The Fabia vRS Review and Photo thread

[grapo]

What's the point though? We can all get countryside pics if we want. This is a Skoda vrs photo thread.

Very true and its quiet just now. Not much going on around this thread, So sorry Bud.

Are you a 'Road Captain' as well?

 

EDIT<

All gone sorry for wasting anyones time.

You're an odd ball mate. Will leave you to post pictures of animals, windmills and pint glasses in the vrs thread. As you were.

Latest review on a 3 year old vRS.

Nothing rusting other than the discs, even when regularly at the Seaside.

Driving and handling very well on hot days and hot roads.

 

Using no oil,

& giving good economy when driven economically, and great fun on roads where there are few potholes.

Windscreen tint is fine, but windscreen its self is very prone to stone chips.

New screen no.4 coming very soon i would think.

 

Not so keen on the pretty pathetic A/C when you do want it properly 'Cold/low',

and IMO its a shame that the car does not have a Temperature Gauge for inside Temps.

It does have a choice of 2 displays of outside temps tho.

(Best never to drink and drive, even if it is tempting to just have one on these lovely summers days.)

I can confirm the climate control option is awsome... cold almost instantly, and easily copes with 32C outside just set to 18C and put on "auto"

[sharkrider]

because its the "review" and photo thread I wont start anothe oil thread

 

new CTHE is now 4k old, and seeing as I did 1k last weekend I checked the oil... we are now at 3/4 full.... I may have to top up before the 10k mark... not too stressed about it, as I havent topped up yet , and my old car used 1 litre in the first 10k before it stopped consuming anything.....

Possibly one of the quickest Groom Wedding cars? 

As I was at a wedding last weekend, and realised I was taking the best man & groom so decided to decorate the car:

My blue vrs, day of collection, arty effect added, incorrect reg plate on (though this did give me an excuse to drive back to the dealer in it)

Very nice looking rs I do like the front spoiler works well with the race blue

[Confide]

I used to have the frontspoiler, but thought the car was cleaner without it .

If everything is going as it should for me tho, it will look different in the coming weeks !

EDIT : it fits the car but I think the car needs some more muscle for the looks so to say!

I love how the front splitter gives it a wider look, and its getting lowered 50mm today so hopefully look even better! Just got the rear diffuser to paint, roof vinyl and more power!

What ever happened to plastidip'ing your door handles Confide?

Some more pictures here if anyone wants a look http://instagram.com/dextervrs

If you check some posts further up on the same page you'll notice a black and white Fabia...

That's what happened :P!

[Dexter619]

Wow! That is certainly different :P I dread to think how much has been spent on that car!

And it's not over yet .

Haha probably the best idea!

Can't wait to see some "changes" then!

I've done some changes today, attached the Whiteline 20mm RARB finally, got some Weitec Hicon GT coilovers to go on next weekend!

was it hard to fit? I have an H&R anti roll bar comming, intend to do it myself, doesn't have drop links like the whiteline, goes direct onto the bottom shock bolt....

Really easy to be honest, I had to get the rear wheels on the edge of my garage floor to which there is a few inches drop so i had the maximum space to crawl under the car, took me about 20-25 minutes
