Had me fooled, I thought it was a WRC car.

Bonnet vents are god awful but I suppose given a bit of work to look a bit more WRC (wheels, suspension) and some livery it could pull it off (at least a bit better).

***Neo_VR*** · 17-03-2008, 19:56

Go on jason... buy it!

pixi · 17-03-2008, 20:04

It looks a bit bald.

Makefish · 17-03-2008, 20:07

Has the makings of something good but a bit 'bland' atm.

OK, I think that's enough dwelling

NO!

yashicamat · 17-03-2008, 20:19

That looks ok other than the aforementioned bonnet vents and the livery across the back.

Fabia looks nice in white.

youngsyd · 17-03-2008, 23:03

One word....SHED

jasc1988 · 17-03-2008, 23:09

i think the front bumper could of looked alright if it didnt stick out as much, like the wrc bumper, other than that its tat

Skodaboy1983 · 17-03-2008, 23:29

needs some graphics to liven it up.

skudmissile · 18-03-2008, 00:01

Heres a good question......... How does the airflow get to the sidemount intercooler

¡ ʇusǝop ʇı :ɹǝsʍuɐ

Organist · 18-03-2008, 18:11

.........needs lowering (into a skip)

Surely the rear door handles are a bit awkward to use??
How is the door done like that? Is it a whole new door or door skin, or is it a lovely bit of GRP or something just stuck on with liquid nails?

vindaloo · 18-03-2008, 20:21

Bit of a Jimmy Hill chin, I think....

It was only after the door handle comment, I realised the back end IS flaired out.

The The · 18-03-2008, 21:25

God I wish I was 10 years old again.

**tfboy** · 18-03-2008, 21:29

I actually quite like the front bumper

Agree that the bonnet scoops aren't all that great though. Still can't quite figure out the rear door handles, and not too keen on the rear bumper

KTP · 18-03-2008, 21:50

just going by the picture posted, i havent clicked the link.
it looks utter ****e!

i would love a WRC replica fabia dont get me wrong, but that looks nothing like the WRC model and its not just the lack of graphics.

poor poor attempt, people like that make me angry.

** i know what the issue is, it's just not wide enough.

mattbeef · 18-03-2008, 22:53

I dont get what everyone is on about the wheels look nice

unlike the rest of it

oilburninnut · 18-03-2008, 22:54

i quite like it,a good effort imho

gillywibble · 18-03-2008, 23:05

It's a bit naff, but each to their own.

Robshaw · 18-03-2008, 23:11

It was a nice try...

bahnstormer vrs · 19-03-2008, 09:19

He's spent over £10,000 on it?

Could at least used a vRS as the 'base car'.

Big Mikey · 21-03-2008, 10:18

Bodytone...

john_grant358 · 21-03-2008, 10:25

I like bits of it, i really like the front bumper, but it needs wider arches to balence it out.
The fuel cap look like sh1te and so do the set in rea door handles.
But the fly on the turd has to be them scoops!
