    Default New Fabia Vrs..

    well guys, i liked the older fabia vrs even though i havn't had one but the new one really takes my fancy, and they can be had for £12750 brand new.

    i know its a 1.4 but 180bhp then remapped makes a nice figure for a small car, and being a Skoda it shouldnt fail either..

    whats your thoughts or opinions?

    Saw one in the flesh today and they are horrible. Very box like, on stilts (even more so than the previous) and didn't look like the "sporty version" of the range at all. I do though like the power-plant and performance/economy specs however.

    Saw one last week on way to work, sorry I thought it looked very smart tbh. Was in the same green as on the tv advert too.

    You cant get a Vrs for that price though mate. They start at £15700.

    i like the reliability factor and the insurance is very low on it compared to other models e.g golf, polo etc..

    its still abit to much just now but within a few months it may be more manageable

    I run a Skoda Superb diesel for work as i have a long commute and nothing has ever went wrong in the time ive had the car and it does 50mpg+ so i would recommend them for build quality. Looks wise i think i prefered the old Fabia but the new one is kinda growing on me, only thing that would put me off is the DSG gearbox as i just prefer manuals.
