thinking of selling the fabia vRS
« on: July 20, 2011, 07:52:39 pm »
Thinking of seling the fabia vRS.  bit of a random buy for me tbh, was looking at all sorts of different cars most of which easily tuned to 300hp+ and completely randomly bougjt the fabia, urged on by the miss us.

Tbh its a great little car, nippy as you like, awesome on fuel but there's something that just makes me keep looking elsewhere.  Never did this with the octavia until id had it a few years.  There's also that thought in the back of the mind about the engine going pop, as all I seem to see are engine failure thread on SCN.

So im looking at cars that could replace it. Must handle well, have a strong reliable engine for tuning purposes, and a good tuning market.

What do you reckon? Doesn't have to be VAG would consider BMW, ford, VAG and pretty much anything else but a vxr

Would you consider another Octy?

Only had the Fabia 2mins!  Least you got a great deal so you're not going to be losing out.

I know mate. Don't get me wrong its a great ar, but theres something not clicking.  It made sense to go for it at the time as i was meant to be away with work for a while in sept, but changes in work plans mean I can go abit more nuts

If i did it would have to be a tsi and not the tfsi so prob over budget.  Don't think id lose to much on the fabia, got it really cheap anyway, plus got the map and stuff free as well

Megane is a super shout.  :happy2:
