Built into the instrument panel - at the right lighting angle you can see two dots around 3-4mm in diameter that are slightly different to the rest of the panel.

I thought I did pretty well to get 957 miles from a tank in mine (1.5 eTSI), but that's another level altogether!

You have a Mk3 Superb and this is the Mk 4 forum, so I've asked for your post to be moved - hopefully you'll then get some answers!

Echo exactly what John625 said - picked mine up in December, a couple of minor niggles although nothing serious enough to take it in for fixing yet. Great car, and the petrol 1.5 eTSI version is incredibly economical (around as good my Audi A2 1.4 petrol was in 2001) once you learn how to drive and coast in the the most efficient manner. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend it based on my own experience.

As your car is a Mark 3 I'll ask the mods to move this thread to that forum where you should get more replies. And welcome btw!

You'll be looking at a Mk3 Superb and this is the Mk4 forum - I've flagged for a moderator to move to the Mk3 forum where you should get more responses.

I've got the full version - £25 (UK) one-off payment. Initially it wouldn't let me change the colours at all, but after the car had been off for the day it started working - the colour bars are now more detailed and all 30 colours are available for both the LED strips and the other ambient lighting. Can't see any other differences.

I find it necessary on my hatch to be honest - I have a dislike of not being able to see through the rear window clearly, and the natural airflow over the rear screen, even at speed (both Mk3 and Mk4), isn't enough to dislodge most of the water.

Update on my original post - car was built on 20 November (order placed with dealer in July) and delivery to me is this week.

Nothing to worry about at all - any cars already on the road won't be affected, as these deadlines will only apply to the sale of new cars. If anything the residual value of used petrol cars will be better as the availability of new cars will diminish sharply over the coming years, depending on exactly how the government decides to adjust the phase-out plan. Bear in mind as well that 2030 is six years away, and by that time there will have been a mid-life revision of any cars that are currently being sold so I suspect Skoda will have revised the powertrain line-up in accordance with any new rules well in advance.

That's going to be a Mk3 (MkIII) model so I've asked for the thread to be moved to that forum where you'll get more visibility. This is the forum for the Mk4 (MkIV) model just launched, not for the iV designated hybrids generally!

I thought it might be worth comparing and updating our order dates and expected build weeks and delivery dates (if known). Obviously there will be differences according to body style, engine, trim and extras, and country of delivery, shipping arrangements, and date when ordered from the dealer, so listing all the information should make the comparisons more useful. For starters, my details: Hatch, 1.5 eTSI, SE Tech (with winter pack, rear wiper, metallic blue, lounge interior). Ordered from dealer in United Kingdom (Essex) late July 2024, still waiting for confirmation of planned build week and therefore no estimated delivery date.

You're posting in the wrong section (this Mk IV forum is for the fourth generation of the Superb that is not yet on the road) - you need to post in Superb Mk III, as in the third generation of the car, iV being the designation for the hybrid version that you have - understandably confusing!

I guess I misunderstood what you meant by the line "Rumors and to be honest - bad ones" then! I do know that in the UK the pricing is likely to mean most versions apart of the base engine and spec being hit with the "luxury car" tax supplement, which seems a rather odd concept to someone familiar with Skoda cars from the 1980s...

Those may be the initial versions to go on sale, with the other engines and specs following progressively as production ramps up to full capacity - I'm sure it has already been mentioned that the estate is first to be built with the hatch following a few months afterwards. Who are the "they say" rumours from in this context?
