That car,the brand and the model are the most dull, boring,ugly and disgusting thing on wheels you can buy. Full stop right here.

I love my VRs. Its currently just ticked over 174,000 miles, has been remapped for the past 90,000 miles and has only had its first clutch replacement at 160,000. Proper rocket ship if you get a good mapper to map it :)

@@Chr15py_ and end of the day is still disgusting Skoda. Map it how much you want,throw Bugatti Veyron engine on the back seats,make it go to the moon and back..still dull and disgusting Skoda toilet. Inside disgusting fabrics,cheap plastic rubber and even the smell is cheap. Even my dog will brake throughout the window if i chain him inside. What kind of person would buy such piece of toilet is beyond me...

@@eleonik76 - wow....did someone wake up on the wrong side of the bed this morning? Just going to address your comments: "and end of the day is still disgusting Skoda" - You are correct, it is a Skoda. Well done. Disgusting? That is your close minded opinion. "Map it how much you want, throw Bugatti Veyron engine on the back seats, make it go to the moon and back...still dull and disgusting Skoda toilet" - Well a Bugatti Veyron engine wouldn't fit in the back as its based on the chassis of a VW Polo. Also, lets not forget, if you've got the money for a Veyron engine, you wouldn't be looking at Skodas anyway. If you've seen a Skoda that looks like a toilet, then that's because someone has used it as one. "Inside disgusting fabrics, cheap plastic rubber and even the smell is cheap" - Ok so when this car was made, Skoda were the cheapest of the VAG brands...this is a simple fact. The interior is dated and if you compare to an Audi of the same age then yes, its cheap looking. "Even my dog will brake throughout the window if i chain him inside" - goes to say enough about you as a dog owner...irresponsible. You shouldn't lock (let alone chain) dogs in cars as they can die due to heat. Surely you know this fact? Poor dog... "What kind of person would buy such piece of toilet is beyond me" - and this statement proves it is really is beyond you in each and every way! I feel sorry for small, close minded people like you. You're not really living life, you're just hating on everyone else's and that's a bit sad really. As you're obviously in a super happy mood, just stay away from anything you could hurt yourself on ok. Have a great day.

@@Chr15py_ wow man,you went through all that copy/paste shit to prove what?🙈😆 I tell you what. To prove me right,that you guys,Skoda owners,are the saddest and dumbest creatures on earth. And let me give you full stop right here.

Agreed. We hate practicality over here unfortunately.

I guess you're not in China anymore. Haven't watched in a while.

They are as well for me, because I live in eastern Europe

We only have normal cars because fuel is mega expensive in the UK lol!!!!!in fact everything is bloody expensive over here, mainly because of tax.

@laowhy86 Nice to see you commenting. It’s like seeing a celebrity.

Stage 3+ hybrid turbo no service history pulls like a train

Don't need to worry about no service history on them. They're super simple to rebuild and can buy a spare engine for £200

@@tdp2612 dont forget the cosmetic mods i.e. black spray painted alloys, and wind deflectors (the go-to chav mod for 2021)

@@ReplicantBattyman if wind deflectors put you off buying a car you’ll not have a lot of variety 😂

@@Mr330d just helps me avoid the chav magnets. "this audi rs3 looks sick but you know what its missing? some shitty pieces of plastic on the windows"

How do you find the coilovers? I'm considering a set and lowering slightly, want to body roll gone but don't want to break my back!

@@edwardkarran4963 Very pleased with AP coilovers. I just lowered the car about 12mm which sets the wheels centrally in the arch. Car much more stable and planted. Comfort about the same small bumps like road divisions more noticeable but large bumps more controlled. Wheelspin much reduced, both wheels will eventually let go but the traction control doesn't see this and that let's you drive through it. AP a good price point mine where around 480 euro. Others options 200 (bit cheap) or 950 (bit much for a 2005 car) Enjoy....

