If paddleshift isn't an option, I'm sure a retrofit would be possible

Race Blue Hatch with 18" and Dual Climate. Thought I'd play it safe first time out.

Paddle shift is due to follow later in the year by all accounts. And I'm sure I read somewhere that the DSG may find its way onto the TFSi vRS at some point but can't for the life of me find where I saw that.

Is it just me, but the figures for the CR engine (on the skoda UK website) seem to be the same as the PD version, is this correct?

So what is the advantage of the CR over the PD engine, if the performance and economy are the same?

Going on the specs I can find online the only thing I can see is the CR being lighter.
