Skoda online magazine

[K1W1]

Did anybody else get a copy emailed to them in the last day or so?

I can't say that I'm a big fan of on line magazines I'd rather have a paper version but that seems to be the way the world is going.
It's good to see Skoda starting to reach out to customers and to attempt to keep them engaged.

Yep, I got mine last night, can t say I read it. Maybe when I m bored I ll get around to it. Triumph do much the same sort of thing but send a hard copy to your address, from New Zealand ?

Got mine yesterday. Wish there was a downloadable copy, maybe even just a pdf, just like the old Winding Road online mag. Then I could at least read it on my smartphone or something similar....

I noticed on the Skoda website the other day that there is now an owners section you can log into. I tried but none of my details worked. I sent them an email, then got a reply one asking for more address details, and then simultaneously got a call from Richmond Skoda/Audi asking for the same, so something is afoot. Haven't been sent that though.

I was just about to ask if anyone uses the Skoda Owners Portal on the Skoda webiste. I filled out all my details this morning and it didn't recognise the details. I'll send Skoda an email and see what they say.

They told me that would send me a login email after i gave them the details, either the system isn't active yet...or dealers aren't sending in all the info to Skoda HQ....I suspected the latter, as I have never been sent anything from Skoda since buying my car late 2008, no surveys, no nothing.

How do we apply for this online magazine, and also, what is in this Skoda Owners Portal section?

PM me your email and I will send you a link later tonight when I get home.
I don't know how you apply I assume they are just emailling addresses that were collected at the time of sale.

I got the same call. It was just a telemarketing call wanting to confirm the details they had on file.
In fact I did not give the girl who rang an email address (she didn't have one for me either) and I still got the magazine so the two events are not related I'm sure.

Shall do, thank you very much

I thought the magazine was good. A little disappointed by the program required to flick through it - its pretty clunky. I doubt thats a Skoda thing though, probably the marketing company they use to do the website.

I would be quite happy to get it in PDF format, hell, they should just use a converter to HTML and make it a link on their website.

It's a standard Flash animation which is common for on line magazines and catalogues. If you go to JB HiFi or Teds Cameras or Jaycar you will see exactly the same format used for the web versions of their catalogues.

I agree I'd rather have a PDF I could print if I wanted to.

I filled in the details for the owners portal thingy and have a user name and password. I can log in, but it just takes you back to the screen where you can update your details. Guess we will have to wait and see how it develops.
What I wouldn't mind on the site (or at a dealer for that matter) is some merchandise. May be a shirt or a hat or an umbrella so I can piss the subaru one off.

I really love the magazine and the survey afterwards. This is the care from Skoda that I've been wanting . Good on them I say. I'd love to see more, and more, and more!

I'll have to go and look at the Skoda web site, no email for me yet...
