Skoda Kamiq (Monte Carlo) - REVIEW
Переглядів 30 тис.2 роки тому
Hope you enjoy this video on the Skoda Kamiq Monte Carlo. Apologies for the poor sound between approx 2 mins and 6 mins of the video. I was trialling out a new place to do my car reviews and whilst it did not seem that noisy whilst filming the videos, when it came to the editing there was a lot of background noise. Unfortunately I was unable to re-record it due to only having access to the car ...

    Rory, am I right in thinking this is a long wheel base car with an extra wide rear door? I’m asking because my ‘96 X300 needs the same treatment and I’m wondering if the headliner will fit through the door. I’ve read people taking out the windshield or rear windshield on the standard wheelbase car but am interested in your input. Very nice job, thanks for sharing.

    I just got one for a 4x4 beater. 148k miles when I got it. Around 148700 since I got it. We changed all the fluids after draining them, went through it so it could safely pass inspection. Needed new struts. Expensive fix there .

    Hello, I have a 2002 XJR and I absolutely love the detail of your video. I am going to, at some point, replace the radio with an aftermarket touch screen bluetooth capable replacement and feel that your video will be of great help. If I can ask, do you still own this car?

    I'm looking at buying something to replace my 8 year old Suzuki Celerio. Like the Picanto, it has a robotised manual gearbox. With mine, you can drive it in full auto-mode (this is how wifey drives) or in a semi-automatic mode where you can tap the gear lever up or down to select the gear you want. Is this how the Kia box works too? Before I bought the Suzuki, I owned a manual 1.0L manual Picanto but the previous model. I never really took to the car & was frankly glad to see the back of it. My gripes were the lack of space (fixed with newer models) & its fuel economy. I drive like the Pope's mother & try as I might, I couldn't get it to average more than 56 mpg. This was worse than the Daihatsu Sirion it replaced (62 mpg) & the Celerio (70 mpg). If you drive your Picanto really, really sensibly, what kind of mileage can you achieve or is 57 - 58 mpg the absolute best it will do? Thanks

    • @JamesLynchify
      @JamesLynchify 4 місяці тому

      I think the negativity is because it is basically an "assisted manual". There is a manual gearbox but there are parts doing the gear changing for you, hence no parking slot on the selector. I'm looking at a new one at the minute and trying to see videos of it in action

      Wifey bought her Toyota Aygo with a robotised manual gearbox in 2005 & it performed flawlessly for 11 years. She replaced the Aygo with a Suzuki Celerio, also with a robotised manual, in 2016 which has been brilliantly reliable. I liked the car so much I bought one for myself! Wifey drives her's uniquely in auto-mode. I tend to use mine mainly in manual-mode but if I'm stuck in slowly moving traffic, I'll flick it into auto to make things easier. Both cars happily return 70 mpg & have done consistently for the last 8 years...and of course that's the big advantage over a conventional torque converter auto.

    Just watched this again after watching many videos in trying to decide what car to go for. Your review really helped me make the choice as it was very in-depth but also understandable to a novice about cars. We had a Kodiaq and while it was an amazing car it got to the point where I just didn't need the size. Now have a Kamiq Monte Carlo and it really is a pleasure to drive (and look at :) ) - Thanks.
