Shame on them, but think of the amount you would save on fuel

i think i would half my fuel bills but there is no way im letting my car go for £3300

Could always sell your car privately and go to them as a cash buyer?

Chris

im going to try that glasses quot private sale at £5500 that seems a fair price .

looked at another furby today 2004 £8995 37000 miles offered me £4000 for mine bit more like it if he goes another couple of hundred we may have another furby vrs owner on the site,.

Keep trying to get a better price mate, would be good to have another Vrs owner in the scotland area.

There are loads of us Fabia vRS drivers in Scotland (particularly Tayside) they just dont seem to know about Brisky or they dont post.

It is always good to have another one though. It is one less BMW driver!

I have seen a few Vrs' in ediburgh but don't think they are Briskoda folks, I flashed my lights at one the other night and waved when I pulled up alongside him to have a look at his one, just blanked me.

David

Haha! Probably thought you wanted to go dogging somewhere.

Brucey1 - good luck on your quest to find the perfect vRS - I'd want to pay a little less for an 04 with 37000 on it though.

lol, I remember when I test drove the Vrs, some guy in a octy vrs waved at me as we were coming along the bypass in edinburgh to say well done, your going to buy it,

i think £8995 is a bit rich,had a look at the sevice history its not been stamped since 10,000 miles.salesman said it had been done as the privious owner was a mechanic at a skoda dealer.sounds like a crock of **** to me!

I think if I was a mechanic at a Skoda dealer, the first thing I would do is sod the service and borrow the rubber stamp, before I sold it on

Or borrow the stamp each time I did my exceptional service to my own vehicle

Try for a reduction in the price of the Skoda as opposed to an increase in the trade in of yours

Test drove a Fabia VRS today, you know now you will buy one

Hi all, First Post on these forums.

I test drove a Fabia VRS today, thought the price was steep, 36000 miles, red 9495, 54 plate, but now Ive driven one i want one but not at that price. In my opinion looking on trader and other Skoda dealers I say it was about £1000 overpriced, what do you guys think. Sorry if this is thread Hijack

I'll have that mate - 9495 is expensive. I bought my 54 plate black vRS about 3 months ago now and paid 8995. The car has cruise, heated seats and xenons as optional extras, 32000 miles and the price included GAP, tax and a full tank. So yeah - I'd be looking for the dealer to knock about a grand off, maybe a bit more.

Have you had a look here mate Buy a used SKODA FABIA - Auto Trader UK

i wouldnt let glasses guide rule your expectations of a px price. they are at least 3 months behind REAL trade prices. for the best idea of how much to expect, look about on forecourts and find something similar to your car. then take about 1500 quid off and thats about what to expect for a tidy, better than average car. depending on how you negoiate you can either get your px bumped up or the price of the car your trying to buy brought down. HTH

ive spotted another fabia 04 plate for £7995 only trouble is it has 59k miles .anyone got any high mileage furbies on here.

the prices of these things are unreal,i purchased my 04 brand new for 10750,they are having a laugh,try looking in the trader for one with waranty and blow these dealers off they are just being greedy imho:D

i hope im not boring everybody,test drove another one today.high milage 60000 miles,phoned first to make sure it had fsh yes sir definetely has .went down to take a look engine coolant light was on as was service light.drove car it actualy drove alright.checked service history back at garage hadnt been stamped since 32k his excuse for this was skoda have variable serviceing intervals!then he offered me 3 grand for my car as it would need a respray,told him to stick it

don't get hung up on milage 60k is barely run in,do insist on fsh,and the fabia vrs never came on variable service to my knowledge, so he is talking ******,just to re iterate your car MUST have fsh,if not walk away.
