That's good news for you. My new Superb was ordered on the same day as yours so maybe it will be on the same RHD production run. My saleslady is in Prague at the moment experiencing the new Škoda models, but no doubt she'll update me in due course.

New Superb Estate Laurin & Klement 2.0 TDI 193PS DSG 4x4 in Energy Blue ordered yesterday. Options include active tyre pressure monitoring system, heads-up display, simply clever family package, variable boot floor and boot net partition. £49,100 on the road.

My dashcam can be configured to continuously just display my car's speed.

As I type this my L&K 2.0 TDI 190PS DSG SCR Estate, which I ordered on 20th September, is currently on board the 'Weser Highway', which left Emden at 0843 hours this morning. It's due to arrive in Grimsby at 0517 hours in the morning. I'm having great fun tracking its progress on various shipping websites.

On my 2016 L&K I ordered a whole host of options which added a fair amount to the overall cost. I currently have a facelifted L&K on order and again I've specified a number of options, but the total cost of these options is significantly less than those on my present car. A number of options I specified first time around are now standard. I believe the car has been pushed more upmarket, the more limited engine & transmission possibilities now available reinforcing my view.

I've been using it for three & a half years now and can probably count on one hand the number of times I've been flashed.

Thank you for your thoughts but I've now calculated that I don't really need a diesel given the mileage I do in my Superb. However, for me an L&K trumps all other trims so as I want to place an order now it's down to a more powerful, less economical & more costly petrol or diesel. The 2.0 TSI 190PS DSG comes in over £1,500 cheaper than the 2.0 TDI 190PS DSG SCR so I'll probably go for that, even though I don't really need that amount of power. Now I'm annoyed because I could have placed an order a couple of months ago had I known then what I know now.

The website was updated this afternoon, after I had posted. My dealer had sent me a copy of the updated document this morning.

The new 2.0 TDI 150PS engine can be ordered from today. I've been patiently waiting for its release so that I can replace my April 2016 L&K 2.0 TDI 150PS estate with the same again. However, guess what, that combination cannot now be specified as per the new Pricing & Specification document dated today. I'm very, very disappointed!

I had Columbus/Canton in my Octavia. It's early days for me yet with my Superb but in my opinion the fitted Columbus/Canton sounds far better than it did in my Octavia. I am very impressed with it.

I did collect on Wednesday - now see the owners register & picture threads.

Picked up Wednesday, but the inclement weather is restricting my ability to obtain decent (& clean car) photos of my Laurin & Klement 2.0 TDI 150PS estate.

Thanks Steve. Sorry for the delay in responding but I've been playing with my new toy which I did collect on Wednesday! I hope to post some more photos when some decent weather allows it.

Looks good.
