This beauty arrived at my door at 8am this morning. Strangest new car collection ever!

Is it a L&K ? If yes, curious to see a rear bumper diffusor from the Sportline version.  Did the L&K standard spec. has changed on L&K or did you replace it on your own already?

Thats the way it came, only got it today and yes its an L and K. Ticked a lot of boxes on the spec sheet so having fun working out what everything does.

Close up view.

OK, then the standard L&K may have changed to include this rear bumper diffusor with a chrome lid, which is much more consistent with other chrome lids on a L&K. 

 Enjoy your new toy!  

Posted wrong picture- try this.

Nice! I may buy the same rear bumper diffusor on superskoda.com in case I make/get ugly scratches on mine (w/o chrome lids).  

I retrofitted the Superskoda Sportline rear diffuser to mine to match the rest of the chrome bits n pieces.

 

Dropped the 272 at the Dealer with this long term.

Just collected this vision in Energy Blue with Canton, Virtual Dash, Blind Spot monitoring, Reversing Camera and 205 spare tyre in SEL spec so electric tailgate and Black Leather interior. Paid £22,800 which is about £10,000 less than a new one with 6,253 miles recorded.

Was the remapped 272 too much for you Shy? 😝😝

 

Is this to replace Mrs Shy's SUV?

 

Ps. What are your MPGs thus far? 😉

My licence was in serious danger every time I drove the 272. Needed something to slow me down and having driven the wife's compact SUV knew I wasn't ready for the roly poly handling until I hit 70 years old and can't see anyone so best compromise was a loaded diesel Superb which this car ticks all the boxes. Bit early but first commute tonight was 75mpg so not too shabby and range is now an indicated 940 miles but sure this will improve as I get used to the new gear ratios.

Ah no way!

 

SEL spec is what I have as well. It ticked my boxes for equipment levels. Though I added Canton, the camera and a spare too. 

 

All the best with it!

@shyVRS245 What do you mean by 'loaded diesel'? Is your new vessel equiped with new TDI200 or did you chose the TDI150 to really slow you down ? 

However, I understand your decision... an Asian proverb says: the wise man is the one who knows his limits ...

Just the 150PS diesel with the 7speed DSG but the experts on Brisky tell me it's better than the 190PS diesel.

For which aspect ?...

In my country recently someone made a 2.0tdi 150 HP chip tuning and the end result was 204hp;)

Better FUEL ECONOMY of course. The only reason to buy a diesel surely. Not planning on towing a caravan.....ever.

Of course... So obvious ! 😉

But ´cutting’  half the power is a hard decision! I would be able to do the same on my daily car, only if had a nice toy for the weekends, to keep some fun/pleasure at driving. A Dodge Charger ´69 is one my dreams. Hope it can become true one of these days...

You can still very easily lose your licence in a 150bhp diesel though? Not really sure I see the point but whatever.  Almost like there is an underlying reason. 

Next thread title will be “When you change your 272 for this blue one, and half the forum loses its sh#t as to why”. 
I hope to God it’s not nearly 40 pages long though!!

Nice trip upto Scotland last week! 1200miles and never skipped a beat! Managed to get nearly 500 miles to a tank which i'm well happy with! Normally only managed 380-400 to a tank! Had 20mm spacers fitted 2 days before we left for Scotland as well and love how it sits now! Didn't like how they made it look at first but i've got use to it now
