With the way things are going in Australia, I predict Skoda will be one of the smaller brands who will pack up and leave due to poor sales. IIRC they have already done this previously in the 1970's.
The brand has virtually zero recognition here and they are really nothing more than overpriced, rehashed VW junk IMO. Their appalling resale values confirm this.
Who would buy a Skoda when there is so much better out there for the money?

But if it was made in Australia, it would be the best thing since sliced bread. Unfortunately, your bias shines through every time and what it does is discredits what you say - even when you have a valid point.
