Is there really a car called the Skoda Superb Elegance or are you making that up?

Does it compete with the Lada Splendid Marvellous?

or the SEAT Reasonable Middling?

or even the Renault Shocking Repulsive?

Yep, the Skoda Superb is the new luxury barge... Elegance being the trim level. Not a bad fat cat mobile by all accounts... and before you start Superb is a historical name... and no I don't own or work for Skoda...!

er...?

Lads it's all a marketting ploy. The three cars in question haven't been released yet. Think about it... no one's got them.

They'll let interest begin to wane, drop one more of the cards in and then the week before the motorshow they'll stick the remaining one in... maximum publicity at the time when everyone is going on about the motor industry...

I'm starting to get annoyed with Shell now, my local supplier doesnt really car about the cards and they dont seem to sell much Opti so its at least 10 packs a time I go in there, now have enough to furnish about 10 people with the 15 cars but those last three......

The Noble isn't mega rare, some people have got it.

Its the Maser Spyder and the 575M that are the really rare (yet to be released) ones.

I still need one of the Lexus cards (SC430 or GS430, not sure which one off hand), is it rare(ish) or am I just being unlucky?

- I do enjoy a thinly veiled insult / sarcasm even if directed at me!

Fair point - so WHY does everyone keep putting a fiver in the tank just ion the hope they might get another card? - and filling up Shells coffers at the same time!

Right then, I've got 16!
I've got the Noble but not the Ferrari or Maserati Spyder.
Don't expect to get either of them as well?

Shell will know exactly where the 'winning' card gets distributed to and you can bet that it's a different part of the country to where the few other rare cards have gone! That's the way these promotions work!

Cheers.... Andrew

I am quite sure that I have the Ferrari, I belive my girlfriend picked it up from a station in Wrexham last week. I will check tonight.

I wonder how much of the total Optimax sold in the UK is sold to people who either post to or read from this site?

I reckon its quite high on the whole.

Ok off to the Lexus website to see what the difference between a SC430 and GS430 is. I know what the one I've got looks like (Oh and its silver, is the other one a different colour?)

Talking of shaking a stick at things, I must have about 15 of those Skoda Octavia RS thingies... Anyone need one for a 'Rari?

Right, its the SC430 I've got, the hard top convertible one. Its the GS430 that I haven't got...
