Hello to everyone, new here and also to Skoda, taking delivery next week of the 2019 Kodiaq 1.5 tsi SEL in petrol blue. I'm 45 and remember all the old jokes about them back in the day, so saying that is something that I'd never thought I'd hear myself say😂😂

All jokes aside I actually can't wait to get behind the wheel. We currently have a Mk4v 2.0 tdci Mondeo ghia which is a solid car but we need something bigger where we can a separate the kids when they start fighting in the back, my 8yr old daughter and 3 Yr old boy try so very hard to annoy each other so a 7 seater was a perfect choice and I really liked the Kodiaq (there I go again with the crazy talk). My kids don't know how lucky they are to be getting something with this amount of space inside (and the 3rd row punishment chairs) I'm one of 5 and my parents had a chocolate brown mini, I still have nightmares about the Yorkshire to Southampton trips to the grandparents house several times a year in a car that small filled with the seven of us. Anyway that's enough from me for now see you all in the forums. 

A warm welcome to the Forum !  Fond memories of minis in the old days.  Both types of course if that's allowed😜
