Noonoo Posted September 8, 2009 Report Share Posted September 8, 2009 Sorry to disappoint but I was drooling over a 59 plate waiting to go through for final check at the local dealers a couple of weeks ago and they're still high! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IDGM Posted September 11, 2009 Report Share Posted September 11, 2009 Nevermind the ride height.When I was in France last month, I read a German brochure for the Skoda Yeti (keep with me here). I can't speak German, but I thought I saw it was going to be available with a 105hp 1.2 engine.Today, I have received confirmation in the post that the engine exists. It is a turbocharged 1.2 TFSI and it is 105hp. It's going in the Audi A3 from early next year.There's hope for a Fox Sport yet! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mitchell Posted September 13, 2009 Report Share Posted September 13, 2009 the engine is so smooth there is no transition from charger to turbo at all just pull all the way. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MattyA Posted September 13, 2009 Report Share Posted September 13, 2009 the engine is so smooth there is no transition from charger to turbo at all just pull all the way.I'd love to fit the 1.4TSI in a Lupo, but Ive been chatting those bubbles for years.

nfbr Posted September 13, 2009 Report Share Posted September 13, 2009 the engine is so smooth there is no transition from charger to turbo at all just pull all the way.That's odd? The four GT-TSI 170 Golf's I've driven had an absolutely awful delivery. This was also supposedly the reason why VW stopped doing the twin charger engines in favour of the 1.4 TSI 160 (Turbo Only) models! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JB1.0e Posted September 17, 2009 Report Share Posted September 17, 2009 (edited) Are you sure that the 160PS is only turbo-charged-VW are still selling it as twincharged! Edited September 17, 2009 by JB1.0e Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LiamD Posted October 9, 2009 Report Share Posted October 9, 2009 seen a few 09> Fox's and they seem to have dropped a few feet and look a bit smarter. I still wouldn't have one though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And I'd love to see one of those in a Lupo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
