    Do you have to pay VAG prices for servicing?

    150 quid just to change the oil (Oh, they do a bit more than that, but when I asked "what" the answer was silence).

    And they didn't even clean it (which the pug garage always did).

    When it's three years old, it's going to Kwik fit.

        Mine always got a wash and a hoover and I get to drive a nice courtesy car around for a day (I always make sure I insist I do NOT get an A2 though. Bloody horrid things)

          I don't pay for servicing. All part of the lease and all taken care of by the lovely Alice.

              The "power band"? Where's that then? I found the umbrella holder and the free umbrella?

                OMFG, my sister lives in Snettisham and in my experience from visiting Hunstanton is the biggest tuliphole on the Norfolk coast, almost as bad as Great Yarmouth. If you had any class you would have got a nice cottage in Blakeney or Wells...

                  Yeah the quality is in favour of Skoda, usually top 10 in what car, when VW Audi often fail to make to top 20. They also break down less than VWs

                  The court heard Darren Upton had written a letter to Judge Sally Cahill QC saying he wasn’t “a typical inmate of prison”.

                  But the judge said: “That simply demonstrates your arrogance continues. You are typical. Inmates of prison are people who are dishonest. You are a thoroughly dishonestly man motivated by your own selfish greed.”

                    Taxi drivers have a reputation in buying the most reliable and economical. Skoda comes out tops with them
