New member - Skoda

[CaffeineAU]

Hi All,

I'm picking my my Skoda Superb wagon this weekend. It's to replace my Peugeot 308 as my 2 year old son now puts his feet on the headrest of the passenger seat. I'm 2m tall so finding a car with legroom for me and back seat room for how tall I expect my son to get was a challenge.

I'm a hardware/software test engineer so I'll be reading up on all of the info on how to fiddle with the car's settings A workmate is an ex-Audi automotive software engineer with plenty of experience with the internals of the system so I'll be leaning on his expertise a fair bit.

Welcome bud! We have a facebook group for Skoda Enthusiasts - "Skoda Modderz" if your keen to join. If your keen to tinker get an OBDEleven it allows you to change settings on the car that wasnt activated from standard.

Holy crap it's quick!

0-100 best of 5.00 using the skoda one app. Next best are a 5.03 and 5.04

And that was in the Dealers driveway.

Good to see another person who disregards the "run in" period.

Hehe it was one of the 48 hour test drive cars, so I expect that it's very well run in
