That Chek Republic auto maker has a good reputation for quality. Nice
looking car. Is it a clone an Audi or is it a body style of it's own?

Hi Victor
The Skoda RS was about 7,000 UK pounds ($10,000 +?) cheaper than the Audi
sedan with the same motor - it shares the same platform as the Audi TT/VW
Golf/Seat Leon, and when you put it on the ramp, like Chris says, every part
is badged Audi/VW/Seat/Skoda. The first (10,000 mile) service was just 40 UK
pounds. It has 180 bhp as standard and is the bargain of the year over here.
I guess that's why the police have gone for them. The RS already has a
following and the owner's club is having its first meeting at Silverstone
race track in June - should be fun!
