For sale: 06 Fabia vRS:

Skoda Fabia vRS by travelswithmyt4, on Flickr

£4,150 ONO

92,000 miles

7 months tax

1 months MOT

Genuine reason for sale: I'm off getting married/ honeymoon / travelling and as the insurance runs out with the MOT thus it needs to go (I'd leave it at home, but with my luck Sheffield would flood again and I'd lose another car!).

I've had this since 40k miles and bought it after looking at around 5, this was by far the best and was the only one I found that hadn't been tinkered with (in a bad way!). I bought it with the intention of remapping but I soon decided that it really didn't need it (in either the performance or the MPG, for me anyway).

Its used daily for commuting to Leeds by my better half and on average returns 62mpg (and extremes of 70.4mpg even during rushour traffic!). She's now using the train so the mileage probably won't change much at all.

Its been serviced at either Bickerton Skoda, Volkstek or Autohausdolby (the last two being VAG independents) since I owned it and has always had genuine parts and VW spec synthetic oil. The tyres are all Uniroyal Rainsport IIs and in good condition. The timing belt (+ water pump) have been done and aren't due until 120k miles.

The photos are available in their original size via flickr all-sizes. You can get a good look at the bodywork and see the condition including the items I highlight below (there are also more pictures available).

In the interests of being as honest as possible I'll highlight a few points about the car (please bare in mind that these are me being incredibly fussy, nothing more):

The rear drivers side alloy has some bubbling on one spoke from the recent snow/salt.

The interior being light coloured isn't perfectly light grey any-more (its far from dirty().

There are a few marks on the passenger side (plastic) sill, visible on the full size images.

It's been an absolutely brilliant car offering a good compromise in terms of fuel efficiency and performance and when I'm back I'll be looking at other Skodas straight away (I really ought to have bought Freedom earlier than today and supported this site, I will however be back!).

I'm based in Sheffield, near the magistrates court. If you'd like to know anything more or arrange a viewing then please either drop me a PM or reply to this thread.

Thanks for looking,

Paul
