One upon a time, the only drivers who could enjoy the luxury of staying dry between journeys were owners of luxury vehicles. No longer is this the case, as Skoda have rolled out in built umbrellas in yet more of their vehicles.

An on-board umbrella has been keeping Skoda Superb owners dry since 2001, however Skoda has now made the decision to include it as standard on many more of their models. So far, these include the Citigo, Fabia and Octavia, and all trims for these upwards of the SE versions. The umbrellas are mounted in the doors of the cars, and will come as standard in SE versions and above for Fabia and Citigo models. Octavia drivers can access the super-British commodity for £25 extra on the car s asking price.
