Skodas used to be the butt of most motoring jokes ie - what do you call a skip with wheels? A Skoda! etc. They were bought by VW (I think) a few years ago and are now much better regarded but the name still carries the stigma of crapness.

Yep. Skoda and Lada were the two names mentioned whenever you talked about crappy cars. Nowadays, it's just Lada.

Re: Hey, all you european car owners/driver...

skodas are a car from the former czechoslovakia and where the butt of all jokes along with the russian lada's. Skoda was bought out by Volkswagen in the early to mid 90's and thus improved! I've also got a wonderful vauxhall omega best car i've ever had!!

This is the current Cheesemobile. Like I said, it's a company car so I either like it or lump it.

Let's not leave Trabant off the list of crappy cars.
