@hereistand2008 If you listen, they are trying to get the message across to idiots like you that Skoda are now closer to so-called premium brands than you realise. The Skoda looks great, the Merc looks, well, FUGLY! who the hell designed that front end, a 2 year old?

Hmm, At least Skoda make reliable, well liked cars. Look at sniffpetrol . com, look at the 'not an advertisments' section - hilarious! They really love BMW's there - NOT!

At the end of the day though, no offence to anyone, but each to their own, and actually, Skodas and their owners do have class these days - as the driver of both due to the nature of my job, I and my colleagues do prefer the Skodas over the BMW's for their great dynamics and looks.

@moneshmahtani hahaha! Mercedes competitors is Rolls, Bentley and Maybach? You don't know how to classify 'exclusive luxury' brand and 'normal luxury' brand then. BTW, Maybach is Mercedes. Merc competitors are BMW, Lexus, Audi and some more.

I own a skoda octavia. Luv frm india.

[Killzon3commander]

Mercs look awesome .

anyways, in India the E class base model is for 40lacs while the Skoda superb is for 20 lacs.

now you can see how much these "luxury brands" rip 3rd world countries off.

Skoda doesnt deploy these tactics they dont have much of a brand image over here like Mercedes and BMWs do

[moneshmahtani]

@bmwmakecrap have you owned a mercedes? No. why? You have no money to buy excelence, thats why the only mercedes a skoda can win against is a c class the rest are too good for skoda.

[moneshmahtani]

Mercedes is the best,as usual nothing compares but maybach bentley and rolls royce those are the only competitors mercedes has the rest are nothing compared to mercedes.

[josef733]

look,its mercades. they win all the time. but the skoda is just a little bit crappier against a very good sedan.also the skoda cost 5000 pounds less so the superb is worth it.

[bluesman12125]

you know, the skoda is a very good car, but it is boring as hell and ugly. And don't think for a second build-quality is as good as Audi. It's certain it's as good as in a volkswagen thow.
