The Škoda Type 742 and 746 is a family of rear-engined, rear-wheel drive small family car, produced by car manufacturer AZNP in Mladá Boleslav, Czechoslovakia between 1976 and 1990. The original models were the Škoda 105 and Škoda 120; a Škoda 125 variation arrived late in the production run. Engine sizes were 1.05, 1.2, and 1.3 liters, with late versions (135/136) using the new Favorit's engine being given the internal model code 746. Over two million were built in the type's 14-year production run. The range was facelifted in 1983 with a revised design and engine improvements, together with the introduction of a new, 1.3-liter version known as the Škoda 130. Further 1.3-liter models followed in 1987 with the Škoda 135 and 136. All 105/120/125 and 130 models known by their Škoda internal reference as Type 742, while the later 135 and 136 models are called Type 746. In the UK, the 105/120 models were known as the Super Estelle until 1984, when the face-lifted models were called Estelle...
