Skoda has just released the hottest Fabia ever which will be available for lease and contract hire in both hatchback and estate versions. The Skoda Fabia vRS features the same 1.4 engine as the Seat Ibiza Cupra and the upcoming Volkswagen Polo GTi. The Skoda Fabia vRS produces 180bhp and will achieve 0-62 in a time of 7.3 seconds and a top speed of 139mph making it the fastest Fabia to date. The vRS shares the same seven speed DSG gearbox and XDS system as you would find in some of the Volkswagen range. The Skoda Fabia vRS features LED daytime running lights, vRS body kit and 17” alloy wheels. The Fabia vRS also features new Rally green paint inspired by the Fabia S2000 rally car. Inside the new vRS the upgrades continue with such things as a multi function steering wheel with gearshift paddles, iPod connection and branded sports seats. The previous Skoda Fabia vRS was well known for its cheap running costs and the new Fabia is no different with a combined fuel economy of 45.6mpg and with CO2 emissions as low as 148g/km trips to the petrol station won’t be to often and road tax costing just £125 a year. Prices start at £15.700 for the Skoda Fabia vRS hatchback and £16,495 for the Skoda Fabia vRS estate, both will be available on lease and contract hire through www.leasecarsdirect.co.uk from the 29^th of July this year.
