To be honest, I think the monte carlo looks very much like a mini. The vrs fabia not so much.

And the thing I love about my Fabia (even thought I haven't got it yet) is the fact it does 0-60 9 seconds faster than my current 1.4 comfort fabia, and the fact it has fully auto mode(due to a disability I can't drive a manual)

Yay!

I want it now!

I'm yet to have anyone ask if it is a mini yet :p

I've had 3 or 4 people say to me "looks just like a mini!"

Even tho i havent got mine yet the things i liked most about it from my long test drive are

DSG - the way when you boot it its always in the power and just how much more relaxing it is when in traffic,

exhaust/engine note,

price,

colour (rallye green)

Next people will be saying 'just like a golf'

Anyway, to get back on thread, another thing i like is that on the swing radio you can get LW, so will be able to get the cricket in the summer.

when i was at the dealer showing my mum what car i had ordered, which unfortunately 0 vRS' were there when i went back, we looked around some other skodas, my dad mentioned the companies in the VW group, I just had to show her the sound 1 of the doors makes and said "Sounds just like a Golf" .. it made my dad and the nearby salesman chuckle a little

I like the fact that i was told i had 8-15 weeks wait, and the system shows delivery on the 8th week

hopefully I will love the look i may be getting from the staff at the local tesco petrol station.. when ever i filled my brothers 08 clio sport up i always got looks like "how the hell does he afford that?".. it made me feel good, even though it wasnt my car

the fact its afforldable, including the insurance for a 20 year old.. well, its 1420 for 10 months with 2yrs no claims, but to me thats affordable, just about =D

the DSG, as i have a dodgy left knee and driving manual for more than 20 mins causes massive pain =/

the looks, i think it stands out quite a bit with the shape, all these newer cars look very similar to eachother, but the fabia looks way different to anything else coming to our roads.

the fact my 2nd car, my 1st brand new car, is a skoda =D, my other bro had an octy and my dad had a superb, i loved them both, now its my turn with the vRS

More young(ish) ones joining the Fabia VRS brigade Good effort.

I've only had mine 2 days and have had 2 people tell me it looks like a mini!! :S

Things I love, well again I've only done about 40 miles but:

• Straight line speed
  
• DSG gearbox
  
• Value for Money
  
• Fantastic seats
  
• Cracking brakes
  

I think that's for starters. Some of those are from the test drive...

Oh and the grin on my face when I see it, get in or out of it, or drive it!!!!
