SCR  =  A   TDI  a AdBlue system. Maybe just a bit costly out of warranty if it goes wrong, and some do but many more will not.

I got 16” wheels twice on my Yeti’s. Contacted Skoda(UK) headquarters and after a bit of perseverance got through to the right person and from there it was easy. Skoda(UK) intercepted the dealer order and made the change directly with the factory, car arrived in UK at dealers with spec’d 16” wheels no problem.

I always spec minimum approved wheel size on new cars simply because on our deteriorating UK roads higher profile tyres provide a more comfortable ride but are also much more able to handle potholes etc. They are also cheaper to buy!

I am convinced low profile tyres are simply a marketing gimmick and touted to the gullible British buyer as being “better looking” by the tyre manufacturers who stand to sell more tyres at higher prices.

Low profile are a true pain.  Yeah they look good but the compromise is a hard ride that feels every bump and makes them 10times worse.  Our other car is a Peugeot 308 CC GT line with 18’s and it is harsh.  Tyres on cost aren’t too bad, I changed the front recently and paid £150.00 for two Avon, I like Avon’s on it.

I was looking at a new Kamiq yesterday, still not convinced.

I just want a new Yeti. 1.5 petrol Hybrid, or electric, as my mileage now is well short of what we used to do.

 

The other option is, Seat Arona 1.5 FR Sport.

The 1.0 & 1.5 TSI's with Mild Hybrid and DSG will come.

 

Likely not the 1.4 TSI Hybrids and the Electric Skoda is looking kind of big when it comes other than than the Citigo iV.
