I have seen a number of references to there being a Yeti facelift sometime in 2012. Does anyone have any idea when the build will change, and what the differences will be?
Thanks.

Hi the build year changes to my13 the end of this month, but not a face lift just a few changes to the current yeti.

I notice that Skoda are also changing their bonnet badge and loosing the "Skoda" word from it as seen of the new Citigo...

I believe the new badges will just be on the new models for the moment, they are not going to use them on the old models...

So the Yeti will probably get them when the mkII comes out in a year or so.

Hi, Thanks for the info. I have seen a pic with a Yeti wil different headlights which extend inwards over the fogs, and a different bonnetline which centrally intrudes more into the grille space giving it a 'cupid' look.

That was proved to be a photoshop idea from one of the European papers, and nothing to do with Skoda.

Looks like Skoda are facelifting the Yeti a bit:

I think it is good to see the basics of the shape are still there. I saw a picture of the Vauxhall version of the Yeti and it looks like the Kuga which looks most other versions of this type of car. The Yeti may be boxy but it is distinctive and different. Long may that continue.

Just as long asthey remember the old saying "If it ain't broke, don't fix it!"

Interesting colour scheme!

Looks like minor changes to me, which is good.
