Default Can you think of an alternative name for the Superb?

Although I havent got my Superb Elegance yet, I now have the badges for the Felicia,Octavia and Superb so that I could change the Badge on the back to ABSOLUT or ABSOLUTE instead of Superb. Why? Because its absolutely loaded with Kit , Absolutely lovely . and I think "Skoda Absolute" has a nice ring to it. I am 99% sure I will go with Absolute, but have any of you got better ideas for a name?

Thanks for the link. However, I was hoping for something I can actually put on my car instead of "CHAVCAR" "BREASTS" or "FLIPS OVER" etc...

I still think they should have stuck with the original name - Montreaux. One of the things I hate most about the Superb is having to tell people what you drive...

"What car is it, sir?"
"It's a Skoda" - OK so far
"Oh, a Skoda - which model sir?"
"Umm.....well......it's a......OK, it's a Superb. Yeah I know - Skoda, Superb. ha ha"

If anyone speaks Czech here, I wouldn't mind a Czech name that has a good meaning.
