Does anybody know all the differences between an early 2016 model and say a late 2017 model? Thank you.

Thanks guys for the input, much appreciated! Still searching, there is one fairly local to me but has nearly 75000 miles but is from a Skoda dealership with full Skoda history only thing putting me off is it’s an early car 2016 so smaller infotainment screen etc.

Thanks guys for your replies great info. It is a 2.0 diesel 150 engine so presume a wet DSG system so presume it will have service intervals to stop it getting clogged up etc. I’m coming from a VW Passat estate and have two dogs now and need a bit more boot space room and the Superb Sportline is such a nice looking car!

Good evening guys, I’m looking at coming back to Skoda with potentially looking at buying a Skoda Superb Sportline Estate in 150 bhp engine and DSG gearbox. As that is what a car I have my eye on has in it, I have a few questions 1. Are the panoramic sunroofs a no no after googling and reading some of the horror stories what are peoples views? 2. how often should the DSG gearbox be serviced? 3. How well do the DSG clutch’s last in them compared to the likes of a manual clutch setup? 4. how well do the Superb 150 engines cope with high mileage? 5. Anything to keep my eye out for when potentially viewing one bar the obvious, any little things specific to model to look out for? hope you can help, cheers Lee.

Agh I see, thanks for letting me know. im sure iv seen very similiar to your type of wheels on a few Golfs, they look very nice, have you done anything to your suspension? As in lowered it, springs, coilovers. nice looking motor, don’t see many in that colour.

That looks very nice indeed, so where did you get those tips from? Also really like your wheels too are they 18” off a Golf?

Thanks for the reply, il leave the EBay ones I think and see how much some genuine ones are from my local VW dealer.

Evening, I know it was probably a long time ago now, but can you remember where you bought the stainless exhaust tips from please as I’d like to get some for my car, as I have the same car as you, thanks in advance and hope you can help.

It’s a close call between the looks of them both, but the Passat is bigger, and probably better for family duty’s being a tad larger. is this the case for 2014/2015 models as this is what my budget is allowing me to find?

Thanks all for input, iv decided to not bother with MK3 Skoda Octavia, and not a 1.6tdi. I’m currently looking at VW Passat 2.0 TDI bluemotion estate models and I’m looking at VW Golf GT 2.0 TDI bluemotion also in Estate form.

Thanks all, certainly given me more to look at and think of that’s for sure.

I’m guessing this is down to the noisy/booming engine you mentioned above then? im also going to look at Volkswagen Passat 1.6tdi bluemotion executive estate models too I think. Other than this not much else I like really, quite like the Mazda 6 tourer skyactive 2.2D 148bhp model, but worried about real world running costs due to the large engine.

Thanks to you both for your input, definitely some food for thought then, I think I need to test drive one firstly then tbh.

I’m the above owner of a MK2 version of the above title, but have been involved in an accident and it’s going to be wrote off I believe. So after the MK2 version being so good to me and my family as it never missed a beat, and proved very reliable. I am considering getting a MK3 version of the same car. so is the MK3 version as good as the MK2? Any known problems to look out for at all? As the last car being so good I’d be happy to have a MK3 version as if I’m honest their isn’t much else that floats our boat. help and opinions welcome, thanks Lee.

Thanks for getting back to me, look forward to your update shortly then. Many thanks Lee.
