This sounds suspiciously similar to the 'Fabia SDi upgraded to a vrS' that was on EBay recently, link is here if you want to see what everyone thought about it.

I could of course be doing the seller a grave injustice, but I would be extremely cautious.

The vehicle details for W96 AFV are:

Date of Liability 01 07 2005
Date of First Registration 20 03 2000
Date of Last V5 Issue 22 06 2004
Year of Manufacture 2000
Cylinder Capacity (cc) 1984CC
CO2 Emissions Not Available
Fuel Type Petrol
Export Marker Not Applicable
Vehicle Status Licence Not Due
Vehicle Colour GREY

Side air bags, Audi TT engine, full body kit, owned by VolksWagen - and call me on my mobile! Yes, it sounds remarkably like a variation on the yellow Fabia featured here recently. ivankali, I think you have just earned yourself membership of Briskoda's B Team.

Good game Good game

At this rate we should be able to keep the vRS exclusive, as people will be wary about advertising them on e bay
