However, I was disappointed that they stopped making the Yeti.
They're unreliable where I'm from.
Otherwise, they make fabulous desirable cars.
My current car is a 1l 3-cylinder DSG Kamiq - which I am pretty happy with. Only complaint being the slow starting touch screen and the move away from physical buttons (e.g. for heated windscreen).
Over here it's only a matter of time before DSG inevitably fails.
Apparently, it tends to overheat when idling in traffic in D. This is also a problem in VW cars which uses the same gearbox.
It's a really hot climate where I live; I wonder if that's a factor.
The good thing is that Skoda/VW don't hesitate before replacing a failed gearbox (and then that one fails).
It's a lovely gearbox when it works.
I'm in Scotland, so it rarely gets above 20C and it quite often fairly damp - which presumably keeps the gearbox nice and cool :-)
Edit: We also very rarely sit in traffic, which might help as well.
