I purchase the car from JMD skoda Mumbai in Oct 2011and since then it been close to 5years i have been using and done 70000kms. It is 4x4 ambition model mfd 2011. It is a very powerful car 2ltrs engine (1968cc) rock steady in driving in all kinds of roads in city , highway i have done little bit of off road too , steady drive wheel , you will feel the power both in climbs and flat road , no jerking and good suspension. Fuel economy of 14/15kms is really good for a 2ltr diesel engine. The exterior are little old fashion European style - broad wheel base with alloy steel but the spare Tyre come with normal for car which was 18lacs + those days it is too unfortunate that skoda will try and cut corners on these things. The AC is front is fine - but no auto control even the steering wheel does not the any control of Multimedia player - may the current version have it ! This is solid car if you are self driving the rear seats are not comfortable and the ACs do not function - in fact with the first 10-11 months i had gone JMD kandivalli service center - they tried every thing to the extent of replacing the AC compressor ( free) and kept the car with them for service for 2 weeks as it was defective but it improved only 20% , they too finally gave up. The annual service bill will be approx 24-25k except for the 1st year. Even the seating of 3 adults in rear is issue as the AC vent in middle of rear will cause discomfort. The boott is spacious the rear seats are adjustable and foldable in case if you want sleep in long outdoor camp Excellent driving comfort even after 300kms of non stop driving in fact you will not feel tired it is extremely easy to maneuver. The Tyre will last around 45000-50000km and the need to be replaced - even you gear box will last approx 60000kms and the need to change the clutch kit and fly wheel which will cost approx 80k. It is once year maintenance or after 15000kms will cost you approx 24k. If you are doing 80-100kms on daily basis self drive and want a powerful stuff then this is good option - not good for families and rear travelers. The skoda services needs to improve in India - like 24x7 helpline, customer care, my experience have not been good - in fact i found out the service center better like in JMD Skoda in Mumbai though they will try to extract as much business from you but will advice the right thing i found the same in Mahavira Auto Hyderabad where i have recently relocated from Mumbai. It may be because when i go for my vehicle repairs or maintenance i strike a chord with service engineers etc - but most customer complains. I will probably use the current Vehicle as i like the power and sturdy attitude of this car and my average run daily is around 80kms - may be i will use it till 150000kms which is another 4 years -i am sure it will survive till then with quality maintenance. .

Look and Style: I know many people will find the styling to be quirky but personally am a huge fan of the styling of this urban SUV. There is something uniquely European about its styling and I totally love it. Comfort: 10/10 for comfort. The driver's seat is excellent but I simply love sitting in the back and being driven by my chauffeur. The back seats are more comfortable than my Beamer (thats a personal opinion). Pickup: Well. It's an SUV of sorts. Don't expect lightning speeds but I am comfortable with the 140 horses under the hood. Goes fast when you need it to. Mileage: Gives a decent 13 kmpl. Best Features: I like it as a whole. Needs to improve: Hard to say. It's a good drive and our desires seem to be endless. It's just perfect the way it is. Overall Experience: 9/10, I will deduct a point for Skoda after sales service. Otherwise, I am totally in love with this car.

I own a Skoda Yeti Elegance. Bought it in December 2010 and have driven it 80,000 km in the two years. I love everything about the vehicle. The fact that it doesn't stand out, the fact that it handles like a dream, the fact that it sure is peppy and great fun to drive, and the wonderful 'moving fog lamps' for hill driving. I have owned quite a few cars but this has to be the best I've owned by far. Even using the jack is so easy!  Some cons: I feel that the ground clearance of 185 mm is a little too low, 200mm would be ideal. The tyres feel a little small and last for about 50,000 km. The stop & go driving off only in the 1st gear is a little frustrating at first (for all of us who are used to picking up in the second gear). When I spend 18 lakhs on a car, don't be cheap by giving me 4 alloys and a smaller size Stepney. Give the Stepney also on a 16 alloy. The Killer drawback: Skoda's selection of dealers. I've been to the guys at Haldwani and Chandigarh and they are equally inefficient, rude and high-handed. If I sell my car it will be only because of faulty service.  (once they spoilt my driver door console during washing and made me pay, then they took 2 months to diagnose and replace a defective AC compressor.

 Look and Style: A bit unconventional. But the boxy look from the rear grows on you while making for good visibility and storage. The Range Rover is not a great looking car at first glance too.    Comfort: Five in comfort including one minor, four adults in style. Oodles of space for luggage.    Pickup: Very good. The peppy engine and the assuring drivability of the car makes handling a dream even in the congested and potholed city that Bangalore has now become. Handles better than a much smaller car in city traffic.    Mileage: Min 10 kmpl in traffic described above where the car is being driven at third gear or lower 90 percent of the time. Of course with A/C on.  Best Features: Great fit and finish, exteriors as well as interiors, solid feel to the car indicative of good build quality, user friendly dashboard with a nice MFD, thoughtfully engineered steering mounted controls, reassuring safety features, exciting driveability. Sounds like the car brochure but it's all true.    Needs to improve: Hear things about the poor after sales service. Would be a pity if it were true. Skoda, you have made what is perhaps the best car on the Indian roads at the moment. Hope you will protect and cherish it.    Overall Experience: A great all round motoring experience. Was a bit apprehensive before I bought the vehicle thinking of the two lakh price differential, the perceived lower resale and alleged poor after sales service. The last is correctable, the first is not significant as it initially appears to be if you analyse all aspects of the car (don't forget the driving experience and enhanced safety features). About resale, who knows. At this point, I am too busy enjoying the car. I do not believe that can a true all round motoring experience would fail to hold its value. Do go for it and maybe get a drive assure package initially as a safety net till you know the Yeti better.  

Needs to improve clutch Overall Experience Clutch is very senstive for skodas . Engine stalls  at stop and go trafic, very often with slow city drive.It takes a while to get used to skoda clutches. Great car and fun to drive in hilly roads,  it is very torquey and  u can feel the road grip  and a car like  drive  for an suv. service in kerala  by marakar is not good. skoda has to look for new delares IN  KERALA
