Are Skodas built in Britain?

In your British Built list of cars I have noticed that you do not list Skoda, why is this?

I brought my Yeti in 2014 because I was told it was British built. I am thinking of getting the new Skoda Kodiaq next year and am informed that it will also be British Built. Is this correct?

You are being lied to. No Skoda is British built, nor was any Skoda ever British built.
