Is the Octavia VRS common in Russia? And how much does it sell for?

In 2006 only 160 cars in whole Russia. We can not buy TDi verison of vRS - only TFSi.

I think he means the cost of the car itself.

They not offer this version in Russia. Our diesel fuel is not good for modern engines.

Some good pics - keep your eyes open for the 2008 Brisky Calender competition (assuming PussCat is kind enough to do one again)

Is that the part of the river where they have the tourist boats tied up near the bridge? I seem to remember their being a nightclub or something alongside the river near there too. IIRC one of those boats is a male entertainment saloon
