After the comunist take over, their cars fell being what is considered a normal level of western design/features/quality. But they were bloody well engineered, even if it was from cheaper materials. There is now a growing number of people looking for rear engined Skodas as second fun cars. Something basic, raw, cheap, and fun again, without endangering their license. -- Carl Robson The poster formally known as Skodapilot. http://www.bouncing-czechs.com
