Hi all.

I'm been lurking around here since I bought my Superb Combi in the beginning of March and today I got the car!

It's a Elegance 140 TDi 4x4 DSG, with Webasto, Columbus, leather. Well, most in the list except heated backseat, panorama roof and upgraded stereo as the most important I considered.

If you would like to see a MY2013 here it is, can take inside pictures tomorrow. The roof box will be stored away when it's not in used, bought a ceiling lift.

nice, wat's about that sticker below the right ac grill ?!

It's a warning telling you someting like there is an airbag installed so don't mount a child seat without turning it off.

Looks good. One question- given the Superb has one of the largest boots available any reason for also needing a roofbox the size of a planet?

Also, which roofbox is it? Is it a standard Skoda one? Are they Thule or Skoda roof bars? And would you be able to measure the overall height with the box?

Thanks in advance.

Fraid this link could not be found...at least not from my computer.

The boot in my old 03 Octavia was more practical, could stick 2 twinsets plus dive gear in easily, whereas in the superb I struggle due to the angle of the boot lid, just a play on figures. I have a thule roof box and now considering a box trailor.

Well, in Norway Combis in general are more popular than sedans and often also with roof boxes (ski boxes)

We got a newborn the day before the Superb was delivered and with 2 adults and 2 kids and clothes and boots and pram and everything, its very nice to have the box for skis and some light luggage in the winter going to the mountains.

The box is a Skiguard 850. http://www.skiguard....x.php?sideID=41

850 is recognized to be the nicest and best ski box by many in Norway. It's wide, rather flat and lies tight to the roof.

The roof bars are Thule.

Will try to measure the height tomorrow.

Very nice, if I could get that car in RHD and manual I'd be a happy man.

Thank very much for the info. I have sent an email to the company to see if they have a stockist in the UK.

Sorry I forgot to measure the overall height with the box before I removed it.

But here are some pictures if anyone are interested to see the inside and the ceiling lift. I also fitted a light with remote control inside the box.

Thanks for posting the pictures; it looks really great. I did contact the supplier, but they don't sell it in the UK, and shipping costs would have increased the cost by 50% and the total cost would have exceeded 1000 Euro! I'm having to consider other options!
