Welcome to the new look VWWatercooled

After much work and little sleep there is a new version of the forums running on more powerful and recent hardware as well as an upgraded software platform.

Things are mostly the same, but some things are a little different. We will be learning together, so please post questions (and answers if you've worked things out) in the help thread.

The new forum software is an upgraded version of what came before, it's mostly the same but also a little different. Hopefully easier to use and more stable than before. We are learning together here, so please be patient. If you have questions, please post them here. If you have worked something out and can provide an answer,

    worth a try

    Sounds like they will use the new engines and components coming out of "made in China" plants and price the car to compete with the Yaris and Tida's. It could work. Judging from the increase sales numbers for VW and Audi over the last couple years, I think the German/European brands is becoming increasingly trendy nowadays as self expression, image and uniqueness is a big part of popular culture now.

      Not sure about it ? Toyota, KIA and Hyundai are still cheaper but I would like to think it will sell OK. Feedback from UK is all good with Skodas in top 5 recommended cars with least problems..... heck even beat Golf

        The RS looks a bit like the lovely ugly duckling. It's all going to come down to $$$'s. If they enter as a cheap diesel variant they might stand a chance considering the take off of diesel here. Time shall tell.

          skoda

          I think the quality should be ok. There is along history of quality metal work in the area of the Chek Republic that the Skodas are built in and hopefully that is reflected in the product that we will see here. Remember very little of the product we see here is produced by the sweat of German brows.
