What did you get for the car at auction out of interest? Its a shame I wasn’t in the market for a car at the time yours was for sale, I’ve always liked these.

I’ve just had this done our 2005 estate. Replaced the rear caliper and handbrake cable and all is good.

Make me an offer I can't refuse 😉

She's amazing, I keep contemplating on getting rid of her and getting something more practical because of the baby but I just can't do it. It's absolutely faultless.

I'll race you 😝

I'm too busy changing nappies 🙈

I flogged my VRS to buy my 'dream car' which turned out to be a nightmare, I was given the opportunity to buy back my VRS but the guy I sold it to smoked in the car which was a real shame. I'm now knocking about in Trevors 1.8T fantasy green 'comfort spec' Fabia that he built and I can't fault it. I desperately need something more practical having just had our first child but I can't bring myself to sell it - it's the best car I've ever had! I've used it for trips to Cornwall, Scotland, Isle of Skye, I've had a Tentbox on the roof of it, it's been my daily driver for almost 2 years, it's brilliant, I absolutely love the thing! People at work think I'm crackers and ask if I've got another car "so is that green thing just your work car". I'll certainly be keeping mine on the road for as long as possible!

Cheers, yes, it's Trevor's old car. I've had it just over a year now and it's been brilliant.

I did make it quite clear in the first post that I don't have a VRS (my username is probably 10+ years old back from when I did have a VRS). I do miss my old VRS but I dare say my current Fabia is better in some ways. Really I need to get rid and buy something more suitable hence me asking about towbars but I can't bring myself to sell it, it's too good and there's absolutely no faults with the car whatsoever. That's a picture of my original Fabia VRS when I bought it in 2009.

I've literally just stumbled upon that in the 'recent pics thread' I'll keep looking.

Evening all. I've spent the last half an hour or so searching the forum some advice on towbars but all I can find is info on the VRS. (Mine isn't a VRS) I'm considering fitting a towbar but I'd ideally not want to spoil the look of it so I was considering a detachable towbar but if I have to cut the bumper then is it worth just going with a swan neck. Does anybody have a picture of their towbar please so I can get an idea of how it would look.

3000 miles in and It's been absolutely brilliant. It gets loads of comments from random people too.

Earlier today somewhere in the Peak District.

There is always that. The amount of conversations I've had with random people in car parks about the colour is crazy, even an old boy probably in his late 70s was loving the colour 😂

It is.
