Hi i'm new to all this

Featured Replies

Hello out there, i am quite new to all this, and although i love my car very much and i know its had some modifications, i am not really much up on technical jargon.

I have managed to purchase a white skoda octavia Vrs, i am on the understanding that this is unusual as they dont normally come in this colour, is this right? :confused:

Candy white is not listed as an option for the vRS which makes your car unusual although not unique. Welcome to Briskoda, and I see that you have already been modding your car. :D

Is it a LTD Edition vRS? Any Green features on the car?

Hello

Yes, if you have a white Octy RS, either somebody has given it a respray or you have a limited edition WRC Octy built to celebrate 100 years of Skoda motorsport. If it has such bits as xenon head lights and heated front seats, it is one of the latter. Owners of the limited edition Octy's will now doubt tell you more.

hi everyone thanks for the replies.

i will let you all into a little secret about my whiteVrs.

it was actually ordered by the Devon and Cornwall Constabulary, but it was sent by accident to a skoda dealership,who immediately registered the car. The police did try to get the car back, but unfortunatley for them i'm not handing over to any one. love my car.

If it's got white wheels, xenon headlamps, heated front seats, side airbags, a single CD + 6 CD changer and an ESP button on the dash, then it's WRC spec.

If it's a WRC edition, you're likely to have a little aluminium plate on the dash with a number on it. In which case, it's a deliveried WRC. Originally it probably had stickers all over it like mine. If not, it's probably either

1. One of some mythical 'spare' WRC editions shipped to the UK without numbers just in case any of the originals got mullered on the trip over here

2. Ex police

3. Cancelled police order

One of two by a certain cornish dealer IIRC as thats where I picked mine up from, although this was a destickered (de greened really) WRC ltd spec version. Somebody did turn up with a plain white perhaps it was what you are now driving ;)

the guy i got the car off (mentioning no names), who works at a certain cornish dealership, was very pleased with himself about getting the car.
