[Another review]

excellent write up... love the look of the car but I would get it lowered a bit.

[Superb Estate has arrived!]

Very nice motor you have there...enjoy..

[body kits]

...Well, we don't want to see four pipes sticking out of a diesel! It would ruin the exclusivity factor!!!

Sweet looking motor you have there.. sure Twin exits on the greenline would give you something to look at while trying to catch up with it...

Lol, well another dealership has said we can have them so our CR170 may well be a V6 lookalike soon, seen a V6 saloon one around my way too!

Looking at some pics underneath, i can see why not. I'm good with a welder.. if i was going for it I'm might just want one larger one of eachside.

I must check out the A6 backboxs.

They are being offered now for the MKII vRS also now on ebay.

Isn`t the Greenline a diesel? Would assume that it has a totally different design of exhaust between the turbo and the backbox to the V6. I know the V6 backbox isnt compatible with our CR170 (according to the Dealership parts department)

thanks for the note , i was thinking it would be trouble alright, only wish Skoda would add these going forward. i love the Audi versions.

[Finaly got round to taking a few pics of my vRS]

Some very nice pictures there. I love the look of the white models and with the black leather really sets if off.

another great buy from Tarrants, bought a vRS myself from them in 2007 and my wife bought a new superb this year. great to deal with.

Best of luck with it and i might see you in the local area.

Colin.

My sentiment's, and get a look at a 3.6 version, I believe these have the boot lip spoiler as standard if you need to see.

I'm going to get the front lip spoiler for ours, but i'd love to get the twin exit exhaust.

anyone got a pic of the under neath of a Greenline and a V6 model, just wonder if you could get a V6 exhaust system fitted ??

some nice Audis going around with the twin exits..

[Blue Bullet DRL Version 2]

Thanks lads..

[upgraded sound system]

I have it in my Octavia and love it, when we ordered the Superb for my wife i forgot to add it and now i right ****ed off i didn't get it..

so yes i would get it if i was buying again.

[Fuel tank range]

Well, the Superb tank is 5 litres larger than my old Octy, however, I wish a long range tank (80-90 litres) was available as an option.

Yesterday, my Superb achieved 733 miles, equating to 57mpg. I filled the tank with 58.30 litres.

Jaysus, that is fair good, we get about 600 miles in my wife's Greenline, it's still low mileage so it may get better as it hit 10k.

On my MKII vRs TFSI, i get about 390 miles so i'm delighted with both returns.

[Blue Bullet DRL Version 2]

That looks excellent. Delighted you posted this now. i'm going to get a set too.

what's the part number or the spare grill parts so i can get these also.

any chance you could also get a good close up pic of it.

thanks again, Colin

[Fitted alloy foot rest cover today]

Fitted my vRS foot rest cover just before lunch today, the foot rest has to come off, its then drilled and the alloy plate is firmly screwed and bolted on. Easy to remove the rest but a bugger to refit!!! Anyway, enjoy.

Looks very good, I've got one but must go fit it. How do you get the foot rest off?

[Skoda Estate Spoiler on FL VRS]

I got mine from the dealer last week so just waiting to get it painted now.

I was going to fit it myself. looks easy enough with some bonding glue.

thanks for pointing out the mark, i must hold to boot open first before i glue it on

[Which oil in 2.0 tfsi]

My Garage said 10W 40 but I only use VALVOLINE Syn Power XL-III Fully Synthetic 5W-30

Very good for High Powered Engines, Longlifr Protection for VW, AUDI,SKODA AND SEAT.

It also meets the figures VW504.00 /507.00

50 euro for 4 Litres but buy 2 in my local Motor Factors and you get 2 for 80 euro.

cracking deal if i may say.

I always use good oil for my baby.

[Another New Octy Vrs Estate]

Love that colour, really suits it

[The Brembo big brake kit is on...........and I love it !]

Class looking brakes, now get rid of the grill setup.

[Vmaxx coilovers now added for a bit of low]

Looking a lot better now. Going to get mine done next month.

[A Quick Report @ 2,200mls]

Excellent write up. Glad to see you're enjoying it.

Spot on, Cheers, Colin

Hi Ray, rang the dealer today and they confirmed that they may have forgot to check this in the handover.

I'm bringing it down Friday to get it fixed.

Thanks,

[Bluetooth Function in 2010 FL]

Can't definitivly answer the question but this is the phone ive been looking at and im led to believe it will work wil my forthcoming Octavia bluetooth kit. Please let me know if it does!!

will do once i get it connected up tomorrow. thanks. C

[Coming Home and Leaving Home light on Superb Greenline?]

I'd bet that it's a code setting used during delivery (to conserve battery power) that hasn't been re-set by your dealer during the PDI. Happened to my previous Skoda, very quick to put right.

Ray

Thanks Ray, I just love the knowledge on this site.

i'll give him a bell tomorrow

[Bluetooth Function in 2010 FL]

Howdy, my wife is gettng a new phone today Nokia 5530 and was wondering will it be ok on her 2010 Superb with Bluetooth?

any ideas?

thanks and rgds, Colin

[Wheel Bargain]

thanks for the comment, they are a nice wheel alright. do people think i should leave the audi badge or try and get the BBS ones. I don't think i can fit skoda ones to it.

i think the car was settled in the pictures there as i drove 20 miles and i was bouncing the car up and down in the back trying to get it back to the orginal position.

Weird as i know the the greenline is already dropped 15mm.

I told herself we need to get the suspension lowered 20mm and she nearly had a stroke, she had a look at the car and say thats fine looking.

i think i'll sneak it away from her next weekend and get it sorted.
