Hello all - New Fabia VRS Reading

jpm1111 · 22-11-2007, 10:16

Hi Everyone,

I'm in Reading and have just changed my Clio 182 cup for a 3 year old Fabia VRS. I'm still a bit sad as the Clio was great fun, but I was only getting 24 mpg on my commute as the traffic is so bad

I've had the Fabia since the weekend and got to drive it in all the snowstorms on the A1(M) on Sunday night heading down towards London. I've found it to be brilliant so far, very stable, refined, no rattles and lots of torque. Very different experience to the Clio then! I got 51 mpg on a recent motorway run and am getting 38 mpg on my commute so very pleased

Needs an interior valet as the seats are pretty dirty - if anyone could make a recommendation in the Reading area it would be appreciated!

Cheers,

James

Welcome to Briskoda mate from another Fabia Vrs owner

I take it you have the white seats then mate?

Bit of a pain to keep clean but I would recommend you look for a seat cover for the winter mate or scotchguard them.
