if you can live with people taking the piss out of it being a skoda, and youo can get past the attutude that all skodas are shit and see it for teh car it is. then thoes performance figures will answer itself.

 

Ive driven a skoda and I have to say I was very impressed with its handling, I got in thinking it was going to be pants, how wrong was I. Its a VW, but a lot cheaper, nuff said.

Have to agree, they do make very good cars now. I just couldnt handle everyone laughing and taking the piss :x:

Good cars but I'd go for the diesel, just as quick and cheaper to run

Well i test drove it and I must say, very impressed, goes well and handles excellent.

 

fantastic interior, dual zone climate control, half leather seats, various other bits.

 

Gonna have a think about it

joke's on them though really isn't it.

The VR-s is an awesome bit of kit, and bloody easy to eek more power out of. Very reliable (same engine as the Audi TT 1.8 TT 225bhp engine)

 

Youll never fool petrol heads by de-bagding it, but most petrol heads will know its no ordinary skoda and a very capable car. De badging it just fool the "badge yuppies" out there as you blitz past them in theyre silly 325 beemers etc

 

Go for it

ide keep it as a badged skoda and own the ultimate "sleeper" :bow:

iff i was to buy a tdi then thats the car ide get and fvk the crowds
