We wrapped up Executive Detailing over 2 years ago but I've still got the gear and cars so I though it's time to do another. I had plans to do the typical full write up but quickly came to the conclusion that I really couldn't be bothered! So there's no write up, how to or what I used but there is plenty of after pics and hopefully by tonight a mini youtube vid.

This is my car (The Black Penis Torpedo) after about 10 hours work.Crazy Thank god for the garage as this weather is getting on my tits!.

Official Skoda lowering springs to come. Skoda Fabia vRS Estate Power!!!!!!!!

(PS. 180bhp + DSG = Wayyyyy faster than the 6. But not in the twisties!) Whistle

I didn't buy it for it's looks but I'm starting to like it a lot more now. The estate is def better proportioned than the hatch.

Once it's lowered it'll look better too!

Skoda POWER!!!!

I love it! I hired a 1.2 tsi turbo estate Fabia in Portugal and that was quite zippy for a little engine, and bags of space for 4 of us and luggage.

I reckon once lowered it'll look the business. In fairness they are a better looking car than the hatch which looks too top heavy for me

The only way I found it on the website was unchecking the hide properties under offer box.

Although just tried again and it found it with it checked.

Car is looking good! Smile (detailing wise LOL)

I don't really know what were Skoda engineers and designers drinking when they came out with that interior! It would have been good 7-8 years ago, but now!? It should be loads more sporty and futuristic (to be on pair with the really nice front end) Something like this:




Btw. I'm massively disappointed by the DSG, as just drove one today (in a Passat 2.0 TDI)... Okay it does change gears fast but it's still a dumb automatic gearbox, which does not do what I would like to. I would have a manual anyday... Or put flappy paddles on the DSG and I'll have it! Big grin

DSG isn't an auto box, its a full double clutch manual with a computer between it and the driver.
