A rust bucket
I passed this car onto my wife as I found it to be uncomfortable and she likes it. Generally it runs well but has needed springs at only 45k, and poor quality components are now starting to show up. The main problem is they keep the prices down by using cheap paint which leads to rust, mine is corroding very badly at only six years old. They will not cover this under the 12 year corrosion warranty as they say it is the paint and that is only covered for three years. I was fooled into buying a Skoda by the hype and marketing, now I have one I realise why they are so cheap. Never buying one again and would only recomend one to an enemy.
