Actually I am surprised it did as well as 40mpg with a flat battery. 

I'd suggest your friend was attracted to the tax benefits mentioned by 181ce and just drove it 'like a journalist' without really much thought of using the various modes to advantage.

Yeah spot on said he was paying only about £80 per month company car tax which is very little.

Okay.

My driver's side C.V. has just started a machine gun impersonation, obviously Skoda keep a load of front suspension/drive line parts in a leaky shed out the back.

It's gone soon as humanly possible.

I'm gonna loose my shirt given it's only 1.5 and all the fleet cars Skoda sold at the same time will be coming back any second.

Another Skoda?

No a chance in hell.
