say he picked that colour in the showroom from them colour ball chart things, so might not be a car from stock, sorry digressing now, so anyway it would be better with a beige interior and the green looked good in the sun we had today, and I bet it wouldn’t show the dirt up so much in winter either.

Baildon and surrounds, cappu beige 16 plate Yeti, yeti man sticker on the back? That'd be us 

 

The car is in the UK. Still hoping for before easter, but getting info from DMK Bfd is like pulling teeth 

 

 

[Nemutai]

I’m in Baildon as well. I pass a 16 plate on H.P.La. and another on B Av. walking the dog.

 

I’ve not been impressed by DM Keith especially the after sales. Hope you take delivery before the weekend.

Amazing. That's us, but H P Dr. Our new car will be the third we've bought from DMK since 2011. Never had an issue with after sales/services and neither with purchases till this last one. I know the Sales Director will be on us like a tramp on a kipper wanting a 5* review. I fear unless he treats us right he'll be sadly disappointed.

Seen one in white in a queue near Nottingham (going the other way) and one in business grey on the M1 (going south as I was).

Might see a black one this weekend.

[Janse]

So far I have only seen two Karoqs on the motorway - placed on a truck which was loaded with Skoda-models

Yes I'm hoping to see a black one at the weekend too......

[Luckypants]

I saw my first (and only) Karoq out on the road last Saturday, on the A5 passing Chirk. I think it was the standard blue colour and I'm glad I didn't settle for that.

Glad I settle for that

 

Is that a typo Luckypants? The one I spotted in Asda’s carpark was the solid blue, I must admit it’s not one of my favourite colours for the Karoq......

Certainly was! Fixed, thanks.

[anna_banana]

I've just seen my very 1st Karoq on the road, in white. Also saw a Kodiaq the other day, in petrol blue.

[Panther_uk]

Saw my first (apart from mine ) Karoq in Northfield area of Birmingham, Velvet Red which didn't look that special to be honest
