You get a lot of car for your money with the Skoda Superb. An enormous saloon that is best powered by the 2.8-litre V6 petrol and the 2.0-litre 140bhp TDI diesel engines. Skoda has produced a supreme bargain.... read more

Fabulous car! Truly a SUPER-mini. Bags of space, surprisingly fun to drive and good price.

10 years ago I would have never have dreamt of buing and owning a Skoda. It shows just how far Skoda has come that I not only included Skoda in my list of possible new cars but went further and actually bought one! I wanted a family saloon car that would give us plenty of space but didn’t want an MPV. I also did not want to spend a ridiculous amount of money on a car so a Mercedes was out of the question. The Superb gives me both the space that I want plus the power and performance necessary. All this at a VERY reasonable price, this Skoda really is SUPERB!

Skoda have indeed come a long way. The Roomster is a very affordable MPV, not only to buy but to run. I test drove both this model and the 1.6 petrol version but felt the diesel offers a lot more performance wise for only a fraction more money. Bags of space very enjoyable to drive and really well built. More fool you if you overlook this because of the badge name.

This car is fabulous. Superb build quality, comfortable, great handling & plenty of room inside. Would certainly have another in a couple of years.

This is an absolutely fantastic car. Similar in design to the Volkswagen Polo, this is a spacious, with plenty of interior room, and available at an excellent price ( around the £8000 mark ). I chose this over the Vauxhall Corsa and am delighted with my choice. 5 stars.

Fuel economy is disappointing ( less than 40mpg ) though handling and comfort are good. The new car price is very reasonable but I suppose this is really a no-frills choice that is reliable but unadventurous.

I test drove the 1.2 model in May, and liked the way the car handled on the road, but found it to be woefully under powered. So I ordered the 1.6 which I got 2 months ago. Driving it I have found that it is very quick and torquey, but I do think that it is a bit low geared, 70mph in fifth gear and the engine is at nearly 4000 revs. I do find that that at speed it is sometimes a little difficult to control due to its fairly high seating position and soft suspension, and this also leads to noticeable body roll in corners, but you get used it. On long motorway journeys it is very comfortable and very quite for a small hatchback. When you first drive one you feel as if the brakes are not doing much, due to the way it nose dives, again soft suspension, but I was very shocked the first time I hit them at speed at how quickly it stopped, although in the wet I sometimes feel that the abs kicks in a little to soon. On the whole I find this to be a great not-so-little, little car, comfortable, quite economical (I average 32mpg but I put my foot down a lot), well equipped, reasonably quick car. I do think however that its price is a little excessive.
