Too bad Roomster experiences

The Skoda Roomster Monovolumen has been on the market since 2006 and is technically based on the Skoda Octavia and Fabia. Unlike its competitors, Renault Kangoo and the Škoda Roomster has no sliding doors. With the extended floor, the wheelbase has increased, and thus the car's interior. The rear seats are sliding, and the middle rear seat can be taken out so two passengers get extra space during the trip. When the rear seats are lowered, the boot volume is 1780 liters.

The Skoda Roomster is a sedan that provides plenty of comfort and space while driving. In 2010, the Škoda Roomster was redesigned, the front was changed, and so was the interior.
You can choose between three petrol and three diesel engines from the Skoda Roomster engine. The Entry level engine is a 1.2hp three-cylinder 70-liter gasoline engine - a suitable city engine with 6.6 liters consumption. A better choice is the 1.4-liter 85hp petrol engine. The strongest gasoline engine on offer is the 1.6-liter 105hp engine that is the only one available with the Tiptronic automatic transmission. Of the diesel engines we offer 1.4 TDI with 70 hp with 5,3 liters consumption. That same engine is also available with 80 hp and is not only more powerful but also more economical. The strongest diesel engine used in the VW group is vehicles 1.9 TDI engine, but it's quite noisy.
In terms of safety, the Skoda Roomster scored the highest in the Euro NCAP crash test for safety. Since 2009, six airbags (front, side and rear), ABS and stability control have been included in the standard equipment.
Although the body is elevated, the bends are less than expected. On the ride, it proved safe and predictable - ideal for a family car.
