Pics of my new car (56k no... if any one uses 56k now!)

Had it about a month now, so best get the pictures up eh.

Fabia vRS, 55 plate, 13k miles, 1.9td engine, which is chipped.

Goes well, and gives me 50mpg.

It's no ST, but it's not bad!!

Imaes are re-sized so they are uber small. Hopefully will be at the RR with it :)

Enjoy.

Its a Skoda, doesn't that mean its pants and will fall apart whilst people point and laugh from the pavement?

Oh wait, no it doesn't ;)

Nice looking car :)
 
No way do you own that, I'm calling BS on this one unless you post it with bread. Don't worry everyone is doing it, even the cool kids (phate).
 
you can stick the bread up yer arse! ;)

BHP is 130 (same engine as countless other cars including seat, audi, vw cars) with the chip it should see 160 at least quite easily.

We'll see when I get on the rolling road.

No interior shots yet, but I can do some Raymond if you really want?

Why the change from the ST?

Need to change sig, cheers for reminding me.

The ST's running costs were wearing me down into the ground ,very very expensive not just to buy but to run as well. This will do 50-60 mpg on most runs, cheap to insure, buy and run.

Me and the girlfriend are saving for holiday / house in the future, so need the extra money saved really.

If things don't work out, I'll trade it in and get an s2000, but hopefully they will! :)

Yes please, I am looking for my first car so Interior shots are a big plus. Does it have Air-con, Cd player, electric windows, immobilizer and central locking ?

Nutella?

So with a remap what does that take the performance to?

0-60 is by the guide 9.6 seconds or there abouts, which is very conservative.

My 0-60 is in the region of around 8 seconds,

By no means a hot hatch, but definately warm. Decent handling, can throw it around and have some fun. But essentially cheap fun motorin, even if it's a step down.

Had the ST for 14 months (Was the first on here, and 2nd/3rd in midlands/ Telford to own the ST) and loved every minute of it :)
 
Personally i don't think its 'that much' of a step down, i think they look great, though i've not seen the dash etc on one yet, no doubt ingear performance is quite good :)

Give me a couple of mins mate, I'm dying for the toilet, and need some new batteries for my camera!

Yes to all the above, comes with all of those as standard.

Cool, can you also take a pic of the back and boot, want to see how much leg room there are and how big the boot is.
 
Sorry Raymond didn't see your post.

Took some of the interior and none of the boot / leg room. But it's pretty good. I live out of my boot at times, and easily fit my cooler master stacker in laying down + laptop and clothes.

Pictures being uploaded now.
