Yes
Just as not too many years ago, the front of the Fiesta/Focus/Mondeo resembled the Aston-Martins of the same age

I'm hoping for a 2018 -> facelift model. I've seen a couple a little above my budget that I could manage but it's early days. Thanks for the eBay suggestion - I've been bitten twice with car purchases from there so will need to be a bit picky.

Check the seats on a facelift model as they look a bit flat to me.

That’s my old friend Nigel’s car, he did have it up for sale at one point. He has been all over Europe in that

My daughter is a secret Skoda nut ! Her first car was the green Felicia that I gave her when she passed her test.
This Sunday, she bought her second Felicia from my friend which is absolutely immaculate and has to be one of the best around.
I now have my old car back and it is going to be a fun, ratty project to join my 2003 Octavia L&K

It matches her hair!
Solid cars, every bit as practical, good value and stylish as a Peugeot 309 I used to run in the 90's.

It definitely matches her hair and personality, she loved the green car so this new one was just a natural progression although she still has eyes on my Octavia 👀

Mk.1 Fabia vRS’s were brilliant little cars

One of the neighbours has one; https://www.cyclechat.net/threads/the-skoda-thread.276955/page-45#post-7489136
We bought a 1.4Mpi estate new, & test-drove a vRS, at the time, but decided we needed a bit more room, with having 2 Border Collies at the time; https://www.cyclechat.net/threads/the-skoda-thread.276955/#post-6460866
Now, if they'd produced a vRS estate.........................

Not bad!
That includes a trip along the M62 (from jct 31), to FerryBridge, & up the A1 to the A59/jct 47
Then back
A theoretical 830 mile range, not bad on 55litre tank (plus, I think, a 5 litre 'reserve')

Looks like I'll be joining the Skoda family later this week with a late 2017 Superb 2.0 TDI SE Technology automatic estate. Just waiting for the dealer to do the cam belt/water pump change and gearbox service 
Photos to follow once I get it home
by which time I'm sure I will have questions

I loved my Favvy estate right up until it was stolen and never to be seen again.

And so it begins, even before I've taken delivery of the car.Looks like I'll be joining the Skoda family later this week with a late 2017 Superb 2.0 TDI SE Technology automatic estate. Just waiting for the dealer to do the cam belt/water pump change and gearbox service

The car has SmartLink+ which, if I've understood correctly, gives me wired Apple CarPlay? Is there an easy way to make the connection wireless?
In my existing MB I have CarPlay enabled but that is only wired too but I bought a USB dongle that gives wireless CarPlay. Is something like that available for the Superb?
