The Skoda has separate, physical climate control knobs. Driving a car is so much nicer when the controls are intuitive.

Well, at least it’s not another SUV. Pity about the gargantuan iPad glued to the dashboard.

I don’t usually comment on videos but I felt like doing it here. There is something in the lens colour filter you use that makes your videos look really nice and high quality! Or maybe it’s just the time of day you film at which makes the lighting so great. Lovely review as usual - DR has such an easy charm in front of the camera. The test car’s body colour looks beautiful!

Would be handy if you could mention noise levels and refinement at high speeds

When I worked at VW Dealer, we rang the newby saleswoman, pretending to be an undertaker, and asked her if a body would fit in load area of Passat estate, Got her to lay down in the load area to check. When i had one has company car, the amount of "weekend" test drives it was needed for, only to find on Monday morning seats down, and some polystyrene balls, where someone had collected fridge/freezer etc. Still a great car. Diesels are the only engine to choose though.

Prefer the exterior of the VW and interior usability of the Skoda

[olicair]

Maybe in uk no dizel, but in balkan there are 2 dizel. 2.0 TDI with 150 and 190 HP

Praise the regular buttons on the steering wheel, shame about the touch buttons on the dash. Still a lovely car and I would have one if I bought brand new!! Great review.

I’ll stick with my 2013 Exec for now. I just love her! ❤

Save your cash and get the Skoda Superb instead.

[MalcolmKerr]

Nice colour. Finally not only gray black or white

[gandyo]

I liked this guy when he played Stuart in big bang theory

[nicotang]

Here in Austria it costs fully almost 70k€...

[MiniEggs]

Please review Superb 4x4 petrol L&k trim circa 50k how close does it get to no extras spec 5 series/E class / A6

[shanewaller]

It's got the same steering wheel as my 2022 204 t32 highline volkswagan transporter .possibly because it's better than those touch sensitive buttons.

[alessandrohudson]

God save the SWs!! Really, it's the best option ever!! Look this shape, these wheels, this color (I rather the blue one 😅), is definitely beautiful and for sure pleasant to drive. Now I'm going to my bathroom cry in the shower for know that we no longer have it here in Brazil.

The 2003 edition is better, with a diesel engine, and less nonsense. Why do these companies always make every new product just slightly worse each release?
