Full performance figures...?

MrkyMrk · 10-10-2006, 13:06

Anyone know of a full set of official performance figures (including in-gear) to enable comparison of vRS Mk 1 to vRS Mk 2 (2.0 TFSI).

I'm just curious, is all. Interested to know if it just feels significantly faster or actually is significantly faster. The 0-100 KPH figures alone don't appear to reflect this (because of a necessary change from 2nd to 3rd in MK2 not required in MK1?) I wouldn't have thought an extra 20 bhp on the old car would have made this much difference, but power delivery curves and gear ratios impact, obviously. How much, tho...?

Ta.

Drop an email to Skoda UK via their website. This is the kind of inforamtion that they ARE happy to give out.

When I contacted them on an MPG related issue they phoned me with the information then followed it up with a letter confirming the data.

I should say it took them nearly a week to get back to me though - so dont discount them if you hear nothing for a few days.
