When a company names its car ‘Superb’ you may think they’re hyping themselves up somewhat. Well, in this instance, Škoda absolutely nailed it – as I shall now explain.

View PostThe Škoda Karoq Edition, a rather sensible SUV
Family SUVs can be dull, dreary things these days, but thankfully you have offerings such as the Škoda Karoq Edition.
