I currently have a Peugeot 406 Estate but looking to get the new Skoda. I've heard a lot about the car and it's unique boot but does anyone know how many suitcases it will actually hold?

Its like the dark hole of Calcutta in there but you can now order the estate version it has more room than the old Volvo 740 estate, that could carry a wardrobe

I can take 3 Clients and 3 large suitcases with room for coats and some smaller hand luggage or shotgun cases in the new superb saloon, theres also a fair amount of space between the rear customers if an extra bit of space is needed...if they travel heavier than that then they should book a Pickfords Scammel.

The Boot lid/tailgate is great...just remember to leave out the parcel shelf before you set away as it blocks up spare space..

Now all you need to do is actually find these 3 punters in this economic climate. :mrgreen:

Its so fast you cannot notice the gear changes, you can play in manual mode or full auto.
You can get 4 6ft6 passengers and all there luggage in the car no problem

Go to your dealers and ask for a half day test drive I am sure they will oblige, the dealers up here do that I had a Superb DSG for 24 hours
If you decide to go for one, go for the 170bhp tdi cr
I will be getting the estate version next year
