Skoda's quality enjoys last laugh

Skoda has been quietly motoring ahead

Once the butt of jokes, carmaker Skoda is certainly having the last laugh. The Czech-based company, today owned by Volkswagen, has come second in a survey of the best cars on UK roads. So much has its quality improved over recent years that Skoda was beaten only by upmarket Lexus in the JD Power and What Car? customer satisfaction table.

ROCK ON SKODA!

Rob.

Just dropped a line to my old friends at mini2 telling them of hoe in the real world the gap between Vrs and cooper is much greater than the video clip showed as the Vrs much greater mid range acceleration means that yuo can get from A to B much quicker and safer in the Vrs than in my old cooper! Don't want to upset them too much though as I've a cooper convertable on order, not to replace the Vrs i must add, just something to pose in around town, as you can't get anywhere fast in them!!

Sorry. My mistake, I shouldn't have mentioned anything about MINI on here.

It's all about Skoda and them basking in the glory... it was even on Radio 1!

BRAVO!
