        Getting more and more confusing now. Looks like the brochure online is on MY11, no mention of the 103TDI.

        Went to dealer today, he has no idea of MY12! He hasn't even heard of Lava Blue. The brochure he has is the old one. He even said there is no change with the MY12

          Get used to it. It seems from what I have read here over the last 18 months that the average Skoda dealer knows more about Ladas than they do about what is happening with Skoda in Australia.

            The 103 TDi price as you'll see above, has been on the web for days so if the dealers don't even know that price something is wrong. I'd expect most in Melb should as Skoda will be on show as of tonight in a big way here. Bad timing for Preston to be shutting down.....

              Dealer pricing was sent out a week ago so the dealers should be able to give a idea on price. No word on an official launch date as of yet for the 103TDI and no word on updated brochures for the MY12 brochures. At the moment the only Australian source for detail is the Skoda website. Hopefully after the motor show more details will start to flow through on all the new models.

                Just put the order in today. It is official now that Rosso Brunello is discontinued So is storm blue, Amazonian green and mocca brown. The new color they replaced, lava blue and whatever green are a lot brighter and flashier than the storm blue and amzonian green respectively.

                This is disaster! Superb is a formal, limousine like car, which IMO should go with the darker formal colors like all the ones they discontinue! Not replacing them with some funky color that suits smaller cars or sports cars. Even the dealer manager was concerned how will Skoda sell those colors!! (well, that only my opinion, no offense to anyone who likes bright color)

                Anyway, at least black is still available and that is the one I ticked (the only one I can tick, I won't get silver/grey under any circumstances)

                At least I get front parking sensors and Bluetooth!

                Those of you who got the discontinued colors, I envy you....

                  You'll enjoy black. And you'll enjoy cleaning it, and cleaning it and cleaning it......

                  But it's worth it!

                    I know all black cars needs to have regular cleaning to stay shiny. But all colors are the same. My wife's old Honda Odyssey was in "antique bronze" color (which looked more dark grey to me), it looked awful when not cleaned. I just didn't have to motivation to clean an Odyssey. But I'm sure with a Superb....

                    And I got beige interior with beige floor, I really will enjoy cleaning it, and cleaning it, and cleaning it.........

                    I already got the smile in my face even though my car is still 6 months away!

                      It turns out I only got my Storm Blue one with only a few days to spare. I placed my order on the 10th of February and if I waited until the 13th or later I would have missed out. With the colors that have been discontinued I think that black would now be my number one choice.

                      The Beige interior looks very nice. I was going to go with Beige but then I thought I would have a bugger of a time trying to keep it clean so I wimped out and got black lol. I was talking with the Service Manager a few days ago and people with the Beige interiors are ordering the black carpet mats for the black on beige look. Every time I try to picture it I think why the hell would you do that lol.

                        Just discovered from Briskoda. The reason Skoda discontinued Rosso Brunello and all those good color is due to the tsunami in Japan! Apparently it's to do with a color pigment that was manufactured by the factory in the region affected. Obviously they have to source this pigment somewhere else (most likely Korea), so the quality of these new color will look more Hyundai than Lexus.

                        That explain the reason for these odd new color.

                        Darn!! This tsunami really affect my purchasing! First I crashed my contract with the Passat because of no RVC from Japan. Now I can't get my first choice color with the Superb because of the tsunami again!

                        Lucky they still have black. If even black is out, I don't know what else would I choose.

                        Well, perhaps when the factory in Japan is back online, RB will be available again when my lease is due next time in 2015! Here's hope.
