They say the camera never lies. :rofl:

Well, it is a standard octy vRS, so I'm happy my car got to 60 0.36 seconds quicker. :P :P

[Thirdtimeluck]

nice

I timed myself and got just under 8 BUT it did look like you had trouble getting traction at the start... I dont think for a minute that my car is quicker - don't worry

Third time lucky then!!

jonnyboy timed his Fabia (Amd vRS) at 6.4 secs to 60mph

How is that "third time lucky" then?

Yeh but how much power was that vrs putting out?

180 and 300+

Exactly.

My car is nippy for what it is - trust me.

In the right revs - 4 -5kish It pulls like a train - in every gear

I'm not one to often doubt figures, but 6.4 from just an AMD remapped vRS is pushing the limits of my belief. I got 7.31 with a good start, and timed by proper timing gear, complete with the ideal little stick to shove in the wheel arch, so it knows precisely once you've stopped doing zero mph.

For any remapped Fabia to get a true under 7 seconds 0-60 is good going.

:agree:

TBH on most of the roads around here - you dont really NEED anything quicker.

But then again - ya have gotta love having more POWER!

Do Skoda claim 7.1 to 62?

Not the 0-60 means anything I would expect to see 6.5's for the new Octy:)

I believe the official figures are 7.3 secs to 100km/hr.

What's this "standard" business, as well?
