Skoda, a Czech car manufacturing company, is upbeat about what it describes as the 'successful launch' of Fabia - a small segment premium hatchback car that was introduced in India Jan 9.

The company hosted a party here Wednesday at Ricks in Taj Mansingh Hotel, with a greatest attraction of 23 Australian beauties - who have been walking the ramp at Skoda stall in Auto Expo 2008 wooing the audiences.

Among those who attended the party 'You are Special' was Thomas Kuehl, a member of the board of directors of the sales and marketing department of SkodaIndia.

Kuehl said: 'The overwhelming enthusiastic response to the new Fabia worldwide continues to reaffirm the place our products have in our customer's hearts.'

Rahul Kumar, a student who attended the Auto Expo, said: 'The concept of having Australian girls model along with the car was a sure shot winner. They definitely drew a large audience at the Skoda stall.'

SkodaIndia, which launched the Fabia a day ahead of the Auto Expo 2008, Jan 9, went a step ahead of other companies by bringing down the Australian beauties to add an international look to their stall.
