Driving across the new forest to pick up a new car tomorrow morning, not for myself but for Mrs Smartbear.
We’ve encountered some local flooding since we moved here (I rodded the drains in the lane at Xmas as our road was closed due to the amount of water)
Ann was worried as when we drove through it in her mini the bow wave was going over the bonnet

Picking up a Skoda Yeti in red with 7k miles

Sorry to hear about that Rob. It's a shame that parts of Somerset do seem prone to suffering from flooding.

Still the Yeti bonnet will be a fair bit higher up than a Mini bonnet! I just hope Ann likes it, as it's quite a change.

Supposed to be tough vehicles bear, should see you through many a flood mate

To be honest Ann rarely drives, both cars belong to me really

TheYeti and the bear, in perfect harmony, romping down a country lane near you?

So long as she drives home from the pub that shouldn't be a problem!

Great car the Yeti had one for nearly two years now and hopefully replacing it for a karoq in a couple of months it’s the only car I’ve had for years that I’d like to keep (apart from the zed) longer but as a lease car it must go back

Hi Hopz, not planning on any off road forays so have gone for the 1.2 dsg variant (cambelt drive 211 version)
It runs very smooth & you can’t feel the gears shifting, very pleased

I thought you might have gone for something like this on the Somerset levels
