Simply clever

edit: Skoda is a brand I've literally only heard of (from here in Australia) because they advertise constantly on the Tour de France every year. Their tagline is burned into my brain.

This is neither a good nor a bad thing. It simply is.

They're nice practical cars and good value for money but a bit boring. I test drove a few recently but went for a faster VW Golf in the end because the Skoda's were a bit too bland. Same issue with Kia.
