I'm sorry. I love Skoda, I love ours loads. The Citigo is a great little car for running about town and doesn't cost much to run, the Fabia is a nice little run-about come hot hatch, the Rapid and Rapid Spaceback are great small to medium size saloon/sedan hatchbacks, the Octavia is a great medium size saloon car for running about and school runs and quite sporty for when the kids are at home or school and you fancy dusting off some cobwebs, the Superb is a fantastic luxurious road badge for getting around in comfort and the Yeti is a great cheap SUV thats practical and efficient. The Roomster however looks like the designer of the front half and the designer of the rear half had a big argument and could decide how to proceed and decided to do their own thing and see what happened. I mean look at it, come on, it looks add and not in a good way. A guy at work has one and he likes how his wife can get in and out with little effort, thats it, seriously.

I liked the old Yeti (above), it's styling grew on me and I liked it. The new Yeti I'm not too keen on but I'm sure, like the old one, will grow on me over time.

I think it looks awesome! We don't get too many weird crazy cars over here because they're too afraid to take risks.

The Roomster II is due out next year to replace it and the replacement is more sedate styling wise and with the addition of the new corporate nose.

Still not bad, but the original blue car in the OP looks much cooler :)

I would probably wait for next years new Ford Transit Connect (with seats, not as a panel van like the image attached) over the Roomster or Roomster II.
