Finally - the wait is over....

 

picked up at 8.30 this morning.

 

 

 

 

just need to get a day of decent weather so I can clean it now.

 

1.2 Colour Edition

Sunset Glass

Heated Seats

Boot Liner

Carpet Mats

 

 

Congratulation!

 

Now take the dog out for a run in it, he/she wants to go for a drive?

 

Edit:- I'm surprised that your dealer is still using "EU" plates, I thought that crazy had died out and especially now as BREXIT is almost upon us?

Still a couple of years to go before we exit EU, so owner may get some use out of them. Even after exit there may well be a transition period before they have to be changed....if they do, indeed, need to be changed. One of thousands of details to be sorted. Will keep the civil service in overtime for ages.

Do we still have to display GB stickers on our cars when we drive them abroad?

 

Lovely car by the way. You'll find the Fabia a joy to own and drive,I do.

Oh yes we do if they are not on the reg plate, Jonny Foreigner does not need to bother when he comes here though - it seems!

 

Edit:- I think that it is essential for that it makes the French police's job easier as they tend to favour handing out tickets to us whimps it has been said.

Looks lovely........oh how i wish we could keep our cars so clean and shiny BUT we live 1/2 mile up a farm track covered in mud and the main road isn't much sodding better.

We got the Yeti for the mud and looked ok mud splattered but our new Focus st and fabia mk3 show every bit of much grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr  drives me mad lol

God help us if the Wee Jimmy Krankie lookalike gets her way!

Going off topic i am sorry 

 

But i hope that if they vote to go then that's it done deal NO money not a penny from England up to Scotland 

 

Sorry op 

Lovely looking car black and white seems to suit this shape fabia 

Just spotted a beautiful white dog in the house window   what sort is it?  we have a Cavalier King Charles Spaniel who has similar big lugholes sorry off topic but I love dogs.

I`m not a big fan of white cars but your Fabia looks great..... the Black bits really make it stand out

If you're thinking of cleaning your headlights.. don't!!! ..and read your manual - see the cleaning/aftercare section.. avoid scrubbing them with anything!!!

He is a Bichon Frise cross Jack Russel...

 

And have recently found out the he has hip dysplasia so that will be a bill for £10000 to have a double hip replacement ☹️

 

I must say that the car has been easier to keep clean than my previous black A3 ....

Blimey that`s expensive but hopefully your insured? our Hamish had his left knee replaced at a place near Newcastle (bit like supervet`s place) and that was around £4000 fortunately we always have good insurance BUT his right one is playing up now and after the last one the insurer refused to cover anymore joint issues but if he needs sorting then we will have to do so.

My wife was looking at your photo and she guessed Bichon Frise.

Aye black cars and mud are terrible, my Goldwing was black until it arrived here and now its sh**y brown lol

It's about £5000 per hip ...  insurance will only cover £2000 per hip....   so a very expensive mutt...

 

 

i must must live in a dust bowl..  every time I cleaned the A3 within an hour I could see a coating of dust...  can't see it as much on white lol.....
