I saw a yellow Fabia 07 plate today on the Edinburgh Bypass, it was a VRS and it had a Dark badge under the vrs logo.

It had full tints anthacite alloys and black Lexus style lights at the back.

Looked nice apart from the lights.

Was this "special edition" available nation wide or was it a dealer tart up model?

West End Garage seem to like uping the spec sometimes and give them an extra name badge on the boot like they did with some MK1 Octy VRS with the larger boot spoiler and called it a VRS WRC.

It sounds like a dealer tart up model.

As far as I know there haven't been any specials apart from the run out SE.

agreed, there have been a couple of "dealer specials" detailed on here....

it was a dealer special form West End Garage in Broxburn - I test drove it at the start of the year before buying my SE.

as well as what you mentioned, it was full leather inside.

Come to think of it Ken, one of the service staff at West End had a MK1 Octy VRS Estate in black and it had a Dark sticker under the Octy VRS badge on the boot and the only noticable difference was full tints.

I test drove that very car 6 months befor I ended up buying my current Octy

(n.b. this has absolutely no bearing on the current thread :lol:)

funny you should bring this post up. i parked next to that car two weeks ago at braehead and took a picture of it and it was from west end garage. thought it may have been a dealer tart up. lights were bad but apart from that it looked good

i made the 'dark' stickers they are fitted with

I hear there is a Superb "Dark" as well. . .
