Sc0ott, you're an idiot, stop trying so hard. This was supposed to be a genuine, interesting thread, not an opportunity for all the clowns on here to prove how unfunny they are.

Hence vRS and not RS


Incorrect.

Skoda used RS first but decided to let Ford away with it and used vRS.

I can't find the article now and after 3 minutes of looking I've given up.

Sure Ford tried to take them to court and lost. Ford aren't the only manufacturer who use RS.
