2004 Skoda Fabia vRS from UK and Ireland - Comments

"Stunning car you'll grow to love"

What things have gone wrong with the car?

Only got the car last week, so not much to report on the reliability front.

General comments?

Have now had my wee Fabia for 5 days and you would have to shoot me to get the keys out my hand.

I love it already.

The look on the faces of drivers who approach from behind (in their cars that is) is priceless.

You can actually see them blinking in disbelief at the site of a Skoda Badge disappearing into the distance in front of them.

Its even funier when they eventually catch up.

You can clearly see the embarrasment in their faces that their "sooped up " fiestas and corsas, let alone golf GTIs have been outpaced by a car that some silly person has stuck a Skoda badge on.

Everyone else on this review page has already made all the good points, so I'm not going to bore you with it all again.

I'm not the richest guy in the world, but for the above mentioned pleasure it was worth the 12K alone.

I have not bought a Fabia yet, but I have stopped looking round at other cars as my mind is seriously made up.

Are the xenon head lights worth £500?

Any other extras anyone can recommend?

Does anyone else agree, that if the yellow colour available for the vRS was that of the ibiza/leon it would be more of a choice?

(no offence yellow car owners)

I'd recommend heated seats. Can take a long time to warm the diesel engine up in very cold conditions.
