quote: I wouldnt have a problem with that since all skoda engines are made by VW. Dave is right. Plus GM have a share in Fiat. Thats why the vectra has the 1.9 diesel from fiats and alfas in the veccy too. Also why the 2.0 turbo veccy is a saab engine And in japan the zafira is sold as a Subaru. :thumbs: | |
