New Fabia vRS

Jimb0 · 28-10-2005, 13:55

Just ordered my New Fabia vRS in Black Magic.

I know this is nothing exciting for you guys being owners of skodas already.

But im 18 and still in collage. Upgrading from my 1991 Astra in Solarfade red. I am absolutly over the moon, got a great deal too.. Through my aunty who works for Black Horse, got a brand new furby vRS, metallic paint for £11,500. and a 5% APR on finance. Insurance only £858. Bargin.

I Am so happy

Just got to wait for it to arrive. ARGHH!

Mort · 28-10-2005, 13:59

Good choice. Was 23 when I got mine; replacing a 1.2 Punto. It's a great car that you'll probably keep for a long time. Hope you enjoy it!

Good insurance quote too!

You'll be our youngest vRS owner on here! Oh well Walkie you weren't going to be the youngest forever....

Yeah, but how old are you now?

Harry_vRS · 28-10-2005, 14:04

Jimb0 · 28-10-2005, 14:15

lol ill be the 2nd youngest.. but its not a compertition is it

Harrystainer how did you get insurance on ur furby with a dragon tuning box on it?

i struggled to get insurance let alone if it was modded.

Harry_vRS · 28-10-2005, 14:19

I'm a named driver in my mums name give admiral a go. Its not cheap tho

Fabia 12v · 28-10-2005, 14:23

if i can find a used one buy jan then i'll be youngest, but iv got to decide whether i want vRS or a very old defender to work on

.. currently still 17

Jimb0 · 28-10-2005, 14:24

I dont think ill need to chip the fubry yet, 130bhp is enough for me going from 54bhp. Also is it wise to chip a car thats will have done less than 50miles?

nice seats tho

where did u get those babys from?

I don't think there's any problems with chipping the car that early on, although you will be invalidating the warranty. If you want to let the engine bed in, then give it til 10k miles or so before doing it

Seats were available from a seat retrimmer in York, I believe ... check out the Group Buys section - around £750 all in IIRC....

Jimb0 · 28-10-2005, 14:33

thats not a bad price.. but it would cost me like £400 in petrol to get up there..

oh wait.. i wont be driving my old car which does 20mpg

god i cant wait for the time to come where is doens't cost me £40 to do 250miles.

Stevoraith · 28-10-2005, 14:47

Sounds like a cracking deal you got there mate!

You will really enjoy it- I like driving the wifes one after I've been in my 4 year old Golf which is slightly faster, so you should love it after a 14 year old Astra!

Harry_vRS · 28-10-2005, 15:06

Its nearer £785. Stu has had his done today I believe, same design as mine.

Mil · 28-10-2005, 15:46

how old is walkie now?

ChrisRs · 28-10-2005, 16:49

What 'Collage' do you go to? Art College ??

Good luck with car.

walkie · 28-10-2005, 17:02

Ah I haven't been the youngest for a while!!

I am an old man now - 20

Life has passed me by

Jimb0 · 28-10-2005, 17:17

anyone have any idea how long im goigng to have to wait for the new car?

Ive not been rung back yet for the delivery date, Anyone know how long its likely to be?

StuM · 28-10-2005, 17:32

Mine took two weeks from ordering to picking up (tomorrow!!) although I was quoted three. That said, I only specified colour and no other options.

Cheers
Stu

Harry_vRS · 28-10-2005, 17:40

Im the same as above. My car has none of the options and I only specified that I wanted it in black. Dealer told me 4 weeks, thats how long it was.

Jimb0 · 28-10-2005, 17:41

collage.. well its a sixthform, and im retaking the last year as my grades didn't meet what i needed.

Ive specified black, which i belive is the most common, so i doubt it will take long, the company im going through said they will contact every dealer in the Uk to see which can get one the fastest and then have it delivered to my door :x

hopfully by my birthday would be nice

November 18th. But by christmas is the goal.

usi · 28-10-2005, 20:06

i just picked up my brand new vrs today, am grinning from ear to ear absolutely love it so far - only just parked it up and want to go back out again already

mpopevrs · 28-10-2005, 20:37

Who did you go with to get it that cheap mate?

I'm almost 20, two years no claims my own insurance etc etc and with elephant it costs me £1400, that was the cheapest i could get and i thought fairly reasonable, but seeing your quote maybe not
