Hello folks anyone know why the Republic of Ireland for example get’s far more standard spec than UK customers I mean they literally get all the good stuff lol…big Columbus screen… wireless charging …ambient lighting…matrix lights to mention a few and as standard….while we’re getting ripped off paying a fortune for optional extras…doesn’t seem fair??? Bit annoyed by this tbh 👍🏻

Because Ireland has the same trim levels as other EU countries, whereas NI and the rest of the UK import cars via Skoda UK.
VW Golf GT 1.9TDI from 11/98 to 3/06; Skoda Octavia L&K 2.0TDI from 3/06 to 12/11; VW Golf Plus SE 1.6TDI DSG from 12/11 to 2/15; VW Golf SV SE 1.4TSI DSG from 2/15 to 11/20; Skoda Karoq Sportline 2.0TSI 4x4 DSG from 11/20.

Yeah I know that buddy but why can’t uk do slightly better for its buyers for standard equipment that’s what I’m really asking lol even ambient lighting would be a nice touch….and even if you could add it optionally on its own but ya can’t it’s part of a near £1500 extra pack 👍🏻
