Back in 2006, we tested the Skoda Roomster - an unusual breath of fresh air that wrapped Volkswagen quality in a practical frock:
The hard-working 1.4-litre petrol engine cruised happily at 80mph, but a short fifth gear made motorway progress buzzy. Touring economy was a decent 42.1mpg, though.
Designed to cope with a 515kg payload, the firm suspension helped elicit both surprising agility and suppleness, complemented by accurate, well-weighted steering.-grade fit and finish. The front seats lacked a little support, but the roomy rear included two sliding and reclining outer chairs plus a fixed central seat and lots of storage options, though shoulder room was tight. The rear seats could be folded down or removed altogether to create a 1780-litre load space.
