Three years ago I sold a Gen 3 XC70 AWD as we were giving up caravanning. So wanting to get away from diesels, dpf, turbos etc I bought a new 2.0 petrol Forester. It was a really nice drive and when we decided to buy another caravan in late 2016 we bought something supposedly well within the Subarus 2000kg capability. But towing only 1300 kg it needed far too many revs for my liking so we decided to buy the Forester XT but the cost to change was silly money. Then up popped the Superb at a local car dealership. We went to see it and took it for a test drive. I liked it immediately but my wife was to say the least "boot faced". Thought it far too big. This from someone who has driven Discos, Saab 9000, Sorento, Pajero, XC70 and Forester! . Even the salesman asked if I was certain I wanted to go ahead with the Superb. Since I drive the majority of journeys and do all the towing the answer was "yes". Anyway she now likes the car and after taking it out today with the caravan hitched I can understand why it won Towcar of the Year. But I must admit it does feel strange getting into a car so low to the ground compared to our some of our previous ones.
My father now 94 has only recently sold his Felicia (Bought Corsa for a change) as it was life expired, but prior to that he had Favorits. My first Skoda was an Estelle 105 which we bought as a second car which should have had zero street cred, but when it arrived the kids thought it was great and wanted to drive it. That car lived in the Lakes and took us all over the Lakeland Passes, Pennines and to the north of Scotland, as well as my daily commute. It sold at the asking price within day of being advertised. So this new Superb will have a lot to live up to.
