Fabia vRS - SOLD

farky77 · 09-08-2008, 09:55

Hi all. I'm having to sell my Fabia vRS as i need a car i can fit a tow bar to so i can tow my Son's quad.
The car is a 2004 o4 plate, Red in colour with a genuine 41000mls from new. Full Service History with the belts being changed at 37000mls. Mot'd til 29th May 2009 ant Tax'd til end April 2009. I have ALL the receipts for everything, service book fully stamped etc etc.Recent rear discs and pads and front pads. New radiator replaced under Warranty2 month ago.
The car is in excellent condition throughout, obviously the odd stone chip on the front of the car, nothing to detract the look or value of the car though!!
I've added KW lowering springs which i honestly feel ride far better than the standard springs, alot less 'crashy' over the bumps and that wee bit firmer for the corners. I have the standard springs to give to the new owner if they wish.
I've also fitted 17inch TT comps to the car which IMHO really suit the look of the Fabia vRS. Tyres have LOADS of life left in them, at least 5ml each tyre. Seat Cupra front splitter, small vRS door decals and i've painted the chrome grill surround red and added the new style Octavia vRS badges which i think finish the car of nice. The grill surround could be doing with a re-paint as its started to flake where the stones have chipped it. I may even have it re-painted before its sold.
Also has factory fitted cruise and front mudflaps.
All in all a excellent looking, well cared for car that i really dont want to sell but as i've said, i need something i can tow with and i really dont want to risk Invalidating my insurance by towing with the Fabia!!
I really dont know what to advertise it for, but after looking on the Autotrader, Pistonheads eBay etc, i'd like £5995 for it.
I have seen cheaper for that age but they've all got ALOT higher miles etc etc. Drop me a PM if your interested, i'll ALWAYS reply.
Located in Scotland, 10 mins from Edinburgh Airport and Train Station. This is the most recent pic i have of the car.....

And some before the wheels were put on a couple about a month ago..

Thanks, Ian

No pics of interior mate. It'll be spotless at weekend as its getting valeted.
Theres no rips, tears or signs of wear. Car hasnt been smoked in.
It'll be a bargain for someone. As stated in previous posts, i hope to sell quick as i have my eye on another car.

Thanks, Ian
