So what's your next car plan if any? You sticking with Skoda?

 

Not sure yet James, I’ve had 10 or 11 Skoda cars now, and might have a change next time.

 

We’ll see when the time comes

I could find my initials so i went with 'Nate Dead On Arrival' just for the hell of it... And it might have a bit of resale value in the future unlike my initials

Made the most of a beautiful winter morning and gave her a good wash.

She’s gleaming now

Still need to get the Monte Carlo bits fitted, but just been to busy at work.

Possibly going stage 1 at xmas too... give her the power the chassis deserves

Wow that does look beautiful!  love that colour.........there's a guy local to me who has an Octavia same colour etc and really does stand out.

 

It must be lovely being able to drive a nice clean car, we live up a VERY muddy farm track and the main roads are covered in S*** hence reason we had the Yeti in a ****ty brown colour to blend in lol

I absolutely think these mk3's are stunning, just wish VW would have allowed a sportier version of this with a 1.6 turbo or something to compete with the Fiesta ST / Polo R etc etc!!

 

I Saw the Fabia R5's bombing through the welsh hills and forests two weeks ago and they stand out and also winning WRC2 aswell!!

 

Loving the ops car though, nice touches and v smart!!

Crying out for a VRS version... but sadly won’t happen :sadsmile:

Has there been an official VAG reason for not bringing out a vrs version?

Probably the usual “not enough demand”

But we all know it is mainly because it would take the spotlight off the Polo GTi/Seat FR

My dealership salesman told me that it was because the fact the fabia was 2k cheaper they sold more and therefore VW got buthurt and stoped skoda stealing the limelight!

Ok, was booked in for stage 1 next week, but went to view a car yesterday and struck a deal.

That means the Fabia will be going in PX next weekend.

However if any wants (or knows anyone) after a super low miles (2600 at present) unmarked totally mint Fabia then they can have it for £10k

Must be before next weekend though.

PM me if seriously interested

Thanks

will do, will probably need advice on stockests of sports exhausts/wrc rear wings/body kits and maybe suspension/remaps etc

Does anyone know of Skoda car groups that meet? ex wife had an Abarth 595 and was in some, just curious if there was Skoda meets (especially in the North/Yorkshire)
