Its actually around 13k compared to 30k golf

Cheers Andrew!

Damjan Tasevski 30k? What world do you live in

Odd placement in their lineup though. The equivalent Skoda to those is the Fabia. Equivalent to Golf and Leon is the Octavia. It's sort of a bridge between with give and take either way.

This is actually shot in and around Baška Voda, look at 7:14 the port authority

Boris Stojnev its only 50 km away, dealership is porshe Split

What a beautiful place.

Not really possible on launches sadly. Manufacturers will only take the ‘best example’ of the cars they have. See our Kia Sportage video, however, for a review on a low-spec car that’s on the manufacturer press fleet.

@@ParkersTV I know it isn't your fault when you do it on launch events but you could push manufacturers into doing it. On a premium product it doesn't make sense, but on value oriented propositions I think that it is most logical. Few of us in Portugal are going to spec a Scala with adaptive dampers, it's unrealistic! Thanks for your reply!

You are 100% correct!

Colin Renfrew Look at the price and you will reconsider. This is not a Ford Focus, Mazda 3 or Golf by any means (except for boot space) but its price is up there

Croatian coast - Split and southwardly, I suppose.

as he said... it's a different system all together, even tough quite similar.

Sorry for the late reply, Mark! As the commenter says, it will be a different system on the new Golf.

Here's the truth: Golf 1790 mm Scala 1793 mm Astra 1809 mm Megane 1814 mm Focus 1844 mm I'm not able to find 9 cm difference between Scala and Megane. Scala is based on the same MQB A0 platform as Polo, Ibiza and Arona but at same time it's over 10 cm longer than VW Golf.

VW Polo long

You could probably get 2 Scalas for the price of Mazda 3

Djent Leman Actually no... Look at the price of the car with decent specs

@@bourka87 Not really. Thing with the Mazda 3 is if you would put all the options in other car brands/models which are standard in the Mazda, the 3 is actually cheap in comparison. Mazda 3 is a good option if you were planning to get more functions/luxury anyway just not if you want a stripped down entry level car.

In your opinion mate 😉 I have the Seat Leon FR 2017 , and it looks briliant ,better than any skoda,VW,,and it drives better than any Skoda ,even better than the Golf on which is based ,believe me,I work for British Car Auctions,I Inspect and drive 500+ cars every year since 2015,so imagine how many cars I drove over the past few years, 3 cars every day,I drive long distances 350+ miles every day,and last car of the day I take it home,and last car of Friday keep it over the weekend so a lot of time to inspect them properly and play with,so yeah ,I pretty much drive all tipes of vehicles,new models,everything ,from VW Golf to Bentley's..and from VAG group, the car that made me love it is the Seat Leon..why? Well because the way it drives and the way it looks,in my opinion it's just beautiful, sporty,aggressive, but at the same time very practical, and the steering, the brakes,the solidity of the chassis ,the stability on the road ,it's glued on the road,made me love this car and buy it ..and believe me,since I bought the car at 20.000 miles from and old man with disabilities that barely drove that car ,I had absolutely no problem with it,just service oil,filters,brake pads,that's it,no issues at all.. Anyway, at the end of the day, the looks of a car it's just a matter of taste ,everyone likes different designs, dont get me.wrong, I like Skoda aswell, very good solid cars ,and I like the Octavia and the Karoq, but in my opinion, Seat looks better than any skoda.. Cheers 👍

Skoda's design is sooooo boring. It was a shame they didn't keep the design closer to the skoda Vision RS in which is based, since it was beautiful. Hope the RS version gets a little bit closer.

@@SuperLisandro86 it's just simple..

The Leon looks better but I bet the scala has a better interior and will last longer. Usually Seats are not that well built

@@TheAllMightyGodofCod wrong ..these new ones are really well built

Split, Croatia.

Split, Croatia.

Americans

@@jordyvanroon3783 Or maybe people who don't want to stop on the side of the road every time they want a sip? "Oh no convenience"

this car has those features as options or standard on SEL

Sandi Rusijan Skoda is a very reliable brand. My dad had a fabia for 6 years without any problems

this is actually on pourpose, as škoda is specificaly striving for a hatchback/estate hybrid in this case.

bd yeah i know it’s on purpose, i got that it’s what they were gunning for but to me, it’s too small for that kind of design aesthetic to work.

Thanks for that. I have an electronic one in my Qashqai. It's a PITA as it holds for too long when I am trying to get away ....

@@markloughtonUK Nothing should hold you back from getting away from Qashqai ownership

But i think Focus is winning now in this class till golf 8 doesnt arrive... Now focus is the best at all aspects

Android Auto is available, sorry if that wasn’t clear in the video!

@@ParkersTV you were. They Obviously didn't pay attention

No, I agree with you too!

it's ironic because every engine available was slow AF.

@@OnfireProjects it's not toough, since it is actually named after a long-gone model of the brand... It's not named after speed, it is named after an older car...

OnFireGames The 1.4 tsi is quick tho Around 8.5 sec to 100 ,and top speed of 220 , so I don’t know what you talking about

Are you sure? 😜

Parkers Cars Yes because they are built on the same platform just as the Seat Leon is also built on the Golf

@@petternilsson1155 Fabia, Polo, Ibizia, A1 ... Scala (and Octavia I believe), Golf, Leon, A3

malcolm campbell Do not like the Golf, still think the Scala is still a bad idea. Get a Focus, Mazda 3 or heck even a 308.

You don't own earphones?

Foto4Max In the boot yes. In every other way its just a much worse car. Not a bad one kind of superfluous. If you want a Skoda get an ocatvia
