New Superb

[Rick101]

Went to have a look at the Suberb. Nice car but I'm not a fan of how the bonnet fit, or should I say doesn't fit.

Is this some designers wet dream? Why would you want a bonnet that doesn't fit the car? I can see from a distance it created the lines of the car but close up it just looks ridiculous.

I test drove one and was happy enough with it dynamically. Couldn't get over the Skoda "nose" on the bonnet though. Bought a Passat instead. Essentially the same car with no daft nose.

Happy with mine including the bonnet.

Never really noticed it. Done 3,000 miles in mine and it's been..................Superb...!

Well mine is due for delivery at the end of the month and I have not even seen one in the flesh yet From what I hear / read I don't think I will be dissapointed even if it does have a "funny nose"

No it's a great motor. It's a lot softer sprung than my Scout was but its very confrtable. Can't believe how much tech it has compared to 5 years ago.

Makes me smile every five I drive it ?

It's also HUGE inside.

And I bought the estate so may come in handy as a spare bedroom for guests.

Yeah me too :-) have to say though that the rear passenger space is what's impressed most people.

Get yourself a set of Stainless pedals from skodadop or superskoda. They also sell a handy rubber mat that covers the transmission tunnel.

Theirs a map update just come out for the Columbus so grab yourself a 32gb sad card in preparation.

Had a call from the dealer....car is in the UK docks somewhere.....7 -10 days and it's mine

Have to agree on the space. Enormous.

Anybody miss the twin aperture boot?

I'm about to order a mk3 2.0 TSI (220hp) DSG Superb, having owned a mk2 for three years a bit back. I'll miss the old style boot because it was very handy really (if ugly). A big hatch for ease when loading up with big stuff, but a saloon to keep the wind and rain off passengers when you need to throw in some shopping in the middle of winter.

[alfie2244]

Take delivery on Monday....hope MrsA doesn't want to see how much shopping it takes to fill the boot
