Skoda has a good track record of producing some very cool concepts/early designs (the recent Yeti, the Octavia vRS etc) that actually make it into production. We have high hopes therefore that the next generation Superb, shown here, does just that. We like the dramatic shut lines at the front, the minimal featured jewellery that […]

Skoda really has gone from strength to strength and now have great reputation for producing quality motors.
