Words of wisdom Nobby lad !!!! Skoda is indeed the people's car not just VW partner but for all other car manufacturers to learn a thing or two about to be successful and not just sell a product for badge snobbery as past and present have done over the years 👍😁🤪
I had 2 when they were a laughing stock, come winter I used to have the last laugh, choke out, turn key, off I went. past so many more expensive cars that were chugging over and refusing to start at all.
You are right Nobby. Some Superb models, like my 2016 L&K 280 Estate, do have 2 x Umbrella's in the front doors so maybe a bit of penny pinching going on there with the new models. I still prefer the Estate version for it's extra load swallowing flexibility. However, as good as they are Skoda's are not such a bargain buy as they used to be. For that reason I buy mine used at 2-3 years old.
I do love Skoda's, and the superb is on my short list, especially the L & K version, but one thing i really wish they would solve is..doing what Honda can seem too......... get the damn seats to fold flat, i mean real flat without the need for stupid boot level extras, if Honda and others can do it, why not Skoda.
Alot more standard spec to previous model SE Tech comes with massage seat heated seats rear camera blind spot adaptive cruise all extra on previous generation
Main problem with Skoda or any VW product is cost of spare parts. The Skoda dealer asked me AUD $7200 for Mechatronics replacement for a 2017 Skoda Octavia.
Order it directly from Europe, all VW parts going to Australia are handled by 3 distributors before landing in Australia, then there’s local mark up in Australia, Order direct from Europe and save heaps!
Definitely an upgrade on the previous model. Prices seem to have really crept up too. Might be worth mentioning the price of the actual car you tested rather than the starting price ?
It strikes me as very odd than none of the channels that reviewed this car, made a comment on how hard-pressed you'll be to distinguish the new (?) model from the outgoing one. By the time it's replaced it will look so outdated. It already does. Where are the innovative ideas in terms of design Skoda?
@@menifo4334 it os often the case that a new or updated model is not radically changed. The interior however has quite noticeable changes. If it not broke why change it.👍
Hi Mark, I currently drive a L&k Superb -2019. I test drove the new model and just felt the luxury element of the interior was missing and, like most cars these days (See Audi A6) the quality of the materials used wasn’t as before. It drove really well though. It didn’t have adaptive dampers and was a low spec model. I am still surprised that Skoda decided only to sell this new model in L&K trim with the 4x4. In the uk and also it’s a shame they decided not to offer the hatchback with the PHEV. Odd that one. Great review and keep up the excellent work.
As always a great video. Very informative without being boring. Good looking car. Waiting to see what price the 2.0 tsi petrol sportline will be in the UK. I know it will be pricey! Maybe wait a year and see what the depreciation is.

I have the 150bhp diesel and, OMG, this machine is capable of up to 1400km per tank if driven sensibly! I drove the MK3 408,000km and the way I describe the MK4 is, it's like going from Windows 8 to Windows 10. The power in the 150bhp is sufficient and drives very very well!

You can't fit anything tall in that boot. Also the car is so low that you will scratch it on every speed bump. It's also a pain to get in or our or to get a child in their seat. Be smart and buy an SUV instead.
Is this a review or a advertisement for skoda. No mention of build quality, material quality, refinement, performance, fuel economy, handling, just a mention about ride quality.

DON'T BUY, FULL OF SOFTWARE FAULTS. Mine has been at the dealers for 3 months waiting for Skoda to sort out the software. Complaints from all over Europe on Skoda owners forum Briscoda. DON'T BUY IT'S A DISASTER
Maybe write to Skoda or your dealer rather than suggesting your car is representative of every vehicle.
@NobbyOnCars I have written to dealers, who have had the carfor 3 months and will not hand vack as potentially dangerous, the chief executive of Skoda UK who admits there is a fault, and Skoda CZ who admit there is a fault across the range and could take another 3 months to fix I repeat, there is a major software fault across the range.
Don't worry, I have been writing to Skoda uk M.D. They admit there is a major software fault, affecting cars all over Europe. They are now starting to give full refunds.
It is German. It's a VW.
Look up where Skoda are built and come back to me

Well, the new Passat is a Skoda, because they developed and engineered it!
Terrible design choice for interior. Already look like last gen cars. Typical Skoda to take old tech, repack it and sell for good money while being bunch of cheap plastics and old engines. Makes me laugh when people compare to premium brands 😂
Do you compare 40k with 80k? Get well!
@@stoicapetruliviu8840 last time I’ve checked it starts from 50k and it is my personal observation over last 20 years so don’t take it so personal. It was guy in the video that was comparing it to premium cars not me. You didn’t do your homework
@@gregfromthevaley what kind of K? €? In Europe starts at 34.050 €. With 8-10K of extra kit it's quite nice compared with A5/A6 At 10-15 k more
@@stoicapetruliviu8840 sorry to break it down to you but this is Irish review so very irrelevant to your market
@@gregfromthevaley so Merc, Audi & BMW are cheaper than in Europe?
You can't fit anything tall in that boot. Also the car is so low that you will scratch it on every speed bump. It's also a pain to get in or our or to get a child in their seat. Be smart and buy an SUV instead.
@@theanswer1993 nonsense to all of the above
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 you are in a psyhiatric hospital i guess!!!!
Ha ha 😂
Is this a review or a advertisement for skoda. No mention of build quality, material quality, refinement, performance, fuel economy, handling, just a mention about ride quality. A useless noob review. Waffling all over the place. No structure to this guys reviews. That's why I look at Matt Watson on carwow, or What car for the best reviews. Not this noob.
Looks good, but ill stick with my generation 3 estate for the time being. It's a fab car.
