still waiting for the cleaners to finish it up so i can take piccys

good thing its not for a delivery!!

VRS 203 · 13-12-2007, 15:37

Here's a few from Alex Lawrie Skoda.
He's just got a black one in, 1.2 i think.
Im thinking about it!

I would like a 1.9 TDI though.

Seats are nice, yes.

Sorry for hi-jacking your thread woodenspatulas.

Johnwg · 13-12-2007, 15:42

Now that looks a bit better. Love the front spolier

, and the interior looks good

Skodaboy1983 · 13-12-2007, 15:42

Me likes, would have to be the 1.9tdi through

OctaviaT81 · 13-12-2007, 15:42

Thanks for the pics, interior is very similar to my Roomster Scout but the seats are more sports shaped and have a different upholstery.

I'm surprised the dealers have them already as Skoda only announced their existence about a week ago!

Looking forward to seeing more pics although I reckon it will look best in the strong colours like red and yellow.

Skodaboy1983 · 13-12-2007, 15:44

Think black suits it as well, not sure on yellow on the new fabia yet.

no probs fella, that look mint in balck, i will put some of mine up as its soo different in black to yellow. i prefer the black myself!

Conshine · 13-12-2007, 17:58

It looks alright, but look at the gaps between the wheel and the arch it's HUGE, they could have lowered it a touch!!

I was expecting small things like a different gear shift etc, just to set it a bit aside from the normal one?

Hopefully, IF they do do a vRS it will have all these nice touched finished off?

It's got the leather pack with 3 spoke wheel, leather handbrake cover and gearknob which all feel really nice to the touch.

Can anyone confirm if it's available to order with the climatronic as it doesn't say so on the Skoda UK website. And does it have 8 speakers like the Fabia2 or 4 like the Fabia1?

8 speakers in this one here. but i cant find anything on climate just yet but i'll check on the system tommorrow

Joff · 13-12-2007, 20:57

See that with a bit of a tweak here and there in the engine and styling departments would easily pass as a vRS and keep most people happy for a few years! Where's Skoda's sense of adventure?

My seat style and trim on my 1.4 sport are almost the same. Both much nicer than the vrs seats IMO. I just went onto Skoda uk site an built my car, 1.9tdi, trip comp, Cruise con, steering controls, ESP, arm rest gota have 1

and floor mats. Price came to a cheap £14,233. So ill be taking skoda up on there offer and upgrade.

I no it might have been asked already, but what fugures are we looking at when comparing the 1.6 105ps to the 1.9 tdi 105ps. Whats the quicker of the two which will be more engine upgradeable?

mdk1 · 14-12-2007, 13:52

Is your in the showroom yet Dean?

pete.mcl · 14-12-2007, 17:16

Does that mean that they are arriving in retailers now? or was that a delivered order?
