Where r all you Furby vRS's?

Featured Replies

I still haven't seen one on the road. Are there any in Northants (apart from Ross Clarke tho' I've not seen that about yet) Does anyone know how many are sold? I'm not suggesting they all turn up outside my house or anything but seems wierd that I haven't seen any. Seen loads of Octy vRS's. Probably I need to get out more.

Yeah tend to agree. Very rare where I live and I think I've only seen a couple on the road since about March, although I've noticed if I venture into some towns such as Basingstoke or Oxford there are loads of them. :D Oh, or turn up to a Briskoda meet ;)

shame you didn't see me last week as I had a loan Fabia vRS whilst my grill was getting sprayed. I saw one last week, but he didn't want to play :(

There is a red Fabia vRS I see some nights on the A43 on the way home, havent said hello as yet, dont think he's a Briskodian.

In in and around Northampton normally, not far from Northampton College on Booth lane.

since i've started looking - last three months or so. i've seen ONE furby vrs, and about 3 octavia vrs's

this one furby was out by ely..not even near where i live!

I've seen only three in the last couple of months , a red one was visiting my next door neighbour ! It gave me a good chance to talk to the owner and swap experiences.

How many do you think there are in the UK ? 1600 ?

all I seem to see is Felica drivers, who have a habbit of pulling out in front of me and then driving seriously slow! are all Felica drivers over a 100?

no furby vrs's?

they're all in manchester then! ;)

They are hiding from me and the other TDI's that have been adapted........ TOO scared to get upstaged by their daddies.....

WHOS THE DADDIE?????????

We all know the feeling about getting our butt kicked by the old man right?????

ive only ever seen about five fab vrs' in the four months or so that i've had mine and i'm fairly sure a couple of the spottings were the same cars.

saw a silver vrs in st neots last week and a black one parked on the ring road in huntingdon.

still very rare compared to other makes/models, which isn't a bad thing!

I've only seen one Fabia vRS since mid June which was when I ordered mine and the one I saw was only last week ! The 1st one I saw was my own when it was delivered ;)

I'ts nice to have a car that isnt everywhere like a Focus or a Golf. :P

Well I live and drive around Wirral all day, but must say I haven't seen 5 Fabia Vrs's in the last 6 months!

Who or what is Smudgers? :confused:

P'raps 'she' IS a girl! :rolleyes:

Smudgers is my boyfriend. I have one, women not far from his has one. Seen one in Greasby, New Brighton and a Black on in Eastham. All others silver. I was on the M6 J37 when passed one as well.

Meant the women who lives not far from Smudger drives like a girl. Turbos are their for a reason!

The one in Greasby may have been Spinndrift or me, the one in Eastham may have been me, and the one in New brighton may have been me too! :D

I do the full tour in the course of my job.

Hope the woman by smudgers wasn't mistaken for me. :eek:

What colour you got then Vikki? Not yellow by any chance is it? That was the last one I saw, in Asda cp couple of weeks ago..Bromborough.

There'll be another one lurking around (Corrida Red) from tomorrow hopefully... fingers crossed I get it then and it doesn't take any longer, then it's 'bye bye' Focus! My no. plate is L14M **... :thumbup:

I keep seeing a yellow one go 'round the roundabout into the Birkenhead tunnel from Liverpool a number of evenings each week about 5.40ish as I go across the roundabout towards the Wallasey tunnel entrance... 54 plate, lady driver. Who is it? :confused:

Think we've sussed that one out now Liam!

See you 'round ace!

There's also a silver one with a middle-aged man who drives past my house quite frequently, usually when I'm cleaning the car! I think it's a 54 plate, but it could be 04. I live in Moreton, don't really wanna say which road for obvious reasons but it has a fly-over at one end and a castle at the other... ;)

Just trying to work out who's who! :rolleyes::o

Having driven nearly 600 miles over the past week, I was confident that I would spot a Furby vrs but no. Saw 2 Octy vrs's in Salisbury though - didn't return my wave so couldn't be Briskoda people. But, home again I popped down to local Tesco to get petrol and saw a red furby vrs on the forecourt next to my Octy. Also an Octy estate behind me. I decided to speak to the Furby owner and ask him what he thought to the car. He was probably in his late 50's which is fine by me, and when I asked him what he thought to the car he said he'd had Skodas for 17 years but that this one was a bit quicker than he had expected -'It goes like s***t' he said. The interior caught my eye as it seemed to be red and black and on closer inspection I saw they were red stretchy covers - aagh! :pants: But he said the light grey was a bugger to keep clean and that's why he had covered them up. Wish I could have spent longer chatting to him as he was a nice bloke and I could have told him about Briskoda but by then people were getting a bit impatient!

There doesn't seem to be too many about my way one either (that'll be East Yorkshire then). See one at work from time to time and a couple Hull way on but thats about it.

Now aren't all you Vrs owners glad that you own such a rare vehicle, especially when you compare it to a common car, such as a Mini Cooper ;)
