As it's asked from time to time...

Lowering kit for Octy vRS - official Skoda item:

Oooh, interesting!

Who's going to give it a go then!

Since when has this become available and what is the part no/ref for it?.

Any difference in the spring rates, or are they simply shorter?

Will ask for more detail later...

My dealer has just looked up the Sports Kit which lowers all cars except 4x4 and cars alread fitted with sports suspension (vRS), by 30mm.

Is your dealer getting confused do you think?

I did ask for confirmation on vRS, which he did, but I'll check again...

£755??? blimey.

Or you could get Eibach springs which lower by 30mm for £150 plus fitting!!

I think he may be confused. It did exclude 4x4s but he said the parts guy searched specifically on vrs (so might have come up in text specifying the exclusion?)

I mentioned the rumour of 20mm lower option in some mainland territories and he said if the above *is* a mistake he'd dig further.

He's also looking into Maxidot retrofitting...

Please keep me posted, I have been trying to get this info for a while!!!

Based on Maxidot retrofitting on the Fabia being considered high-risk and expensive by dealer (+ me) alike (at least in the UK) I would be surprised if the Octy one was much cheaper. The only thing in favour of it would be that the Maxidot is far more common on the Octy (Mk2) then on the Fabia (as you can order it without having to have satnav, unlike on the Fabia).

Definitely interested in this too
