Re: New superb review in autocar

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.

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

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.

Re: New superb review in autocar

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.
