Many thanks for the kind comment, much appreciated

Excellent straightforward review of the Skoda Kamiq and very well presented. I will certainly look out more of your reviews.

love your reviews AJ! I've spent last month checking out Skoda Kamiq and Seat Arona have tried both and checked out with a fine tooth comb spec info and today signed up for the Skoda Kamiq! 2020 1.5 TSI SE L DSG my age? - 67 female - remember everyone wants the best! Thank you for your great reviews 😊 xx

Out of all the reviews I've watched, this is the only one that I've found down to earth enough for our needs, simple, to the point, no messing around and exactly what most of us are looking for, thank you, sub'd and liked :)

Picked one up today from new, absolutely lush to drive .

Nice review. The dip beam you mention is really for when the load weight varies

best review ive seen so far

What a brilliantly informative and engaging review. Thank you. I agree with others, definitely the most useful Skoda Kamiq review on KZread (and I have watched many!) I have just reserved a 1 previous owner 2020 SE L and looking forward to driving. Thanks again.

nice car just ordered my monti carlo , great review

It's an excellent video .

Excellent review, comprehensive and sensible. I've been impressed with Skodas I've been in, comfortable and solidly built. Intending to keep my 10 yr old diesel C class Merc until I stop driving, but if had to change one of these or an Octavia estate would be a tempting choice.

update on my skoda kamiq it should arrive this month (dec 22) really cant wait now been along time and can finally send the ford focus back to motability as it been a pig from around 8 months old with back to dealership 9 times for things wrong, maybe a friday 4pm made car. love all the videos with some slide remarks sarcasum thrown in .

Great review of the skoda kamiq ive ordered one but the 1.5 se drive so 9.2 screen. Ive also watched the skoda skala review but opted for the kamiq. Keep the great reviews up.

I went to look at a used Skoda Scala recently and ended up with a 69 plate Skoda Karoq 1.0 SE with the Skoda approved used car two year warranty. These Skoda SUVs really are brilliant practical cars. Ideal for my elderly parents who have mobility issues. Only small issue I have is the 1.0 TSI feels a little underpowered in the Karoq. I live in a hilly area(Sheffield) and it struggles sometimes.

@@BassistPaul Just bought one and pick it up next week, definitely worth a test drive. We found the 1.0 DSG actually felt slightly more responsive than our 1.5 DSG Karoq that it'll be replacing, also despite hearing how roomy it was especially in the back we were still pleasantly surprised, I'm 6ft3 and there's ample room for a tall adult behind me

Had the 1.0L 110 DSG. Done 7.5k mixed miles in 8 months. MPG more like 45-46 and I'm very soft on the accelerator. Great car.

Great review, lovely looking car. Just a note on your comment on the warranty though and the VW group. I`ve owned a Passat since new 9 years old full service history and still running well, but I`m currently arguing with them over their anti corrosion warranty. I`ve got rust on both front wheel arches which is fairly common on these cars owing to the design. VW are not interested, which rather defeats the purpose of offering the warranty in the first place. Maybe if reviewers like yourself highlighted the reluctance of manufactures to honour their commitment to purchasers people would have more faith in their products.

Nice review. Loads of VW touches. I was tempted by the Karoq at one stage until they stopped producing the auto version in the UK. Went for the Tiguan instead and no regrets. Keep them coming.

Apologies, looks like the Karoq is now available with DSG gearbox in the UK. May have been a temporary measure to stop supplying UK because of delivery issues.

What color is that, the regular blue or the sport blue ?

this car has an umbrella in the door!!!

Just ordered one of these through Motability. After 14 years of driving only Fords and Vauxhall's. Looking forward to the change.

I've always had a soft spot for Skodas. I always liked the quirky look of their Eastern European styling before they were bought by VAG. What he failed to mention is Skoda were actually a prestige car company before the communists got their hands on them. If I make it to Prague, I'm definitely taking a trip to the Skoda museum.

I noticed he was praising the automatic gearbox on the 1.5 litre engine but I have never read anything but criticism from car magazines etc for VAG auto gearboxes.Would consider this car if I could be confident of the auto gearbox

I've had a Golf R DSG and a Karoq DSG, there's a big difference between the 2, the Golf was generally excellent although it could've done with a setting in between normal and sport. In comparison the Karoq is a bit jerky pulling away and 'quirky' in its choice of gears when you put your foot down sometimes, but I personally wouldn't say it's a show stopper (then again I'm not an expert when it comes to cars and I've only had a VAG auto for just over 3yrs in total)

Depends on your region, but I can answer for Germany - yes, heated seats are standard in the Monte Carlo trim level (and in fact even in some lower trim levels).

It’s an awful shame the diesel is no longer available
