The car that has sparked this out-pouring of @Lofty's stored knowledge would be a nice little car cleaned up. It is just dirt that's on the seats. A fair bit of manky, greasey dirt.

 

I motion to have this thread stickied as a "Mk 1 Fabia editions" thread.

 

Keep them coming guys!

Strange theres not been a stickied one before!

I'll admit, it's grown on me a little. I'd very much like to have one with the red interior actually!

There's a need for one with all the different editions listed, like a big catalogue type thing. I support this!

Seriously?

 

Tedious marketing guff for kids with non-toxic, edible colouring-in pencils who need careful supervision lest they injure themselves or each other.

Doubt the red wears very well. Ages ago I went to view a red monte with red seats. Nice car but the seats looked pretty grungy even though the rest of the car was lovely. The grey seats in my monte still look perfect aside from some light scuffing to the drivers side bolster, and it currently having a lot more miles than the one I viewed. Plenty of not so careful passengers spilling everything from pesto to milk on the seats too and they still come up a treat!

Anything is more hard wearing than the original Fabia vRS colour trim. Imagine something made from Moths, that would stand up better than the OE Fabia upholstery.

That gold/beige coloured dust would never come out of your clothes though.

Minor bump to this thread since I found one with a red interior and.... I don't like it at all.

Wow, who would've guessed that red would fade in the sun, this is why gaily coloured interiors are such a bad idea, apart from the questionable taste of course. Imagine how bad it would be somewhere sunny by now.

Isn't that orange? (at least on one side)

I reckon it has faded where one side has seen a lot of the sun.

Yeah that's the puppy, the door cards and seats in the red were a bold choice, especially back in the mid 2000's.
