I thing I'm having a funny spell.

Currently got an old Boxster S.

Now all of sudden I've fallen for a 1.2 DSG Skoda Yeti in Tangerine orange. Elegance trim naturally, with the full panoramic sunroof etc etc.

I want it bad... What's wrong with me?



Can't find any decent pics of it in the tempting orange hue. Anyone got any links?

I like the car. I'm not sure about a 1.2 though. The 1.2 isn't 4X4 is it?

Tangerine sounds like Tangmere. Topical. smile

They do the Nissan Juke in Orange. Shame about that rear bumper in the side view. It looks like one of those posterior dewlaps you get on some women, or possibly a haemorroid.

It's made in Britain. It looks like it's just driven out of the pod of Thunderbird 2.

I like the Juke. But just doesnt seem to have the integrity of the Yeti. Blimey, has it come to this. wink

Juke just looks odd, but the Yeti does have some appeal.

The Yeti seems more rugged and utilitarian. It seems more functional.

The Juke seems more Mini, StreetKa like pose wagon, but the last Micra handled speed 'cushions' well and Nissan do, or did havea technical facility next to Cranfield University.

1.2TSI? Is that the turbo with 105bhp? Not sure about the Yeti but we have a Fabia DSG on order with that engine. Current owners are reporting a good time with the thing. I suspect performancxe will be slower in the Yeti due to the extra weight but it isn't a bad car if you want something different - don't see many on the road but then Skoda can sell as many as they build so I suspect they will become more common as time goes on.

There's a pic. at a motor show of an Orange Yeti with two young women leaning against it. The one in the foreground has interesting muscle tone.

Uncle has a 2.0tdi 4x4 Yeti and he loves it! What you really want though is a Dascia Duster!
