On the road
Driving
If you remember that it is an MPV, then it drives quite well
Performance
This 1.9 TDI engine is a wonder, only grip is the turbo lag from a standstill, cruising ability and fuel economy continues to surprise me as both are improving wiith age

Living with it
Reliability
Air-con has broken down twice, but we think this is a VW fault, as it was also unreliable in previous Skoda, otherwise almost faultless in 50k

You don't buy one of these for image
Comfort
We have the six seat option, each seat had full recline and arm rests, legroom is good for all, but the tallest.
