White modified Fabia on Ebay

devonutopia · 26-04-2007, 21:05

eBay.co.uk: 2000 SKODA FABIA MODIFIED (item 110120261008 end time 01-May-07 19:11:13 BST)

Opinions.

I think it's a bit overdone on the outside, but is a wee bit sportier looking than standard.

farky77 · 26-04-2007, 21:18

I see this Fabia nearly every day, the exhausts on it drowns out the noise of my 500hp Volvo Globetrotter when it goes past

Bigw2069 · 26-04-2007, 21:20

LMAO I posted a was it you for this a few weeks ago when I passed it on the city bypass in Edinburgh, sure I made some comment about pointing and laughing, which I did whilst driving

I think it looks terrible and as for the bonnet vent, well...they look good on only one car IMHO and thats an evo.

I agree.

On a MPI engine, it really is pointless beyond the styling effect it's meant to have.

On reply to the evo bonnet: Looks good on the alfa 156 too

lol hehe looks like a toy RC car

- I like it, looks just like one of those cars from NFS underground.. I wouldnt buy/drive that though.. bit "in your face" without the "punch" in the car..

Joff · 26-04-2007, 22:03

Would have looked great if they'd done a white vRS replica. That's just a mess.

Fabia_Stu_13 · 26-04-2007, 22:14

I'm not too surprised to find it's only at £0.99 to be honest..

And though that 99p bid is by rossc that aint me

apd007 · 26-04-2007, 22:43

Reading the review, does anyone else think its been crashed and repaired?

Because of the front end spray? That would be for the ch@evo bonnet vent, grille and the bumper I assume. But maybe a front end crash would sort it out

devonutopia · 26-04-2007, 22:49

I think he was referring more to the permanent airbag light.

Bigw2069 · 26-04-2007, 22:50

Isnt that standard on modified fabias

veeaReSS · 27-04-2007, 10:47

lose the bonnet and rear spoiler and i think its alright.

Would love to have had the option of a white vrs.

d_steashton · 27-04-2007, 15:17

It looks like a storm trooper!! HORRIBLE!!

Joff · 27-04-2007, 16:42

Separated at birth?

lfc958 · 27-04-2007, 18:54

Come on Guys give him some credit

He hasnt tried to pass it of as a vRS

Glider · 27-04-2007, 19:22

My bids in

fordfan · 28-04-2007, 20:46

It looks a bit suspect considering he sold it on Ebay in February here:

eBay.co.uk: 2000 SKODA FABIA - NO RESERVE (item 110086139709 end time 09-Feb-07 16:58:06 GMT)

And got some positive feedback off the buyer, who, coincidentally also lives in that part of the country.

clewsy · 28-04-2007, 23:55

why bother with a 1.4 MPI....the guy could have not modified it so much and bought a better car. He should have saved his pennies and got a vRS, and if he had some left over got it resprayed WHITE because that would look good. Loads of cars looks really good in white these days, I think it's making a come back. The BMW Z4 coupe and Volvo C30 spring to mind, but I think a white vRS would look the business.

Having said that, my Race Blue one will look pretty good (if the dealer ever get their act together and get me it!)

Mouse · 03-07-2007, 22:36

Apart from the spoiler where a standard VRS one should have took its place. I really like it. The previous owner must have been so proud of it and a lot of time effort and money have gone into this. A real bargain and a great colour. Gets a big thumbs up from me. The only white VRS i have seen (OK it`s not a VRS)

Kind of a big finger to all those Skoda perceptions. Bring it on.

Are you kidding!?

That 156 is nothing but a very good lesson in how to screw up something that's already beautiful (ish).

"Looks good on the alfa" ?

Not in my opinion.
