| Briskodian | Want to know price, engine, performance, what it looks like, basically anything. All I know at the moment is the expected date. Anything you can tell me would be great.

| So far all information on the vRS is purely rumour. Some more informed than others.

| Briskodian | They are making 2 Octavia VRS's. 1) 2.0TDi 16v PD (170bhp) 2) 2.0FSi 8v (200bhp) As for prices, the diesel is going to be more expensive, but I think the FSi will be a shade under Ł17,000. I reckon it'll be quick alright, with the diesel having some serious tuning potential, I don't see 200bhp being a problem. It will have 17" alloys standard, but all first UK spec cars (Demos) will be coming with 18" alloys. That's all I know. |

| Has VW actually approved production of a new 200BHP vRS? Or is this all just speculation?

| Briskodian | Why not to stop all speculation someone mabye a member of staff {as they should be trusted to report accuratly} contact SKoda & reask the question then post as a sticky the information thus hopefully answering the overall question? just a thought. |

| We won't know any details befire the official launch. Skoda's hardly going to release details to us lot a few months before the official press launch, are they? I think a sticky saying "No we don't know anything about the vRS so stop asking" would be good.
