MILTON KEYNES, UNITED KINGDOM – Oct 19, 2012: Respected consumer brand Which? has revealed the ŠKODA Yeti is the most reliable car in the UK.

In a survey completed by owners of 47,000 vehicles, the petrol-powered model ranked number one in the SUV/4x4 classes with a 98% reliability score. As that was the highest total of any class winner it was declared the overall champion. The Škoda Yeti diesel took sixth spot.

“All the owners who gave feedback in our survey said they hadn’t suffered a single breakdown in the previous 12 months, and annual repair bills averaged just £6 a year,” the Which? magazine stated.

Alasdair Stewart, Brand Director for Škoda UK, commented: “Reliability is at the heart of the ownership experience because what drivers value most is a vehicle that starts every morning like clockwork. Škoda has worked hard to make sure its cars are the best they can be and recognition from Which? is very satisfying.”
