Is your fabia your only car?

[AlexR]

Thought there'd be a few people with more exciting other cars, the fabia is after all reasonably sensible lol

I'm pushing 220+bhp/ton now in my french tin can, so you'd need 286+bhp in a fabia to match that, then the 500kg weight difference, to make up for that with handling, grip and braking you'd have to do quite a bit, if it's even possible? So it's not like a normal saxo lol

Like having the fabia as a runaround because it's perfect for that task, sips fuel, got a decent amount of power when needed, comfy and reliable!

apart from my fabia vrs, the missus has just bought a skoda roomster - she loves it, not slow with a 1.6 petrol engine too, though i havent ragged it (just in case your reading this dearest lol)

My fabia is not my only car.

Currently have,

1961 series 2a short wheel base landrover pickup.

1972 toyota FJ ragg top LHD 4.0 diesel

2004 skoda fabia vrs currently in bits

At the moment my daily driver is a 2005 volvo xc90 d5 se geartronic

I am also in the process of buying back my old 1989 golf mk2 16v gti

Usually the fabia is my only road car, the others just stand around doing nothing

My fabia ia my main car but I only use it at the weekend, during the week I use the polo as I'm in car parks and often dont have a choice of parking spaces so it dont matter if that gets "knocked about" abit........which it does.

My Fabia TDI PD 100 is my only car. Had a Rover 75 CDT with remap previous. Prefer my Fabia in every respect. Road Tax, Mpg and insurance alone make me smile!Would love a Vrs but wifey finds sports seats uncomfy.(we are getting on a bit)

[mdk1]

Fabia is swmbo's and our little play thing, with a few choice mods.

The Roomy is the main car for long trips.

[rainbow-walker]

Fabia vRS is my only car, do about 20K per year. SWMBO is in the process of swapping a Mini Cooper to a Mini Cooper S, so tend to use that at weekends.

Although my favourite toy is my Suzuki GSXR 1000 K7

RBW.

[ExAudiSi]

SWMBO and I have a Fabia each, a hatch and an estate, but I also have a Porsche 968 as my weekend toy (Shell V-Power unleaded is now cheaper than diesel what's that all about?).

[Imperator]

Yes, but I do have a Vespa ET4 gathering dust in the garage.

[Duggie]

Yep, the 1.4Mpi is my daily driver... Slow but tuned for handling... so much fun in the bends.

If i'm lucky i get to drive my mum's Ford Puma 1.6 on the weekends or use Dad's 2.0L D Freelander for hauling stuff around.

[vRSLen]

We only use the Fabia vRS when we have to ...

We tend to use the Octavia vRS ......

[jasc1988]

[phat28VRS]

The fab vrs is now the main car, I also have a golf VR6 i used to show which is modded to death! Ohh and the royal mail van i drive daily lol

[bumble]

i own two cars but the other is hers realy the fabia was bought 4 me i do bout 100 miles each working day and then we use hers at weekend normally but hers is constantly broke and in a garage (under warrenty) all i have 2 say is its french and its electrical/fuel problem say no more!!!! but were just getting fed up wif that so she maybe having mine as she does less miles and i get a old diesel estate to rack up the 1000s of miles on, and so we can put the dogs in easy when we wana take them somewhere.

Looked into a 205 but the prices are ridiculous, 1k for a decent 1.9 gti, you can get a cheaper saxo vts but then theres a serious image problem

tracks near me are

Knockhill

Croft

Oulton

Donnington

Quite a few

[Mr Grumpy]

HTH.

[Organist]

I also have a 2008 Octy Estate!

[furelise]

As well as our much-loved and much-enjoyed Furby VRS workhorse we have ten-year old Lotus Elise S1 as a weekend fun car.

The handling on the Elise is truly amazing (improved with the Yokohama tyres) - and it's low-speed acceleration is great too. But the Furby still always puts a grin on my face too every time I drive it (plus we can get two lots of scuba gear in the Furby - don't try that with an Elise .... )
