No,still got the car. Had Skoda service at 20k ,MOT just 2 front tyres. Still keep thinking about it as I normally only keep until out of warranty but do really like the 272 and best bang for buck for this type of daily.

Can you message me [email protected] Will give you fill details, pictures etc

Just come across this post . Have same colour 272 Sportline Estate on 69 plate,looks same plus pan roof. Full service history 20k miles Question. Thinking of listing mine soon,noticed you sold back to same dealer. Did you get any serious interest from AutoTrader,either private buyers of dealers and did you get what you wanted,seems cheap price so expecting you had a lot of Enquiries

Any more update on the Superchips tune,appreciate only a week but any real world driving feedback appreciated. The deal does look good ,was considering Revo stage1 as other option,mainly based on more information and reviews .

Just to clarify,was referring more to the engine characteristics of the M5 in my post,but the suspension and overall driving dynamic combined meant the car was always a handful and not particularly relaxing as was often portrayed in the media . Not necessarily a negative depending on your needs,as a weekend thrill it could be fantastic,but the UK roads just don't let you exploit its performance safely or legally,and it was not really track car although great drift machine if you could afford the tyres and brakes. Think something like the relatively new BMW 340 touring are the sweetspot of space and performance,but look at the price in comparison to the 272 Superb. So my thought Is to look at stage 1 tune and possibly suspension tweak to the Superb,give the 340 s good run for lot less money and really like the ' sleeper' aspect. Plenty of fun to be had at the expense of supposedly more desirable marques me thinks

Got to say hard to make valid comparison between M5 and the Superb,both objective and subjective,such different vehicles not just in technical spec,but in personal preference . The M5 is like a theatrical event every time you drive,don't believe the media reviews that it was designed as a Autobahn cruiser for German executives,it felt like a wild animal in any driving mode except eco which never got selected. Despite mine being Debadged it still attracted to much attention from boy racers in everything from Corsas to the usual Audi and BMW brigade. Epic car but I found myself using it only occasionally,preferring to jump in my daily..a Citroen Berlingo van that I have had for my business from new and now with 150k on the clock. Really wanted a practical estate for daily driving and particularly the longer journeys . Thought about the E class and Audi A6,spent several months comparing and having always liked the Superb as a left field choice kept coming back to the 272 sportline +,unless your a badge snob really could not see the value in the prestige German brands or anything else for that matter. The Superb just ticked all the boxes and have been really impressed so far,although only covered about 1k so far ,mixture of motorways and one trip across North Yorkshire and Lancs in the snow,great fun and the Haldex 4wd passed with flying colours,would have been still there in the M5.

Only joined recently,just bought 2019 272 sportline estate,nice spec including pan roof. Having just sold my F10 M5. Quite a change coming to the Skoda ,but only good things to say so far,struggling to find issue's,seats a little bit short about worst I can say. Got to say the usable traction this time of year is better in the Superb than trying to pay down 560 horses in the BMW. Interested in the possibilities with remap,following this thread . What are the warranty implications of are there options through Skoda keeping the warranty valid.
