Skoda Fabia vRS to be dropped due to poor sales. Is that a good idea?

It’s the Skoda version of the VW Polo GTI and comes with the same 1.4 litre TSI supercharged with a healthy 178bhp, 7-speed DSG gearbox and performance and economy that satisfies – 0-62mph in 7.1 seconds and 44mpg.

Fiat ElleZero Spied – heading to Geneva 2012

While being environmentally friendly is nice, there comes a time when you just have to be mean -- eco-mean, in this case.
