wickey ◊ 2007-09-29 18:50	it was called Octavia Combi http://www.auta5p.eu/katalog/skoda/s_octavia_14.htm
Weasel1984 ◊ 2007-09-29 19:22	So had the same name like 'with windows', I think 'Estate' in UK.
wickey ◊ 2007-09-30 00:03	yep. as is written in text in link above - the versions without windows were made mainly for export to scandinavian countries, as there were lower taxes for such panel vans, than for classic estates.

I have a slight memory of these being sold in UK in early 70s (so close to film date) - very low numbers. However not sure of the name, but would have been Van in some way for us Brits to understand.
