Picked it up today, drove 150 miles back home with a smile on my face. What a car. Much better than my TDCi Mondeo.

Glad you like it - I've got a Laguna 1.9 DCi as a company car and at least once a week I've got to grab the Fabia keys off the wife so I can experience how much better the vRS really is.

Those who are afraid of what friends and colleagues may say about someone driving a Skoda are really missing out on a great drive, their loss not ours...

Welcome to Skoda ownership.

I was affraid what friends and colleagues thought - but.... a friend and colleague of mine has gone out to buy a Fabia vRS - I take that as a compliment for me buying a Fabia! (he could have bought a different colour though).

Glad to see you enjoy it hellfire......1,356 miles on mine, just keeps getting better
