Just brought it home, now has 30miles on it (service interval not showing yet!!!). Race Blue VRS Estate with dual zone, 18's, Maxidot, Cruise, Jumbo and elec rear windows. Looks better than I thought, probably because this one's mine.

Got a bit of reading to do now so I can find my way around the gadgets. Have to say I'm feeling 'dead chuffed'. :)

Don't expect to hear much from you for a while then - you'll be too busy grinning.

Welcome to the world of MkII vRS ownership, an exclusive club of over 2,000 members. Enjoy

Nice choice in motor. Enjoy it mate.

Oh, and keep an eye on the oil! They do drink a bit when they are newborn.

What did you have before?

I don't know about just when new but constantly!!!

Well to be honest the VRS is a bit of comedown as it meant saying goodbye to my hooligan Multipla!

To be fair to myself I do ride an Aprilia Futura and my wife and son have Toyotas, Supra and Celica GT4 respectively so my life hasn't lacked for 'performance' when I'd had enough of sensible.

Hey no harm having a Multipla :eek: My wife's car is a Doblo Great vehicle - bags of room, torquey 1.9JTD engine and great handling (for a van)!

I'm sure you will be well please with the vRS - Performance? Its got plenty :eek:

I noticed the statistic in this post about an exclusive club of 2000 members. Is this in the UK or worldwide. Mines on its way but incredibly i've only seen one on the road (plus the dealer demo) so far. Do you know if sales are higher or lower than Skoda expected? How many examples of Mk1 did they sell??

2,000 is sales of the MkII vRS in the UK during 2006 iirc out of a total of 17,900 UK sales of OctyII's.

There was a RR day in Portsmouth yeaterday where there were SEVEN OctyII vRS's in the same place at the same time, the most I think there have been outside a dealer network!.

Any info on results from the MkII vRS, modded and not ?PM me if people don't want them posted

Me too. I want to see if any of these standard 2.0 Ts made more than the 197bhp.:confused:

The only standard run of the 2.0T FSI's did 201bhp and 240ft/lbs so as near as dammit, on the 'money'.

We all make quoted power in standard form near as damn it.

What is the car setup for from new - variable or fixed intervals.

I asked my dealer and he hadn't a clue. They just wrote in the book, next service at 15k km / Jan 08, and printed underneath is service due at date above or when service warning thingy comes on, which ever is first.

I only do around 15k km a year anyway, and alot of city driving so I suppose once a year is probably spot on.

What oil do I get then to top up with during the year ?

These 2,000 vRS in 2006 must mostly be TFSI engined.

However, talking to my dealer on Monday when ordering a vRS TDI it seems like the vRS TDI is presently outselling the vRS TFSI by about 5 - 1 (from his dealership experience and interest) and the trend is expected to continue.

A new wave of cool, perhaps? following on from the 'cool' of the Fabis vRS.
