Actually from memory, the seat squabs can pull out making it completely flat which is why it doesn't do it. The big lip at the boot entrance is because you can put in that false floor and have flat loading as well.
Pull these down, take the head rests out (if the front seats are anything further than 1/4 back) and the rear seats turn into a completely flat floor... Which I've never done.
The one time I took something too long for the car, it fit through the hole in the middle where the armrest is.

I find it strange that Skoda puts all of these expensive features (the radar cruise control, auto high-beam, 9 airbags, etc) in the car, yet something as simple as a rear-view camera (standard on quite a selection of its rivals) isn't found at all on the new Octavia, let alone any new Skoda. I hate to reignite the rear camera debate, but the Octy II has terrible rear vision and a rear camera would have saved many bumps (for my mum) on our Skoda; where is it? Surely a rear camera is a must for families?
When discussing the Yeti, a Skoda salesman told me, (so make of it what you will), that the parent company, (VW Australia?) dictates what Skoda cars can and can't sell in Australia, and had refused to let Skoda have reversing cameras.
So the Tiguan can have one but not the Yeti. And yes, I know it sounds mad.

I know that VW Aus dictates everything about Skoda Aus, but you can't get a factory rear-view camera on any Skoda anywhere in the world. That's my beef with them.
I agree - this black and white badge does nothing for me
The green Skoda badge looks great and I presume has history
(Perhaps the green badge clashes with certain paint colours?)
The rapid is the (right) one that was hit by the ugly stick
I'd have to agree with martin. the Rapid's tail lights look too big in proportion to the rear, maybe even bigger than the octy. and looks kinda cheap without the bumper reflectors in comparison.

ohh no I like the new skoda emblem
its the font of the 'octavia' that I don't like as much as the MK2 FL font.
Downside, they haven't migrated the handbrake to the RHS of the console, like in current Octys. I'm going to have to grow a different shaped kink in my left arm...
Wonder if we'll get the DAB radio here?
