|  Should I buy a VRS? Hello, I need to sell my Ibiza TDI as my wife is about to have a baby and I need something with 4 doors and a bigger boot, so I'm thinking of getting a Fabia VRS. Does anybody have the boot measurements? Also my Ibiza has climate control, does the VRS or is it just air conditioning? ... and whats the difference between the standard and SE? Cheers Andy |

| Re: Should I buy a VRS? I thought the Polo, Fabia & Ibiza were all on the same platform so boot size would be the same? |

| Re: Should I buy a VRS? Excellent, cheers for that. This travel system I've got is 106cm long and 61cm wide so I need the boot to be at least 106cm wide. It only just won't fit in the Ibiza so I was thinking the Fabia might be a little bit wider |

| Re: Should I buy a VRS? Sorry dont know about actua dimensions you need to have someone scan in their fabia brochure (no longer available at the dealers as the car is no longer on sale as a new car). |

| Re: Should I buy a VRS? IMHO the fabia is not going to be the car you need as it is based on the same platform you already have. I'd be looking up a class too in your position.
