Not a cheap car though & there will be other makes that do the job equally well.
As Skoda have gone upmarket & mainstream over the years its a pity to see all the original small Skoda franchises with loyal customer base & personal service gradually pushed out in favour of the large corporate dealerships.
We are getting 67 mpg and 42 mpg towing, pay £0 Excise tax, 3 years free servicing, full valeting 4 times a year and O% finance. It also goes like the proverbial off a shovel.

The purpose of these tests is to see if they all do equally well. Very obviously they do not, hence the award.

So how would say, a Ford Mondeo or Vauxhall Insignia with similar engines tow the same caravan any worse? Whats your theory? Be specific here.
So bob what size boot does the Mondeo & the insignia have ??? And what size does the Octavia ,4x4 saloon have or are we talking estate ? Have please state because if it twice as big that must be massive
The op uses poetic licence, Skoda is the 2014 winner only in its class against mainly 1.6litre opposition. Towcar of the year overall winner 2014 is the Nissan Qashqai.

Something tells me that our resident troll RogerGoff does not own a Skoda
For god's sake "Roger", can you never give it a rest. You'd be such a valued member if you weren't such an idiot at times. Such a shame that someone with so much useful info to share, can also be so rude and argumentative and spoil so many threads. Oops, I fed him too, grrrr
