Default Hi!

Hi everyone, found this site today while "working", loved it and registered straight away.

I'm currently getting Palmers of Watford to find me a decent '05-'55 plate Furby vRS, I've read that the coil pack is temperamental and there could be a hesitation at 1800rpm. Is there anything else I should be on the look out for? Anybody used Palmers before?

I've got a test drive booked for this Friday and I can't wait

Welcome.

You'll not have a coil pack on the Fabia-vrs. Hesitation occurs on cars fitted with the BLT version engine.

You can find info on the dealers in the dealer review section.

Welcome to Briskoda.
Don't worry about the "coil pack problem". That only occurs on cars with petrol engines, and the Furbie vRS is a diesel. I'd be surprised if it hesitates at 1_800, and if it does, I have one word for you "remap"!
