Skoda was the brand we'd take the piss out of in the early 90s.

I wonder if 2030s kids will be laughing at their friends being driven to school in a clapped out Model S, with half the panels falling away, one door a slightly different colour to the rest, and a battery that goes maybe 40 miles, going "Ahhh, your mum drives a Tesla!"

Skoda's and Lada's were the classic cars to rip people for having. Communist junk. VW really did a LOT to rehabilitate the Skoda image.

Some Skodas are better looking than their VW brothers. Especially the crossovers.
