Will a Skoda Superb suit my needs?

I want to buy a diesel car for a round trip daily commute of 160km, which is mainly motorway. As I have neck/back problems I want to pick up a comfortable and somewhat luxurious car. I was thinking the Skoda Superb Elegance Greenline 2 (2011), as I have a budget after haggling of about €16.5k. Do you think this is a good choice or do you have an alternative to this? And what is your opinion on private vs dealer sale of the type of car I'm going for?

How much will I get off a nearly new sports hatch?

I'm interested in buying a year old Audi S3 , Merc A 45 AMG, Golf R or BMW M135i; what sort of reduction should I expect off the new price. I.e. should I pay now for 132/141 one of the above? Garages have said they will import to meet my needs if required.

Would a high-mileage, private Octavia be ok?

Hello there, would a Skoda Octavia (1.4/1.6 petrol 2005-2007) be worth buying? Especially with a higher mileage of 150,000km and more? And would it be risky buying from a private seller? Dealers are dear...

Thank you very much for your answer
