My Upgrade From My Fabia Vrs

[akz]

Well after 2 great years of owning my Fabia Vrs I thought it was time for a change. And I thought I would share with you lot would I've upgraded to.

This is my old Fabia Vrs which I spent a fair bit of money on and loved to bits! Couple of folk on here might recognise it, previously bought from a member on here.

And here's my replacement, bought off forum member who also previously owned a Fabia Vrs.

Majorly happy with it, this car ticked all the boxes for me. Loving the colour and the full Bose sound system, just having to get used to going to the petrol station more often lol.

Cheers Allan

nice! i bet shes thirsty but damn fast

enjoy.

[Robshaw]

I liked both cars - I hope that neo is happy

[Muppje]

Never seen one in white before! Very nice

What's it like on a full tank of petrol?

[akz]

Not done a proper full tank as of yet, but I'm looking at between 250-300miles.

It's pretty dam quick and quite torque at the right revs, I do miss the fuel consumption of the Fabia lol but a knew it was time for a change! I will no doubt sometime in the near future have another skoda though as there great cars!

its a 2.3 trubo. orginally a 2.0 litre bored I think

[PeteVRS]

Nice one, looks good in white. You'll be too busy having fun to notice the large fuel costs!

[MEDIX999]

Really nice looking car there, at first while the picture loaded I thought it was a new imprezza but to my amazement a drop dead sexy mazda...mmm nice

[IainsTheName]

Nice one mate, my friend has also just got one of these, cracking cars and amazing amount of kit with them as well!

They're really quick too, little bit quicker than my DC2 in a straight line :-)

enjoy!

[akz]

So far I've had about 6 people say it looks like a new impreza from the side. I think it does too!

Is your dc2 tuned mate?

[vrsadz]

nice car mate bet that shifts

Spoon N1 Exhaust, AEM induction kit, Eibach springs. Apart from that standard as it came out of factory :-)

[devonutopia]

I've been a passenger in this car doing nicely over 140mph on the German autobahns. Felt like pretty effortless speed.

[akz]

^^^^^ aye its pretty quick!

"Spoon N1 Exhaust, AEM induction kit, Eibach springs. Apart from that standard as it came out of factory :-)"

a fail to see how your dc2 would be able to keep up, espcally with alot less torque. but I'll take your word for it mate.

You clearly dont understand VTAK YOH then

Sorry for bringing up old topic lol:

"

Quite easy, standard DC2 takes around 6.2 secs 0-60 and is known to do a 1/4 mile in 14.0-15.0 secs, IE what the Mazda 3 MPS achieves :-) Wasnt till well over 100 he really started to pull away like a train, where power vs weight really showed :-)

Oh, and lmao at that pic lol - Exactly what I thought till I drove a Honda :-D

[Browny_37]

Lmao!

I like that chart!

[sausage roll]

Lmao!

I like that chart!

Yeah, me too! Must have taken BigW ages to create as it looks so professional.

Does the job though

[BigW]

Regrettably I do-not have the skill to produce such a chart, I just googled "VTAK" and after wading through hundreds of pictures of hondas on red 13" alloys I eventually found it

[Browny_37]

I've got a animated signature strip, but its worded a bit rudely. So i wont post it lol.
