I am interested in a Skoda Yeti as a towcar. As a 4x4 it seems very economical, relatively low on road tax but can pull fairly heavy weights. The 170bhp has a towing limit of 1800kg according to the brochure. Has anyone got any experience of a Yeti? Is it great - or abominable?!

The problem has been identified, and we are actively working on a resolution. There is no impact to user data or functionality, this is strictly a front-end display issue. We’ll post an update once the fix has been deployed. Thanks for your patience while we get this sorted.
Yeti!

hi alistair, apparently they are very elusive, i dont have any personal experience of them. however i am led to believe they leave quite a large footprint, which in these crazy days appears to upset some folks. good luck buddy, if its got the power and relevant wieght, then go for it 🙂
Hello Alistair,
Practical Caravan, December issue, did a comparison test with the Yeti 2.0 TDI 140bhp against a Peugeot 3008 HDi 150. It shows a towing limit of 1600kg, with a kerb weight of 1605kg, noseweight of 75kg. 85% of kerbweight = 1364kg.
The Yeti won the test and was given a good rating as a tow car. However I think you should also consider the Kia Sportage, offers higher kerb weight and is lower in price, I have just purchased a Titan model, but am still awaiting to take delivery in March, so cannot comment further.
Trust this is helpful
Best regards,
George
