Andy2407's Yellow Fabia vRS

Featured Replies

I've just been putting my data sheet together for the Gaydon meet, so I guess its about time I got my car in this section as well - having owned it almost a year!

I've previously owned a Mk I Octy 1.8T vRS estate, a Felicia 1.3 LXi Plus and an Mk II Octy 2.0 TDI Elegance, and I've been on here for a few years now.

When I got the Fabia, I had a good idea of what I wanted to do to it. I think I've now done most of the common modifications - although with an annual mileage of around 25k, I've not gone for anything too extreme.

Special thanks to many Briskodians for their advice and ideas, but particularly to Wardy and Skudmissile for being my Fabia gurus :thumbup:

Will the Fabia interior fit in an Octavia Jon? Will Andy not mind? :D

The car looks well Andy, as ever :)

Ah yes, the understanding and consideration of a detailer's other half can never be underestimated :D

At least it keeps us quiet and out of your hair eh?! :thumbup:

Kept him out of my hair while I painted 16 fence panels and 2 sheds, jet washed and painted the decking and jetwashed the flags in the back garden yeah...

Dammit, I deserve a prize too! :orb_rocki

I hope he bought the right colour this time ;)

If you post up some before and after garden photos, in the appropriate section, then we're more than happy to issue virtual pats on the back once we've inspected the quality of work :D
