Driving
Very nippy, handles motorways well. A little numb feeling though
Performance
Feels like a clock work toy, wind it up and it goes surprisingly well! Handles a bit like a go-kart.

Living with it
Reliability
Engine management light keeps coming on & dealer can't find fault. Hasn't had any effect on performance, economy or comfort.
Image
Just keeps on getting better.
Comfort
I'm 6ft 2 and a 6ft person can sit behind me, amazing in a car this size. I drive 200 mile trips regularly and have never had reason to complain. The stereo is a little tinny if I have to complain.

Security and Service
Security
No alarm, but it does have an immobiliser. Has anyone thought about trying to nick a Skoda yet?!
Service
Can't fix engine management light, but they're always helpful & are a decent price.
