ScottHmk4 Fabia vRS - Now with SeatSurgeon leather
Well the ibiza's been gone for 3 weeks now, manage to pick up a 2005 mk1 Fabia vRS, roughly 65800 miles. Pretty standard, it has standard alloys done black (which i cant decide if i like or not) and the fabia is debadged from the back.
Dont have any pics yet but there will be soon. Nothing is going to be happening for a while as i have to get money back and get saving. so tomorrow im planning to give it a good old blitz/detail (weather pending) and get some flyeyes kit on the rear lights. Plans of the future Alloys Lower Light tints (inc sunstrip) Clean and tidy engine bay (may paint engine cover) Xenons LED bulbs for number plates Dubmeister pressed plates Thats the general gist of it. Not going to be spending loads on it like the ibiza. Just get it tidy (I say that just now anyways) |

Good luck with this mate. Subtle mods with the fabia look the best IMO. Should be looking awesome soon. What's the insurance like on this?

very pleased with it, overall drives perfectly, pulls like a train and is very fuel friendly. like i said earlier, has a better build quality then the ibiza imo. few little things i have clocked now that ive had it a few days.....back bumper could use a respray (not urgent), hazard relay needs replaced as the indicators arnt making the ticking noise, the fan resistor needs replaced as it only works on setting 4 and the buzzer wont make a noise when i leave the lights on and open the door.. all easy enough to fix i beleve and cheapish for parts, not sure on the light buzzer though? other than that everything seems to be hunky dory. if anyone has input for these faults please feel free to tell me. my cheap vagcom cable broke so i cant enable or disable any adaptions yet. or scan it for more possible faults for that matter.
still not convinced on those black alloys, and definetely need skoda centre caps. |

the wheels look nice IMO esp if you lamin-x the rear lights and had tints but then that is the look of my car not for everyone!

on the cards first off when i get money again will be some light tints all round, colour code all plastics (number plate holder, handles and bumpstrips), got an audi S3 sharkfin aerial coming (only if the reception works will it stay on probably, might get the alloys swapped or done silver till i can afford a set of something. decent headunit. i know it needs lowered but aint wanna tamper with the suspension yet as it is real smooth just now. othe things will be pressed plates and led lights, xenons etc. sounds alot but its just those suble mods that make it better.
