Could be a fun drive -threat to Fiesta ST?

Edited 1 September, 201510 yr by vrskeith

Yes seen this in Autoexpress this morning.

Skoda need to release a VRS Fabia now.

As a threat to the Fiesta ST that will be no, the ST is awesome. We have one with Mountune and it is truly brilliant.

That looks pretty cool. The interior is great.

I saw the new Fabia Monte Carlo over the weekend. That really is a good looking car. Would be great if they had a Vrs to match the power to the looks

Skoda would find it hard to sell a Fabia Hot Hatch in the UK for the same price Volkswagen are selling the 2015 Polo GTI at as a loss leader.

The All New Fabia 1.4 TDI or 1.2 TSI with decent trim and a few options costs more than a 2015 Polo GTI 1.8TSI can be had for.

 

It will be interesting to see how much the Seat Ibiza Cupra 3 door 1.8 TSI Manual costs when available in the UK.
