Ciao from Tuscany

[MikeFirenze]

Hi everyone, I live in Tuscany and bought a 1 year old VW Group Superb II Estate just over a year ago.

 

Having driven many cars over the years I could not believe how good the Superb is. I've put some 45,000 km on the clock, without a single problem, and am about to order a new Superb III estate this week. I drive all over Europe and go as far north as Norway and Sweden and as far east as Hungary.

 

I've been following the forum for the last few weeks and have found so many useful answers to my questions.

 

I hope that  I may also be able to help others the same way.

 

Speak to you soon.

 

Mike.

Hello Mike, welcome to the forum!  Glad to hear you're enjoying the Superb.  What engine and spec are you going for in the new SIII?

Hi Superb 170, thanks for the welcome.

 

Going for a diesel L & K estate, 4x4, in Business Grey Metallic.

Hi Mike, welcome to the forum, love the username twist

 

L&K lots of nice feeling to it, bella sensazione 

I had a mkII, sold it, but tested the MKIII on launch in Scotland... loved it, better than the mkII apart from the dual boot... but that's not an issue in estate format.

 

 

Enjoy it

Hi Colin, Thanks for the welcome. Nice Italian.

 

Do you know what the ET size is for the L & K wheels? We get a crap option here in Italy (only my opinion) for the 18" wheels and I have read that the 4x4's do not get on well with the 19" rims. I'd ask on the forum but as a newbie I think that I'm still restricted to this section of the forum. I'll use the standard rims for the winter tyres and look elsewhere for the 18" summer rims.

Please ignore the previous post regarding wheel size. Going for the 19" Phoenix after reading Forum discussion on wheel sizes. Thanks guys.
