You went for the language pedant approach, and I was trying not to make a 'said the nun to the bishop' joke! Still, the point was clear, and it is odd that we talk about width, height, and depth and then switch to how long something is.

 

Surely though the need for an even longer deeper boot in the Superb must be for fairly niche load carrying requirements?

Congrats on the new purchase

I actually wish the boot was longer in depth in the estate just by a few inches!  

It’s the girth of the boot that impresses me. 

  Apologise for the bad grammar!  It was too early for me plus I was "trying" to work at the same time!

We bought it! It’s in cracking condition, aside from a few stone chips on the front bumper it’s really hard to pick fault. The interior was spotless. 
 

And, of course, it swallowed our pushchair with ease! We didn’t realise it had the under-floor storage as well (no spare wheel) so that and the side pockets mean the storage is vast. 
 

Thanks again to everyone on this thread for sharing your experience and opinions.
