Superb Estate

I don't think the full-on proper pics have been done here before. Looks good for £17k and up, and I'm sure a 3.6 AWD DSG will tickle someones fancy.



I'm not sure about the side on view with the overhangs, but it looks good from the 3/4, and the interior looks Golfy.

That doesn't look too bad at all. 'Course the badge snobs won't like it...

I don't care what badge is on it.  I think it looks bloody awful.
Frank Bullitt

Love it.
BeN

It looks too big.

I don't think I've even seen such overhangs, it makes the saloon look attractive (not an easy thing to do).  Horrible

Is that what it was? I thought it was a twin axle caravan.  
Mark

I'm no fan, but it looks slightly better than the saloon.
Dr. Hfuhruhurr

I like it, but then I like the saloon as well.

Don't mind the saloon but not for the first time I prefer the estate.

If I was of retirement age and thinking about getting a keeper a Superb would be top of my list.

It does look a bit of a lardy lump but it has clean and unfussy lines and that in itself is worth praising these days considering what they might have done.
PG

In terms of cubic metres per £ this has to be the clear winner. Generally I really like that and somehow the front looks better balanced by the estate body - or have they changed the lights ever so slightly?

Looks a bit rear-heavy/front light in this one.
Guitar Zero

Very nice, like that lots.

It's a proper estate for people who want to carry stuff, not something that will appeal to those marketing wet dream "lifestyle " pricks who normally buy S Line Avants or M Sport tourings because they've got a wet suit and a body board, or because they bought a Yukka from B&Q in 2007.

Big, refined, comfy - something that's actually fit for purpose.

That's ok in a fairly unpretentious way.
At least the sides are relatively free of excessive surfacing details.

The severe shutline above the headlights reminds me of the brows of the newsreader on The Muppets.

I like it, but I prefer the odd shape of the saloon in profile.

The 130i balanced it out!!

Those days are behind me now....
