Yes but the problem is the same as when the new Octavia came out, this is now a big time money car. As tested quote "£23,000" My Superb comfort 130Tdi with 17" solid alloys came in at around £17k.

I am due a car next spring. No1 on the list was another Superb, until I saw the new Vauxhall Insignia

. these cars will be £20k plus, in any decent middle range spec. so too much spondoolicks.

I think that's a mistake on their part - they say the 3.6 will be £25k. I can't see the 2.0tdi being only 2k less than that.

3.6 V6

It'd be interesting to see a head-to-head of that vs the Passat 3.6.

4x4 2.0 crtdi anyone???

primey · 13-05-2008, 15:53

3.0 V6 TDi for me. 4x4 with Self levelling suspension switching between Super Soft to Super Sporty. But there seems to be no sign of a V6 Diesel.

Auto Express have a review too.

Skoda Superb 2.0 TDI | First Drives | Car Reviews | Auto Express

They reckon £16.5k for the 138bhp 2.0TDI - I can't see a 7k upcharge for another 40bhp.
