    Re: Fabia vRS - Mean Machine

    Preferred the old Fabias as well. 130bhp on the vRS wasn't going to set the world on fire, but throw in 60+ mpg and you've got a good little car. Held there value far too well for my liking...

    Re: Fabia vRS - Mean Machine

    The things has got 180Bhp(ish) and still pulls 45MPG combined! i was almost decided that i wanted one of these due to the pretty reasonable asking price but when i saw the new Fabia in the flesh i was sooooooo dissapointed.

    Get the Ibiza instead, basically the same car just much better looking. Can get that one in an FR 5 door 150BHP diesel with a manual anyway.

    Re: Fabia vRS - Mean Machine

    The new Fabia is SO tall - like driving a van - I don't know how they're expecting it to be a hot hatch when it's such a tall driving position - and yeah they can lower it, but they can't actually make the design less high...
