  1. I put my galaxy 3 in the cup holder between the gearstick and the handbrake when charging or above the 12v socket when not doing so
  2. My reminder started at about 9300, rang the dealership as I had already got the car booked in, No issues. I'm having mine serviced every 12months or 10k.
  3. the wife's monte just back from her 2nd service 3 days short of her 2nd bithday with 19946 on the clock, never missed a beat and I love driving her around town. Decent MPG on a run (50-60mpg). For me she looks tidy and does the job required. nb: won't be wapping her for my superb
  4. Just had a phone call from SWMBO telling me she got a maxidot readout of 57mpg from my Superb Elegance (2.0TDi cr 140ps DSG) after driving from Coventry to Kidlington (50 miles). Her previous pb was 56mpg from her Monte Carlo (1.6TDi cr 105ps) Now 3 weeks old and 900 mile on the clock I am well impressed with both the drive and perfomance.
  5. hope you enjoy yours as much as I am enjoying mine
  6. http://m1366.photobucket.com/albumview/albums/Robert_Nutt/DSCF1054_zpsb6bbfaff.jpg.html If you would like to have a look at my few posts on here, you may realise you are not being decieved. The car was ordered in March but due to wanting a DAB radio I had to have a factory order, production had ceased so I had to wait for the f/l version.

  8. the colour is petrol blue, the spec is elegance. I am hoping to get to the early breakfast on july 27th, when other members are travelling to Gaydon. you are more than welcome to have a peek.
  9. apologies for the typo, just picked her up, petrol blue in colour with onyx leather interior, going out shortly to take some pics then you may believe me :p
  10. my f/l superb is ready for collection, will be picking up at 1400 on Fri 6th July. pictures will follow. So does that make me the owner of the first f/l model, my dealer doesn't even have a demonstrater yet
  11. As previously posted I play golf on sunday mornings, I am due to collect my new Facelifted Superb this weekend possibly the first in the country as the official release date is July 17th. If you are meeting early enough I'll pop round so you can have a little peek.
  12. paid a deposit for mine 140 tdi elegance, in March, build date was last week, so should be first week in july as promised by the dealer
  13. McDonalds is on the BP site, literally 400 yards off the A46. I may drive up to show off my facelifted Superb, if the meet is early enough. I play golf at 8am on Sundays.
  14. you can be assured of great service from the guys at Listers Skoda Coventry, my family have just bought their 5th car from the dealer.
  15. Deposit paid on March 29th, build date expected week 24 (June 10th), a little more than 6 weeks I think. Although I'm hopeful to get delivery end of June start of July
  16. too late now to make a difference but..... travelled from Walsall to Coventry 32miles, driving down the M6, roadworks limited me to 50mph until the restrictions were lifted then a steady 75, parked up with the maxidot showing 58mpg
  17. we make regular 60 mile trips to the in-laws, mostly country roads (55mph) and town traffic (30mph), and average around 54mpg. On a motorway run I can get upto 60mpg depending how fast I wish to drive, on one journey keeping at a steady 60mph the maxidot showd 63mpg, and the journey maybe took 10 extra minutes. Travelling to work each night is 4 miles and the maxidot shows around 45mph by the time I park up, somewhere closer to 40mpg on the way home in the morning traffic.
  18. My dealer has told me the facelifted Superb will not be offered on a VAT free deal. I'm awaiting delivery of my new motor Superb 20cdi 140ps Elegance, expected first week in July,
  19. I would expect tow bar prep would be carried out by the dealer or their appointed agent. My dealer could not find a car with my colour and spec so had to factory order it, I could of had a car within a week if i had just had standard elegance spec and wasn't bothered about the colour. I feel if you tried to place an order and insisted on the facelfted version then you would not get as good a deal, I spoke with my dealer only yesterday and he informed me the new Superb will not be VAT free and the OTR price is rising
  20. Chances are you will be offered the current model, unless you require any extras above model specs. I ordered an Elegance DSG last month but wanted a DAB radio, this became a factory order, production had already stopped so I'm now waiting for a facelifted model. Good thing is I paid a deposit and signed up to the deal that was then being offered, found out I am having a facelifted model at the agreed price, VAT free too. I wont post my invoice total as I wouldn't want to see a grown man cry
  21. I was charged £125 set up fee and a £60 option to purchase fee, I paid £204pm for 15 months, then a final settlement figure of £9386, I had a deposit of £2202 making to total paid £14660. Invoice price was £13523. interest was 6.19% The OTR price was close to £15k, but I had the 0% VAT deal, so even after the finance I think I broke even
  22. A.N. my wifes Monte Carlo has touched a ton without any trouble, still less than 3.5k revs, obviously fuel consumption is lower. I can drive it at 80 most of the way down the motorway and still get near on 50mpg. I'm getting old now (46) so speed isn't important to me anymore, I'd rather get there safely
