The AWX in a Skoda Superb (Mk 1) is an excellent proposition in terms of performance against fuel consumption if you can find a good one. There is a narrow time window in which the AWX was offered in a body with folding rear seats, so you would have to look hard if this feature is important to you.
The higher powered 1.9 PDs seem to be attracting a price premium now as the later engines are so poor. Avoid the 150 PS PD (transverse only, I think).
A lot of Superbs have been cabbed/abused/neglected and it is essential to address the design problems and maintain them properly. This cannot be done on a shoe string.
A good one properly maintained will run to starship mileages.
