#1: CD's Fabia vRS Author: CD-B3, Location: Salisbury / New ForestPosted: Sun Sep 19, 2010 3:37 am ---- Got round to taking some pictures at last, I was so busy last week.
Note that it has done 400 miles including from Manchester to Salisbury, and it still looks pretty clean
Spec:
PD130
1.9 TDi
Ecotech Remap to 180~bhp
Whiteline Rear ARB
Mintex Pads & uprated discs all round
Koni Dampers & Eibach Springs
K&N Apollo Air-intake
Parrot Bluetooth hands free kit
Cruise control
To come:
PD150 turbo (or some other larger turbo)
FMIC
Sort out the cold air feed to make it a neater. - Done
Uprated clutch
Then another remap.
Fit the original vRS alloys. - Done (Refurb at some point)
Spray front chrome grill black.
Maybe colour code door handles.
I had to pick some people up last night after they had been out in town.
Got beeped at by my local car-park cruisers & heard someone walking by say 'That is a sexy car'
Unfortunately it was a bloke that said it
Just about the right amount of space for a FMIC?

Nope
But there is a slight scuff on the rear bumper.

That's fair enough, I like the compromise of economy & power.
Got the 205 for fun
I do a lot of miles so a petrol GTi was costing me £3.5k a year in fuel
#9: Re: CD's Fabia vRS Author: Rich196, Posted: Sun Sep 19, 2010 4:58 am ---- I like the cars, excpet the interiors, they just seem so dull looking forward to seeing the work to come on it, i like the idea of you getting rid of those wheels not sure they suit it

It don't do it for me either. IMO it's a just an uninspiring bland square shapeless family car that happens to go ok(ish)IMO

Like a golf, but not a golf?
I think it looks good CD. Sensible car that can still pack a bit of a punch.
N.B. I'm not a fan of golfs at all.

There's never much to see on diesel engines but a lump of metal with some pipes and hoses attached to it.
