I would suggest to avoid superb at any cost since you do not want to bring home a white elephant.

No ancer the car is not for sale as it is being used by my cousins and generally the cars are sold only when replacements are about to come. it would be quite a wait.
My suggestion is follow your heart and you would be happy. Something you like might not be liked by others. There would dime a dozen people who repair these cars but a honest person is who you need and secondly the ready availability of parts.

I would not call the Skoda a white elephant but yes it is not exactly the cheapest cars to maintain either. A friend of mine has no complains with his superb.

Buying a used skoda, and that too superb!!!!

You will pay more than car purchase amount on ***!!!

Avoid at any cost.

2.4 accord is way ahead than sonata in terms of drivability as we as FE (only little ahead).

That might be one of the cases !!

I would buy the Accord.

Look cost of upkeep and it's effect on the owner is relative. If someone owns both a Merc E or S (or equivalent) and a Superb, he'd say that Skoda service was cheap or appropriately priced.

Follow your heart. I personally hate Skodas and think that they have 0 brand image. However they do offer excellent kit. I know many people who are happy with their Skoda cars, and quite a few compare the Superb directly to the D+ segment (German trio)

The 25000 km service of my CRV was done today and costed me Rs. 1048, all inclusive.
(The service centre refused to change the oil/filters because my car had covered low mileage since last service.)

Buy the accord.

I used to think the Cielo maintenance costs are high till I bought the Tata Safari, and then thought the same about it till I bought the Skoda Laura and then now think that it is all fine seeing the mantenance cost of various merc that that my Company Chariman owns.

It is up to you, and different countries may have different qualities, but my sister in law in Maryland, US bought a 2004 Accord in 2007 with 90,000 miles, and not a problem so far after 30 mths.
