picked up an 05 plate black fabia vrs today.

got a few plans for it, remap, and a decent head unit to start with.

a quick rundown of my car ownership history before this, from top to bottom in historical order....

polo gti

mk3 ibiza cupra 20vt

lupo gti

lupo sport

saxo vts

mr2 turbo

another mk3 ibiza cupra 20vt

mini cooper (original type)

my very first car, a saxo.

so that's a run down of my car ownership history. i also ride motorbike and have had a ninja 636, yamaha r1, triumph tt600, and a few other bikes.

i'm 25 years old and from near watford.

card's behind the bar, what's everyone having?

I'll have a Guinness and your polo gti, and raise you a mad wife and a limpy black cat.

Welcome - Thats a fair list for somone of your age.

Go on then you've talked me into a bottle of Newcy brown and a large Jack cheers ps you could have bought mine

Welcome to Briskoda mate, from another Vrs owner, that is a fair list of cars mate.

You can't be that far from me then

I'll have a Guinness and your polo gti, and raise you a mad wife and a limpy black cat.

i still have the polo gti as well as my vrs.

the polo is just having a new gearbox fitted before i sell it.

Welcome fellow Briskodian!! i'll have a Guinness extra cold please

Nice list of cars

The only cars i have owned are

An Astra (95 model) 1.4

Briskodian sounds like something from Conan the Barbarian doesn't it?

Picture the scene -

I am Conan the barbarian who are you!

I am the Briskodian!

i have vagcom + laptop + cable, so if anyone local ever needs use of it then just shout.

Oh no....

Great car, best colour and I'm a Watford boy myself. Moved to Hemel cos my wallet isn't big enough for Watford prices at the mo.

at the moment the only plans are remap, and a nice headunit with direct ipod control to go with my new 3rd gen ipod nano.

I have a Fabia Vrs and am seriously considering trading it in for a Lupo GTI, need some cach for a wedding next year!!

I have just changed jobs so diesel economy is no longer important.

Guess what im really after is a comparison between the two cars from a day to day driving experience

Thanks

Matt
