I would go the Octavia. My Superb was a hatch rather than a wagon (pre-dated the wagon), but also bought an Octavia hatch for my wife. I have just bought an RS wagon. It is difficult to sell a Superb...
Picking up my RS tomorrow! The dealer used a 19" wheel from a new display room car to replace the one that damaged when they took my car off the ship, rather than wait for a new one to be delivered....
I negotiated 2 year extended factory warranty at $1145 for my RS. My current car (Superb) needed the engine replaced after the timing chain slipped a few links and caused damage. Skoda replaced the...
Hi Idsh42,
When I was tracking mine:
You can use wild card searches on the Wallenius Wilhelmsen shipping site to find out similar cars. For example, to search for all MY2015 cars, use a Cargo...
Thanks Brad, that's reassuring. The plus side of stretching it out for 4 weeks means my excitement of the car's arrival in port can ease before the real excitement starts when I get the keys.
...
My car has been in Perth for 3 weeks now, and is still not in the hands of the dealer. Discovered today that the reason is due to a 19" Extreme rim being damaged in transit, and a replacement needing...
MJKooLio, you got a good price. Don't forget WA has higher stamp duty than everywhere else, so don't compare prices to other states.
I think that should be on the dealer, regardless of whether they entered something incorrectly or not. They own the customer relationship. My dealer suggested I sell my existing car privately rather...

So same system, but I'm in WA, so I can't share. But what is the point when it is 3 year old data? I would love to hear when you get your map updates sorted out.
I had to yell and scream for my disk, and got it 3 weeks after delivery. That meant all the menus were in German until I got the disk. What state did you buy in? What system do you have?
Skoda, as part of the VW group, provided a Columbus in my car, which I think is the same as the RNS510. They reckon the latest is V1, with files dated Sept 2007. So my brand new car thinks both ends...
If anyone orders a factory fitted Columbus, beware. Apparently the setup DVD, while a no-cost item when you order the Columbus, has to be ordered as a separate line item. 2 1/2 weeks after taking...
My Skoda order is coming up on 16 weeks from order, although I had specific options that would have been from factory. It arrived in Australia (Fremantle) almost 2 weeks ago, so I expect the keys by...
The DVG dealer in WA has been helpful. They are new to Skoda, their opening coinciding with the July launch of showroom Superbs.
My dealings with Skoda HQ, mainly through email attempts, have been...
The Toreador has arrived in Fremantle this morning. It docks at the No.11 berth at North Quay, inner harbour. http://www.fremantleports.com.au/Shipping/Weather/Webcam6.asp
I have one on order. Hopefully in about a month I will posting to the Skoda Spotted thread: "Superb Elegance, Cappuccino Beige - in my driveway".
Actually, the Toreador is due to arrive in Fremantle on 27th Sept, and Port Kembla on 4th Oct. I don't know how Skoda handle the cargo processing. If they drop my car off in Fremantle rather than...
I couldn't get the VIN. I got the name of the ship my car is on (Toreador, MMSI Number: 235068882, IMO Number: 9375288, Callsign: 2BSG3). It just left Durban and is due in Sydney around 30 Sept....
I had a test drive 2 weeks ago and ordered a Superb Elegance (1.8TSI). I have to wait until at least October because I couldn't resist ordering it with leather, sat nav, solar sunroof and park...
I had a test drive of a Superb today, and was very happy. I placed an order. Apparently it was the first Superb that DVG have sold, but they have only had them for a couple of days.
For those who...
Since the price was announced back in Feb/March, the Aussie dollar has improved about 10% against the Czech currency. That would suggest it is currently overpriced by close to $5000. Knocking that...
I contacted DVG Online, and their Online Coordinator gave me the most honest answer yet, compared with AHG and Skoda. He said there is basic approval for DVG to pick up the Skoda dealership, but they...
Now the Skoda website has dropped the Osborne Park dealership and the closest dealer by post code is South Australia - 2/3 the way across the country- 2700km away.
It would be nice to get someone...
Chrysler wouldn't even survive without the merge with Fiat, and Fiat ranked last in the UK JD Power survey (Skoda has ranked among the top for a number of years).
If Skoda should be sold by VW...
