It looks like the Vat free deal now applies to the Octavia/Roomster/Fabia ranges including the vRS, details here:

... and 0% finance too:

Škoda - Our Cars - Our Cars - Offers

Interesting... offer is on until end of December, my car is 3 years old at the start of December...

it does...I bought one!

2 years interest free or 1.5% flat (4.9%apr) over 3 years..only on new cars though

options list was vat free as well (not sure if this is standard..but my options were)

Hmmm, now will I be able to get this!!! please:(! I ordered, a month ago, with 0% and free servicing just before they offered vat off! the car is been built and is due in late Sept....

The discounts aren't all that different to what you'd have got with good haggling , but it does make it all a lot easier when it's on offer from the beginning.

what I haggled from the price was from the dealers profits, this is from SUK is it not? so there is still room for manoeuvre after that, surely?

Minimum 50% deposit to take advantage of too.
