Picked up my Fabia vRS today!

Featured Replies

Picked the vRS up today and i'm well chuffed 04 plate, 70k, black, loads of history and a real credit to its former owner. 312mm breaks, de-badged and bump strips removed.

Simpsons at Colne were first class helping me get the deal I wanted. Couldn't recommend them more.

Would write more but I wanna go out and play.

:D

Sounds good :thumbup:

Have fun, but you'll have to post some pics up ;)

ooo sounds nice! black magic...by far THE best colour :P

PICS!

Sounds like an ex-members car....

Please do post a few pictures up!

That could quite easily match the description of my first Fabia, and right sort of area of the country (I sold to a guy from Preston). Although I left the rubbing strips on. So definitely post some pics, would be good to see :)

Enjoy :drivesaf:

I have heard nothing but praise for Simpsons, which makes a change for a Skoda dealer.

Enjoy the Fabia :thumbup:

Have fun, and lets see those piccys!!!! :thumbup:

Great choice. You'll love it.

Black's the colour BTW. Don't listen to anyone else who's otherwise minded. They're prejudiced :thumbup:

Cheers lads!

Really, really impressed overall. Been for a good blat about today. Apart from the cosmetic changes and Octy breaks, I'm wondering if it may have been remapped. It flies. I'm used to bike acceleration, having had loads over the years but the fabia picks up real quick. I suppose the only way to tell would be a rolling rd or the previous owner? I put a couple of posts on here asking if it was anyones. Reg plate ends in BOJ...

There's a bit of moisture in the back, I've read all the posts on getting the sealant out, so that's on me list.

The a/c needs a regas as the cars almost 5, any of you had it done? I'm struggling to de-mist in the morning, moisture in the car doesn't help I know.

Last thing (rookie question) what's the easiest way to post pics?

Gracias

Wayne :thumbup:

Ah well, it's not mine - was YPH.

Pics: if you have a PhotoBucket account or similar, you can add the link text in between tags, or use the Insert Picture icon that'll see when writing a post.

The car flies as standard to be fair

Top Gear stated that too :lol:

Rear ARB is one of the best mods to do , so get one of those on too ;)

What sort of money are ARB's? Do you normally buy them fitted?

Would you bother upgrading the breaks on a car if you hadn't done anything to the engine?

Photobucket it is. I'll get on that too!

Thanks :thumbup:

ignore the arb bit above. i found it

well worth 200 quid?

:thumbup:

Hi

It is not a big job to fit

We charge £49.50 + VAT for fitting

Also the rear ARB we have on offer at the moment at £90 + VAT too :D

I have one on my car and love it

Should not be too long

wdf76 dont forget to order your Brisky.net sticker so we can spot you out and about - probably worth a couple horses as well ;)

Right ho Geordie, I'll get one ordered.

The car had a big black briskoda.net sticker across the rear window when I first saw it. The dealer took it off during the pdi. :thumbdwn:

Being the king of subtle small stickers front and back'll do me.

:D
