I know it's a photoshop but just think about that with a 1.4 TSi in it

Now that I would consider buying!!

My number one project would be 1.8T Lupo, and that would pretty much negate the need for it

Looks nice.

Shame Skoda have said there will only ever be VRS versions of the fabia and Octavia.

Why does everyone put the horrible Fabia vRS wheels on things these days?!

There's gonna be an up! GT apparently, with a 1.0 3-pot turbo. It won't be in the Skoda though! Might not even be in the Seat!

They are generally accepted to be NOT horrible....That's why :wonder:

No, no... they're crap!

We like ours :yes:

Thanks for your opinion

To be fair, not as bad as the all-black ones... just... they don't seem to suit it? Not in the same way that the 16" Spiders suited the Mk1... Meh!

Why not the 1.2 TSI 105 as that would be more in keeping with the rest of the range.

If there's no vRS then hopefully there will at least be a Sport version. The basic one looks a bit puny but the photoshop at the top shows it at least has some potential!

reading on autocar vw have launched an up version of the gt,which has a 1.0 turbo so maybe skoda will probably do a vrs model

"VW a spiritual successor to the much-loved Lupo GTI."

Mmmm. I don't know about "much loved" as only sold 995 in the UK. However, I had one and it remains my favourite car I've owned.

I had a MKI and the Gigaro alloys on the MKII look way smarter (I've got Dark Chrome).

I like the look of this, hope they do decide to do this, would be a good choice for SWMBO.

We like ours :yes:

I Love my Fabia alloys

No, it's 1 with lots of extraneous decimal points

I'd order one of those now if it was in production!

Mine are all black and I love them; very easy to keep/appear clean.

Like this a lot. Looks great particularly in the green.

I think that Skoda are thinking much more of their 'Sporty' models being 'Sporty' only in looks and not in actual Performance.

http://www.briskoda....e-sporty-models

Among other VAG models like the New Audi A3 the 1.8 turbo has the same performance as a 1.4 TSI Fabia.

It is all now about Emissions or Perceived and published emissions if not actual real life.

The New Seat 150 BHP has the same quoted MPG as the 185bhp A1 and the 180 BHP VW Polo but these are quoted as better than those for the 180bhp Fabia.

(their own comparison on a VW Website shows the same engine on the Audi and VW as Twin Charger,Super and Turbo and the Skoda as Turbo.)

The Seat, Audi & VW are £120 road tax and the Skoda is £135.

The difference is the Tyre size and an extra weight under the rear bumper of the Skoda Hatchback.

VAG are at the capers with Skoda vehicles and its customers & i think their Performance & 'Sporty' as in better handling and a little faster but affordable car days are over.

They should make this. To hell with practicality!

Now that I would consider buying!!

Makes you wonder if the 1.8t would fit in a Citygo that only comes with a 3cyl...

No, let's not go there, I'm trying to be sensible!