@@tube7432 Excellent thanks for the advice, I'm looking at a set that are £300

only in a straight line though :) and I bet it won't put a smile on your face like the Clio would. Probably is a bit one dimensional too

@@NeedMoarRage Yeh but the Fabia would drive past you at the next petrol station. I was about to spend £5k on a Nissan 350Z when I read that I'd spend £4,500 on petrol to do 12,000 miles in it. F*ck that!!!

Mines just ticked past 173k. Love my Skud missile lol 😂

That is true, my 1.2 cost me like £300 in my 2nd year of insurance. It's actually quite a nice engine for what it is as it's under square and therefore more torquey than you'd expect

Or VTS as it was the fast one 👍

Mark my words - Saxo’s will have their day. Last of the truly tiny, sit on the floor, crash and you die - hot hatch.

@@davespooney8472 love the crash and you die line. Best description of them.

My dad had one before a EP3 Type R, then on to this fabia.

Rare to find a good one these days!

I had one, loved it. Came with some awesome alcantara seats. No idea why I sold it really, bought a Subaru and it was a pig. Drove it like a right twat though, getting the cams to lift was addictive.

There are a lot of reviews available.

good luck trying to insure that as a new driver, 1.9 diesel 2k a year

@@ZeulDac 1600 first year, 700 second year on a multicar policy with an mx5. Then I got rid of the car

Shame now the aul reds up in price but at least it's not got buckfast stickers on the windows

@@daleboyd8010 kero and a drop of lawnmower oil, works well!

She’s carried many a round of ammunition to crossmaglen

@@Mr330d doubt that mate

As the owner I can speak on this haha! Yes it was bought new in Armagh, had one owner until I bought it in January. It was actually babied it's whole life and I've only put the very best parts on it! Pure white diesel lol. Red won't do it any harm but dippers are while for PDs

Yes this map was excellent it used to pick up from very low down and hold Torque until 4k, stock pd130 run out of puff just past 3k!

Luis Skilla made 600+ on his

@@rh9224 Not standard internals as far as I’m aware

@@EdderzX1 nah it’s not but easy power to be made

@@rh9224 Yeah but this was 600-700bhp totally standard apart from the camshaft and it still lasted 70+ runs at stantapod before it cracked the block and bent the rods smashed to pieces lol just crazy it can hold 5-6x it’s stock power for that long

So true, saw one yesterday the soot plumes were ridiculous 😂

Loool couldn't have said it better myself 🤣🤣

Very nice car but, no offence, wouldnt it need a little bit better power/weight ratio even for the time, to deserve the hot hatch moniker? A citroen AX or 106 with that engine power I could see the case for, dont know about a ZX.

@@GoldenCroc very easy to achieve big power from the 1.9td with one simple Allen key

@@Mr330d That is very good indeed.

I had the 1.9i petrol volcane, Excellent car Not seen one for at least 10 years now Can’t be many left

think the 205dt was earlier, though not exactly 'hot'

Ayyyyyy I've got it as my first car as well. Insurance was cheaper on this compared to an Aygo surpassingly

@@muhammadmore parked up the other day and when I came back another SE was parked next to me W/ a body kit and behind a black Vrs. I didn’t stop to talk but it was quite funny 😄

Have you watched his 156SW vid?

@@jonathanstamp indeed I have. Beautiful car. The 159 is a bit newer and have heard it's more reliable. Also the diesel will help with daily living with better economy. I've driven the 2.4jtdm diesel wagon, 2.2 jts sedan and 3.2V6 jts and I honestly think the diesel doesn't detract from the 'passion' as it has a bit of lag and then dumps all the power!

Elliot Nutter I had a 2.4d BRERA for 2 years and put about 40,000 miles on it - excellent car and have considered a 159SW next but fancy 1.8tbi but they are so expensive!

@@jonathanstamp breras are such beautiful cars. The 3.2 would be the dream for me! Although they have held their value a little too well

I have it with 200k miles it was dads old car…skoda octy vrs

Love my little Fabia vrs. Pulls like a train, pretty nimble, fun and 60mpg. You probably won't remember @jayemms but I saw you in mine outside Porsche Reading a while back, my other cars are a 3.2 Carrera and a V8 vantage, but as a fun daily for under £3k you can't beat the Fabia.
