Wife forces purchase of Elegance

Featured Replies

After convincing her a VRs would be the ideal compromise for joint use, my wife refused to consider one after seeing the black and white seats!!! We have now had a 100bhp TDi Fabia Elegance for 6 months. While there's plenty of mid-range urge, and the leather accessories make a difference (and my wife loves the heated seats), it's still not a VRs and every time i see one i get green (red?) with envy:mad:. Was considering getting the engine chipped - but too many complications - insurance/warranty/handling.

Oh well!!

Good little car that, my Dad has an elegance estate.

Yes, but it will remap very nicely to 145bhp - 15 more than the standard furby vrs.

Go on, you know you want to!!

Welcome.

The elegance is a good car (I've got one as well!) and as Emily-Elizabeth said a remap will sort it out power wise. I know what you mean about the vRS though, I still get jealous when I see them out and about. When I was looking my heart said 'buy a vRS' but my head and bank balance said buy a PD100!

What's the going trade in rate for a wife against the run-out vRS? ;)

What condition is she in?

How's the bodywork?

And how many previous owners?

Chip, eibachs and Jabba rear ARB and you'll have a vRS beating stealth mobile ;) Or you could talk to Jason about "retro-fitting" :rofl:
