    RE: Hot or Not: Fabia VRS TDi

    Well it didn't seem to work for AMG only a couple of years earlier, but Skoda really latched onto something and it seemed to pay off for them. I have to say there's something about a small hatch diesel that I quite like, with the torque making up for any lack of power that you'd get with the base petrol versions in some ways. But I've never driven a diesel "hot hatch", so you could be right and that it's an answer to the question nobody ever asked, as the petrol equivalents have the power anyway

    Saying that, it's looking like it's a HOT car!

    I like them, they're a great car. The used the vag pd130 ASZ engine, which was bullet proof, I had a bora with it and that car could sit at 100 mph all day. KevinF bought it from me and remapped it to something like 185bhp. There are guys running them with little more than a hybrid turbo and an FMIC pushing out 220bhp and achieving intergalactic mileage, hassle free.

    IMO there is a massive market for frugal tunable hot hatches.
