Skoda Fabia vRS SE 1.9 TDi

[Cvrtis]

Hello everyone, I have just put a deposit down on my first skoda, a Special edition fabia VRS. It's completely standard apart from having wind deflectors and gun metal grey alloys. It has 60k on the clock with a full service history and has been very well looked after. I have some plans already such as colour coding the front grille surround and coilovers but i'm deciding to go for more subtle mods with some engine and handling tweaks. Here are the pictures from the advert;

I'll try get some more pictures up this weekend when i've given it a wash. Any tips and advice welcome thanks

So it got delivered saturday, couple pictures after a quick wash before it rained. I plan on removing the wind deflectors as i think they make it look cheap, going to lower and colour code the chrome grille, also looking out for some BBS RW's or Porsche twists then eventually decat it, fit a RARB and remap it.

But I like the wind deflectors :( :p What about some nice fresh number plates without the border around them, clean and crisp? Colour coded grill surround or entire grill btw? I am a big fan of the grill surround being colour coded   I wonder what the doors would look like without the black strips? 

 

I WANT A FRIGGIN SE! One slipped me by recently when owner changed mind about selling it (second best decision he ever made after buying it in first place) :(

 

ps. nice

Yeah clean plates are on the cards, may potentially derub strip but not sure atm, and i was originally looking for a black one but this came up and it was too good to turn down. Still not sure about the deflectors...

Looks a very nice car! Personally I would take the bump strips off, thats what I did

I'd probably do it if the doors were smooth and didn't have the ridge

You know it, just heard about the later engines having potentially 150BHP, need to get it on a RR at some point[emoji106]

I wouldn't even bother if you're happy with how it drives.

 

It's just pub talk

Finally sold my corsa so I have some extra cash to spend on the fabia, anyone recommend the first mods? Im thinking of getting AP coilovers as it sits stupidly high standard, I think it already has bigger brakes fitted as they are grooved and alot bigger than the back ones can anyone confirm this for me? Thanks

OUCH!!! Get in contact with the council and get them to pay for the repair from their insurance.. wont affect yours and you can get it sorted properly. swap out the badges while your there. 

 

good luck mate! 

 

I wish I had an SE... love the colour!
