Just wondering what it'd be worth :-)

Worth more broken buddy as countless people have found out. As a whole though and due to age mileage and points noted mostly the faded paint issue. I'd say £1k tops. Sad I know but true.

Worth far more keeping it and running it into the ground, I reckon.

I think the Mk1 vRS has entered that weird stage in its life.

 

The value has completely dropped off and over the next couple of years a lot will be off-roaded / scrapped / broken. After that period, the few remaining "minters" with low mileage will start to increase in value and the car will begin its journey to classic car / retro status, much like Sierras, Escorts and other 90's motors are doing at present.

Be lucky to get a grand tbh on a yplate.

Its never going to be in the league of those cars being a Skoda.

Ohh I wish I'd kept all the mexico's and rs2000's I had in the 80's I even scrapped a couple when they failed MOT. It's surprising what was once worthless now commands good money. Can't get an RS 2000 for under £5k now. And good ones go for £15k. The mk1 octy VRS will follow suit.

Same as the MK1 Fabia vRS

 

Rare (ish) as they don't make a diesel anymore... look after and SE and you can bet you'll have some good returns.

Oh okay, thought it'd be worth a lot more tbh :-( Ah well, guess I'll stick with it, just was thinking of getting a diesel. Looks like more mods to come in the future :-D

Will have to agree to disagree.

 

Fabia vRS even more lolworthy.  Not like either of these cars are particularly popular, sought after or well thought of outside of Skoda owners.

Exactly. And back in the day I struggled to get scrappies to take away Mk2 Rs 2000's

I know scary isn't it now you'd be fighting them off with a stick. 

Fabia vrs not sought after or popular? They made 30,000 and they don't make one like it anymore... I'd say it was...
