So, my brief flirtation with Skoda is over before it even began. I have to say this site has been extremely useful and has some nice people on it. I was, however, already slightly jaundiced by my previous VW Group experiences, and despite the attraction of the Yeti that I hankered after, the more I researched, the more issues I came across. Frankly this article (scroll down until you find the "Cars" heading and check the hyperlink in there as well - to a Yeti!) has been the final nail in the coffin, so I'm off to buy a Honda or Toyota I'm afraid, but good luck with your cars and a Happy New Year to all.

Hope you find a nice reliable 4x4 .
