Has chump says but they do have the option for xenons as I had them on mine, and the interior is in fact silver... Full tank is about 45ltr about £35-£40.
And Vibs when I say hot hatch I ment warm hatches such has the mini cooper and citreon c2-c3 vts etc, etc not the likes of civic type-r and clio 182's.
I have dabbles with the likes of Golf gti's and come off best though.

Standard 130BHP, £500 later 150BHP remap, £1000 later £170 remap. I was looking at them and went out in a dealer demo car which was running 170bhp, had the remap done at Awsome Gti. It was really quick and the torque was amazing, brakes can handle the increased power and the good thing is the remap doesn't invalidate the warranty.

Believe me if the car goes wrong and the dealer finds out it has a remap they will invalidate the warranty. I asked this Q before I bought my Fabia Vrs and they adviced against it cos Skoda UK do not like re-mapped cars due to added pressure on the gearbox and clutch....the engines are usually fine.

AMD remap will take the Fabia Vrs 130pd to 195bhp and 300lb ft torque

Ross Clarke (techie) over on astra-sport had one. He worked at AMD so they used his car to develop the tuning potential.

I think they're ugly as sin, especially the front, side and rear profiles
