2.0 TDI CR 150ps Scout 4X4 5dr Estate

Good value for money and it does what it says "on the tin"

General: Purchased new for just under 25K. Almost 3 years old now and no issues. Performs excellent (quite quick actually). Cruises comfortably at 70mph and above, returning up to 65mpg on long motorway journey's according to the computer. I have not calculated it myself yet. 4x4 works great on slippery grass slopes and muddy tracks. Great Boot/Storage and good for 4 adults and a child.

Infotainment System; My car has the Standard Unit which works very well, Hands free phone via bluetooth/usb is good and simple to operate without any distractions. Music/sound is good, via an extra slot for your SD music card or usb device. SATNAV works well with many options for programming. Updating the Map's is a challenge so I had it done by the Dealer as part of the Service. (after all it has got a Skoda part number and should be fit for purpose).

Servicing: 'small service' at £159,= after 10K miles. 'big service' at £229,= after 20K miles. or there about, depends a little on your driving environment and the cars computer. the difference? well apart from the £70,= nothing more than the extra screw and pollen filter . Very difficult to find out what the servicing requirements are, how often, and based on what, miles or date???? My car is now due a HALDEX Oil change, ( but not filter???) based on TIME. HALDEX Oil needs to be changed after 3 years. I do not agree with that, I think it should be based on usage, but he....Also after 3 years Brake Fluid requires replacing. So I will have it done before the 3year warranty is up, and same with the MOT.

Looks; I think the car looks nice in Metallic Mist Blue, raised slightly higher than the standard estate (about 4cm). with black cladding, for and aft under bumper protection and it comes standard with under car drive -train and sump protection.
