Over here in busted Ireland we took delivery last year of the poor man's VW - a Skoda Superb diesel, which has proved to be a great, comfortable-motorway eater. Basically it's a VW Passat with more legroom in the back made in Czechoslovakia. Quality of build appears to be exactly the same - we've had no problems at all in our first 30K km of Skodaing. Now it's off to Spain in June transporting three intrepid walkers who are doing the first section of the Camino pilgrim trail. Myself, I'll just settle for an amble with a camera... :-) >Here are a few shots of what you can look it while >waiting for hours for them to get it ready.
