hi all, just a quick note. picked up new black fabia last week. had 03 oktavia vrs 180bhp, but after test drive of fabia was amazed, so after workihg out running costs decieded to swop. also will modify when more miles on clock.190bhp should do or am i being greedy. any tips would be welcome.

Hello Jonno, hello Jonno's Fabia

Yes, you're probably being greedy :P but that doesn't mean that it's without the reach of some of the tuners Have a read around.

Good luck

Welcome Jonno.

Welcome :wave:

Welcome to Briskoda Jono.

I can think of several audi / mini / scoob to skoda fabia vrs converts, but I reckon you're the first octy rs to fabby rs convert who's been brave enough to raise his voice and let it be known :P

... you're the first octy rs to fabby rs convert who's been brave enough to raise his voice ...

You make it sound as though that's something to be ashamed about, Xavier? :confused: :P

LOL Simon. Us fabia owners have a different perspective on things :P

just looking through some other forums, and noticed some peoples previous cars. how about this then: p reg scooby 1998-99, dads h reg favorit 99-01, r reg escort[shared with dad], shared 1.4 fabia 01-03, 03 vrs octy[8 months old] and finaly my new furby vrs. [getting to know all the jargon already]. wish my daughter were here, cause she can type miles faster than me, so come the weekend i'll dictate she can type. oh i forgot, my first car was a brand new 1986 c-reg rapid coupe. had it for 8 years never let me down. wish the vrs cost the same (

My first new car was a Fiat 600. That came between a Morris 1100 :( and a Lotus Elan S2.

going from a fiat 600 to a lotus- bet that was interesting. brown trouser stuff i'd say.

The Fiat was limited by Malta's top speed of 40mph; and I had the Lotus before the 70mph national limit.

Back in your days of Shackleton Mk3s and incorrectly triggered photoflashes, per chance?

hi rob, was the shackleton a plane, with those funny propeller things my great great grandad told me about, when i was in short trousers.

Back in your days of Shackleton Mk3s and incorrectly triggered photoflashes' date=' per chance?

Rob.[/quote']Not quite, Rob. I had a 1300 Beetle after the Elan and then a VW411 back in Malta when that 'incident' happened.

Do I sense a 'what cars have you owned' thread in the offing for members who have joined since our last one?

Welcome..

190bhp should be acheivable with a remap, exhaust and air filter
