Skoda Board Members Available for Interview

MLADA BOLESLAV, Czech Republic – February 13, 2009: You’ll have no doubt heard whispers of potential sightings of a Yeti at this year’s Geneva Motorshow…..and the rumours are true. Škoda is unleashing its fifth model line in wintry Geneva this year. It is based on the concept that was shown in Geneva in 2005, and when it sets foot in the UK it will compete in the crossover market.
