| Briskodian |  VRS Might go solo I was in the dealers today arranging the collection of my new VRS FAbia and in the conversation we had up came two topics of conversation. This might be a re-post of old information; I don't know... The first was that Skoda is now making over 80% of the engines for VW; apparently their failure rate is less than the German made engines. The second is Skoda is considering releasing the VRS as a separate range i.e. as in Lexus. I'm not sure how true any of this is! He said he'd just come back from a VW organised trip in the mother-land... Personally I'm not sure!!!!  Novice |

| I was under the impression that the vRS was a car in its own right... On many websites, the Fabia then goes into all the derivatives except the vRS, and then the Fabia vRS is listed separately...

| I read somewhere that Lexus were considering dropping "Lexus" lights as they were no longer exclusive items!  Chris
