Was just curious on how popular the new VRS is and how many we're going to see on the road. How many have of you have already got or ordered the new VRS?

I'll start

Ordered TDI manual Estate in Brilliant Silver (totally standard no options)

Suppose this will also be a good way of seeing what colours and options are popular,cheers Lee

There's a good number on the owners register stickied to the top of this forum.

Also I'd guess there would be a higher than normal representation of vRS orders on the forum as they're probably more attractive to the type of people who're interested enough to frequent a car forum.

I'm moving from a bogo mk1 fabia vrs to vRS tdi manual estate, race blue, heated screen seats and nossles, Amundsen sat nav, ami and spare wheel.

Ordered on the 13th of july: tfsi, dsg, estate, race blue, black package, adaptive cruisecontrol, phone box, ,RS leather seats, backseat and windshield heating, columbus/canton w/lane assist. 18" gemini antrasitt - summer, 18" turini black - winter. Build week 38!

Hi I ordered a VRS TDI DSG estate in white on the 27th July with the following options: Black Pack, Columbus Sat Nav with colour maxidot, Kessy, Intelligent Park Assist, Winter Pack, Cruise Control, Variable boot floor, Canton and Sunset glass. It's being built this week coming I can't wait!

This will be replacing my 2011 Octavia VRS estate.

Picked up my Race Blue TSI Estate- Standard spec with spacesaver spare, on 16th Sept 2013. 

Interior Black /grey.

 

Traded in Mk 2 Octavia vRS.

White hatch TSI with Black Pack on order.

VRS petrol manual estate (red) on order: I'm told build week is week 42.  No tearing hurry - the current one is going fine.

 

The current Octavia (white) is my second vRS estate: the first (race blue) was a diesel manual, this one a petrol DSG as my annual mileage is about 12,000 rather than 20,000 as before. The DSG works very well except that sometimes one feels that it's holding the car back a little from the acceleration that the engine is capable of. So the next one will be a manual - and should do me until I get too old and go back to an automatic.

I was very tempted by a Golf GTI, but the extra room of the Octavia is still useful, and the new one has exactly the same engine as the Mark VII GTI.

 

Jewsons Skoda of Oxford are excellent as always: they are owned by Ridgeway and are about to change their name to Ridgeway to avoid confusion with the builders' merchants.

Looks like Race Blue is the winner so far, I loved it in the brochure pictures but didn't have the balls to stand out too much, Brilliant silver might be a bit boring but like it for the subtleness and only those in the know will know what car it is.

You guys with the meteor grey very brave.

Rallye Green very admirable

Thanks. I've owned 6 previous cars, with all of them being a variation of silver or grey. Thought it was time for a change!

My liking of green and yellow was vetoed by the missus and my daughter.

Hey ho, black it is then. :-D
