Bravo Meet Clunky.

EWWW VAG :yuck:
Theres a nice Abarth 500 in the Garage im getting my T-jet from £9000

Love to but I'm sold on the fabia may not have the best image but if it means I save £4800 over the same specced polo, I can't say I'm caring too much

 

[ascott92]

Wheels and coilovers still for sale, make me an offer

 

[hammy1990]

wow that a smart looking skoda!

 

[wegi]

Got any mod plans for the Fabia?

 

[Chris Stefani]

We'll both have notquitePolos just the 1.2tsi, so it'll cost peanuts to run. You got your Ibiza yet?

1.2TSI is a good engine I hear.

I was speaking to a boy yesterday who has a Fabia vRS (1.4TSI 170PS, but with a tuning box taking it to ~210 - it's bloody fast!) who rates the 1.2TSI rather highly. One of his mates has a 1.2TSI fabia, and although it's rated as 105PS, it's actually making 125bhp on a rolling road. So you have a good motor there. I am sure it'll respond well to some tuning tweaks

I have a 1.4TSI 180PS Seat Cupra and yeah it's a good engine. I think I'm just gonna map it to 200 but it can be mapped to 220+.

And yeah the 1.2TSi will be able to be remapped to be pretty damn nippy too.

Cheers buddy, it's shocking, right

Got any mod plans for the Fabia?

Nah buddy, I'm on a three year contract that doesn't say it doesn't allow mods, but I am going to save up. It's PCP so I have a big payment at the end, or hand the keys back. Hopefully by that stage I am graduating and going into full time employment (and not having to pull seven day weeks) so I'm probably handing the car back and moving on and up.

Yeah, there's a few of them that are above rated power, so I'm hoping I have one of them :devil: That being said, the car feels a lot better than the Bravo anyway, because it's a turbo so is a lot more torquey. I don't think I've exceeded 2000rpm once yet, simply because it is so much more effortless to drive.

 

[ascott92]

Just searched my old reg for this car. Turns out it was auctioned. Feel sorry for it .

As an aside, I still have wheels and coilovers for sale. Prepared to sell for a very low price now, so PM if interested.

How did you search that mate?

 

[ascott92]

How did you search that mate?

Just google. They listed the reg plate so it showed the results

 

[Joshhh]

Nice new motor mate, looks tidy as ****!

 

[BravoCity]

What wheels you have for sale mate?

 

[Matthewr1990]

What wheels you have for sale mate?

Dude this was 2 years ago

 

[BravoCity]

Lol 2 years ago but those alloys sure I've seen them on eBay

 

[Matthewr1990]

You've probably seen a set of these alloys. I'm not saying they aren't his. But after 2 years I'd of given up and chucked them in a skip by now ?

 

[BravoCity]

Lool

 

[ascott92]

No wheels for sale here mate, I've been clean of my wheel purchasing and selling addiction for two years. *proud*

 

[ascott92]

I'm having a think about re-entering the Bravo fold when my contract for the Fabia runs out in 10-ish months. I'm doing a bit of homework now so I can be in a position to test drive a range of cars before it does, and I know I like Bravos so they are somewhere near the top of the list.

I was wondering, has anyone driven a Multiair and a T-Jet 150. What are the big differences between them, and how well does a Multiair remap?

 

[carlorff]

You are finally coming to your senses and rethinking Bravo. I was thinking of changing a while back and I bough another one a year ago. Was thinking a few weeks back that I will change it for Santa Fe, but Bravo just fits me, and I really like the whole shape of the car and gadgets it has.
