Has anyone heard about or got pictures of the new Octavia vRS (due in December 2005)?

What do you want to know?

Want to know price, engine, performance, what it looks like, basically anything. All I know at the moment is the expected date.

Anything you can tell me would be great.

So far all information on the vRS is purely rumour. Some more informed than others.

interesting that skoda germany list the old car for the 2006 model year.....

They are making 2 Octavia VRS's.

1) 2.0TDi 16v PD (170bhp)

2) 2.0FSi 8v (200bhp)

As for prices, the diesel is going to be more expensive, but I think the FSi will be a shade under

Sources?

The FSi is a 16v engine not 8v.

Skoda Octavia vRS

New-generation vRS models to come with choice of the 2.0 TDI diesel (170 bhp) or 2.0 FSI petrol (200 bhp) engines, the latter as in Golf GTI. On sale October

Has VW actually approved production of a new 200BHP vRS? Or is this all just speculation?

Why not to stop all speculation someone mabye a member of staff {as they should be trusted to report accuratly} contact SKoda & reask the question then post as a sticky the information thus hopefully answering the overall question? just a thought.

We won't know any details befire the official launch. Skoda's hardly going to release details to us lot a few months before the official press launch, are they? I think a sticky saying "No we don't know anything about the vRS so stop asking" would be good.

been there done it

Similar to what I ghad in mind however that does not seem to have come into fruition, and its not sticky afaik, but on the correct lines, just need staff to sort it out ;-)

The FSi is a 16v engine not 8v.

The 2.0 FSi 150bhp is an 8v engine.
