Skoda CITIGO launches with Stonehenge replica in London

The Skoda CitiGo – the Skoda version of the VW up! – launches this week in the UK with a replica Stonehenge made of scrap cars. It’s hard to come up with an original way of launching a new product, but Skoda have made a decent bash of it for the UK launch of the Skoda CitiGo – the Skoda version of the VW up!

Volkswagen Golf GTD Mk 7 revealed

The 2013 VW Golf GTD has been revealed ahead of a Geneva Motor Show debut with 181bhp, 67.3mpg and 109g/km emissions. The new VW Golf GTD get VW’s new 2.0 litre 4-cylinder diesel which offers an impressive 181bhp and a very decent 280lb/ft of torque, enough to get to 62mph in 7.5 seconds and on to a top speed of 143mph. The extra power (up 13bhp and 22lb/ft of torque) may mean better performance than the Mk 6 GTD, but it’s not at the price of poorer economy.

New Skoda Yeti Adventure Special Edition launched

The SkodaYeti Adventure Special Edition (pictured) gets £2,250 of extra equipment at no cost. The Skoda Yeti may not be the prettiest compact SUV on the block, but it’s a well-built soft-roader from the Czech car maker with a lot of appeal, particularly for families. So as we’re supposedly in the middle of summer – a dead time for SUV sales of any sort – Skoda are making potential buyers an offer they can’t ignore with the launch of the Yeti Adventure Special Edition, offering unique features and £2,250 of extra equipment over the Yeti SE.
