 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!
