Finbarr Galvins have one in the Bandon forecourt if anyone wants to see one in the flesh and they should have one available for test drives in the next week or 2.
I have to say these cars are bigger than I was expecting.

More MPV than SUV

Looks nearly twice the size of the kodiaq beside it. Which would be MPV.

I think that's the Karoq beside it.

90% sure it’s a Kodiaq. The enyaq certainly is a big car.

It's the Kodiak, from what I could see they are almost identical in size.

I don't believe VW or Skoda are doing 0 percent on all models..

Doesn’t usually happen on brand new models - tends to come in after the initial rush has subsided. Think it’s 2.9% on ID though which isn’t bad.

0% on some ID3 models.

The Kodiak is far away.

Stuck between this and and Audi Q4.
Q4 is a lot more money (about €13k like for like) but I’m getting a better trade in value on my Q5 from Audi , so difference is approx €9k for cost of change.
Enyaq looks ok but Q4 is a stunner , especially the interior .
Brain says Enyaq, heart says Q4.

If you're coming from an Audi I'd recommend sticking with them. The premium feel that comes with the Audi tactile interior is not replicated in the skoda - even though they are both VAG.

That and the premium badge.

Pulled the pin on the Audi Q4. Cost of change was very good with the grant .should be coming in in June .

This was in the garage today when I was picking up my ID3, smashing looking car, much nicer on the inside than the ID4.

Indeed much nicer interior. But then vice versa with the exteriors in which the ID 4 beats it lol

Nice interior but that black grill looks crap. I like the Colour.

Depends what you are into..l think this looks more aggressive. Which I like

The ID4 looks dated on the outside. Looks quite like the Hyundai Ix35 in some ways.

Indeed the grill is brutal. That and the rear of the Enyaq put me off going for it. Just too MPV Minivan ish for me

I seen on a video that the grill lights up in some countries but I don’t think that option is available here.

If VW could just put the enyaq interior into the ID 4 we’d be laughing

They're both white... That's about where the similarity ends. The ch-r looks more like the id4. Can hardly say it looks dated. I'd go the opposite. I think the id4 looks modern while the enyaq looks like any other SUV out there.

Are you serious?
It was like the id4 designers got the clay model of the ix35 and added a few bits here and there.

Are they out yet?!? Could of sworn one past me last night. It's a sizeable beast on the road.

You can’t buy one until after the 1st July I think but yes they are appearing at dealers all over the country.

I'm not getting any ix35 from the ID4, both cars are similar but I prefer the cleaner looks of the ID4

that grill is just horrible on the Enyak, I believe Skoda said it was to ease the transition from Ice to EV easier for People by making it more traditional looking, WTF ? lol the bloody grill is hideous!

I agree! But I can see where this comes from. There's an owner near me who drives a white e-Niro. He's put black vinyl on the grille area to make it look like an ordinary Kia.

But sure, we saw it here with people putting black vinyl on the nose of the Ioniq classic in the early days.

Well the grey/silver grill on the Ioniq did look terrible. The colour combo just didn't work.

The grille across the board on the Skoda range is terrible. It could be worse, it could have the Rathkeale special light up grille which is even more hideous.

Certainly on our black Ioniq it was the exact opposite reason, I wanted ours to be body coloured which made the car much more sleek. I wonder what an enyaq would look like with body coloured vinyl instead of that monobrow?

I saw a red one on the road on Saturday on N7 inbound to Dublin. It's a big enough car! quite surprising

Are they delivering the cars to customers already?

robbie_63

Hi Folks,

Has anyone here ordered an Enyaq?

Went around on Saturday with the Mrs to test drive a few cars as we are looking to change her Discovery Sport,

Test drove the ID4 first which was lovely but the dealership had the new enyaq also so we had a look at that too,

We felt the Enyaq was a bit bigger inside and would be better for 3 kids,

Mrs preferred the look of the enyaq and the interior as it was more like a normal car, we both felt the ID4 was a bit fiddly but I'm sure you get used to it in a few minutes.

So has anyone got any info on what the lead time is? Dealer said no problem getting stock but wouldn't actually say how long that was!

Would be looking at the 60 Standard Spec with probably tinted windows and the nicer wheels but i'd say thats it

Cheers

R

So much for that "limited stock" "ever car has a pre booking deposit down" marking craic they were banging out a few months ago.

Hard to know for sure, spoke to another dealer this morning and he said all they had to sell was the few demo models they were getting in, said it would be November if we wanted to order one ourselves.

I suspect he was just pushing us towards the demo stock he had with the €5k worth of extras that we don't need..

What price were his demo IV60 & IV80?

Are the demos full price? Will you qualify for the car grants etc?

No idea yet they are to come back to Mrs in the next few days,
She has just managed to sell her own car today

Has anyone got any good deals for a straight purchase without trade in?

Birka

Has anyone who registered for a test drive had one yet?

Since when do you have to register?

Mrs just visited 3 different dealers and was offered a test drive every time without any appointment

You don’t have to in the normal scheme of things but Skoda Ireland recently sent an email to anyone who had previously registered an interest, inviting them to request a test drive.

I’m not in a hurry to test drive/buy but just curious about the process.

jspuds

I had a test drive today in a IV60 & was very impressed overall.
Will take an ID4 out next week to compare.
Only downside for me is the car feels very big on the road and that is coming from a Seat Ateca.

Details embargoed until June 7th but here’s the car I’ve filmed!

Wow looks lovely, the grey is really nice and that car has a lot of options ticked!

traco

These look very interesting - are there any finance deals on them? the 60 would be adequate for our needs I think. Did a quick run through the configrator and came in at 48k. Not entirely sure what that gets as I didn't have time to really dig into the packs. Don't think it has leather as it was the lofgt interior.

Config:
metallic, loft interior (whatever that is??), Driver assist plus, drive soprt pack and Infotainment pack, 100kW Charging, 3 yr warranty
47k

ELM327

That's a lovely looking car, but I'd want to have the 80 spec with a few extras (including such extras as 100kW charging) and i fear that might push it over the 60k where you get the grant

robbie_63

Depends on your requirements I guess, we went for the 60 as you should get around 200-250 miles which is plenty for us

traco

If it was me it would be the 80 but for herseld the 60 would be fine. I see they are offereing 4.9% APR on PCP
