The ŠKODA 105 with a 1046 cc engine and the ŠKODA 120 with a 1174 cc engine were the two basic models of what was known in-house as the 742.
It was produced in various versions and changed over the course of the years. These changes did not only affect the chassis. From 1983, the 742 was produced, for example, with wider wheel spacing, rack-and-pinion steering, thirteen-inch wheels, plastic bumpers and other modernised elements.

Skoda
The origin of Skoda Auto goes back to 1895. Václav Laurin, a mechanic, and Václav Klement, book-seller, both shared a passion for bicycles. When Klement tried to get spare parts to fix is bicycle and wrote to the manufacturer in Czech, he got an unfawl reply asking him to write in a language they could understand. In that moment, the two Czechs founded Laurin & Klement and started to produce bicycles under the patriotic name: Slavia.
