Can it do multistorey car parks without scraping? I've got a steep driveway and am very glad for the 911's relatively good ground clearance!

Haven't tried yet - but no issues over speed bumps so far.

Bigger concern for car parks is the shocking turning circle - it's genuinely awful.

Skoda Kodiaq 1.5tsi 150bhp dsg sportline

Bit of a downgrade compared to my seat Leon Cupra but needs must now

150hp from a 1.5 in a ginormous tank? Does it get out of its own way alright? Haha

It’s got some poke, I was quite surprised myself, got 45mpg out of it on a motorway run at nsl. Hella comfy ride.

An upgrade in load capacity and child storage for sure. If thats all that matters.

Do the rear-most have isofix?
My Golf VII 1.4 150 wasn't particularly sprightly; can't imagine the Kodiaq is pokey with 150

More than you can afford, pal

Nice! Manual or floppy paddles?
