Feeler: My Felicia L&K

philje123 · 07-09-2008, 10:13

Hey there guys... with me getting this new job i'm after something a bit newer and have my eye on a Fabia vRS (after being pleasantly suprised by in surance quotes!!!).

Many of you may have seen it before on the forum from time to time... but heres a couple of pictures:

First... the good:

73,000 miles (still plenty of life left in her)
New Goodyear GT2 tyres about 1,000 miles ago
New discs/pads around 2,000 miles ago
New front N/S brake calipur
New rear shoes
New rear piston thing in the rear brake (forgotten whats its called! lol)
Leather interior (with heated front seats)
New back box not too long ago
Original 13"? Skoda Alloys
Electric mirrors (heated too)
Electric front windows
Sun-roof
Remote locking/immobiliser (no alarm)
Drivers air bag
ABS

And now... The bad:

Needs new CV boot on drivers side
Needs new (i think) bottom engine mount
Could do with new plugs and leads (but think will do those before end of the month)
Due to the above (i think/hope) she is missing a bit and spluttering at low revs/speed
No.4 spark plug cross threaded (needs helicoiling or maybe just new head and do the head gasket at the same time to save doing in future)
N/S Front wing was replaced when someone reversed into me and it's not been done very well (paint has faded and is noticeably a different colour!)
Rev counter doesn't work properly... (although does on occassion! lol)

Thats all i can think of right now...

Looking at selling begining/middle of next month

Thanks

Phil

How much are you thinking of selling it for?

Robshaw · 07-09-2008, 13:08

Man - That's one tidy looking car.

What price are you looking at?

philje123 · 07-09-2008, 15:08

Well... shes not that tidy really... some rust coming through and boot... some rust on rear arches and some coming through on the top of the O/S front wing.

Not sure what to ask for it as i don't have a clue what she's worth... was told £700 to trade in some time ago...

In a way don't want to get rid of her and wish i had the time and money to spend to get her looking good...

Still not entirely sure i will be getting rid... but thought i would gauge interest first and then also see what the dealer will give me to trade her in.

Thanks

Phil

yashicamat · 07-09-2008, 20:23

I've seen this car on several occasions and can vouch for it's condition.

Quite an unusual model too and with the leather, features etc., makes for a better than average first time car.

What ^^ said. Does look nice in the flesh

Captain Sisko · 08-09-2008, 14:26

I've seen it once, at night and its good looking Felly.

you know you want to.....

philje123 · 08-09-2008, 19:13

Went looking at the skoda garage today... 2 Fabia vRS's and a Fabia 1.2 sport have cought my eye!

Only thing is i've just changed the spark plugs and air filter on Nelly... and she's running beautifully...

kocur · 13-09-2008, 18:35

I am from czech republik but I first time see felicia laurint a klement

philje123 · 14-09-2008, 07:28

Not sure if many will have been available over there... I know there were 200 in total... 100 hatch and 100 estates.

I only know of two... mine and an estate on here belonging to FeliciaRacer.

Update on nelly's health...

Just got a new centre exhaust section as that went the other day going to the malt house meet.

Looks very good - I really miss my Felly now (the Octavia is back in the garage - for three weeks nearly now!) I have been driving a few fabias recently and I do rate them. I would think you would get a bit more thank £700 considering condition and it being a limited edition.
