Don't fancy swapping for a 320bhp octavia then?

1. I don't think you're serious. ;)

2. I couldn't handle big power in a FWD large car. Sorry. Now in a 4x4 Yeti I might be tempted... :D

Richard took me out in this car at the "How Fast" briakoda event. All i can say is what an amazing peice of machinary! I would bite your arm off this apart from the fact im 20 (would never be able to get insured!) and dont have 11k! Someone is going to get an absoloute steal!

Thanks again for the ride! Was amazing!

Really tempted - bought Clarkey666's Fabia 3 months ago and absolutely love it and am absolutely hooked. Your car seems even more special, I am seriously considering it.

Being much older insurance isn't an issue and not paying a lot for the current Fabia with all its mods declared.

My only issue would be the wheel wobble, is this likely to be sorted before a sale?

shame your selling up now m8

That's a bargain for anyone with £11k. I'd have it if I had the spare cash, because it's the best looking and set up Fabia vRS I've seen.

Basically, it's what I'd have if I had the money to modify a Fabia. Shame to see it go, and I hope it goes to an enthusiast who will look after it.

I love the sign in the background of the second picture Richard "Queues likely" Not likely behind that thing!

I hope it goes to someone on here who looks after it. I'm half tempted, but it wouldn't be right subjecting such a nice car to my daily 50 mile shi**y B road work commute.

It would be happy lirking in my garage :D

Would certainly stay low miles lol

I'll shout u if something happens to my octy :( ..... After ive been released after more than shouting at whoever causes the something to happen to my octy

The wheels need balancing with the spacers on, something that can be done. Just I have not got round to it yet as Jabbasport sent me the new tyres on new spiders last week.

That would remove most of it, making it much less or possibly completely. It depends how good the balancing is. To be 100 percent sure it needs rims that will fit over the brakes with no spacers, such as Pro Race 3.

This is a common issue with spacers. I'll get the rims balanced with the spacers, but the first person to turn up with a deposit obviously gets the car.

Thanks for the reply - had to stop myself running to the bank when I saw it. Having just bought Clarkey's would need to think about selling her on too !

I am giving it serious consideration though, so easy to let the heart rule the head sometimes.

Stunning car. Done properly. Real niche market though.

Good luck with the sale.

Of course I'm not serious :p

Good luck with the sale though Richard, you / Jabbasport should be proud what you've achieved.

Was talking about your car for sale at my local Skoda dealer today while my car was in for a service.

Gets people talking about it even if there no prospect of a direct sale. I hope it helps a little.

Would love to buy this as my "toy" but theres no chance of me buying it ATM :-(

Hope it sells soon Richard as it deserves to be looked after.

I am keeping it and scrapping the 4x4 Fabia project now I have my MY11 GT-R.

I am taking it off sale as I am tired of having my time wasted.

Not to mention people that come and have a look, seem to love it, want to buy it, then get lost on the way to the bank for a deposit... yet still seem to be alive and kicking a week or two later. :giggle:

Was a P-take! Why can't people just be honest and say they don't want it?!

Ah well. Shame about the 4x4 project but at the same time I bet you won't regret keeping this.

Enjoy the GT-R... I'm not jealous at all... :)
