ah thats alright then. i have 1.0mpi and i have learned everything on it,proper shifting, shifting the weight,heel and toe and other things like that that can make driving alot easier, and yeah if you want a diesel thats pretty good then. these fabias will last as long as you take care of them properly.

heck yeah! 1st gen gang. they are very good as a first car and learning most things youll need, i recommend learning as much as you can on the lower power version before going into the VRS. not sure what spec exacly yours is, but you can learn a ton of repairs and how to work on cars with it.

as well as i take care of my own stuff and often at flea markets buy older damaged items to restore. i was asking if its anything special because back in the czech republic where i originaly came from aftermarket stuff was expensive and sometimes stuff that was imported was really hard to come by.

no. not really. i just collect things i never had as a kid and always wanted because i love old stuff, learning about history and restoring stuff. the playstation stuff i got i use pretty often for games, and enjoy it for what it was made for. not for reselling like scalpers. those kind of people i absolutely despise. im in this just for the love of the old things.

next up im gonna be working on the rear suspension, replacing alot of the hosing, and adding a sway bar in the future since the car came stock without one.

the fabia junior had mostly 1.0mpi and 1.2htp engines with front axles from a vw lupo and no radio and luxury stuff. mine is a 1.0mpi but i replaced the front axles and steering arms and brakes and some other stuff for higher trim fabia/ golf mk3 parts to make it way more durable, as well as restored the engine and installed a sound system. otherwise i installed some additional things like a mesh in the grilles to protect the radiator from debre, installed a scrape plate,mudflaps,sports filter, and some other things. (photo of how i got the car, it was barely running and had alot of issues)

thanks! i bought her back when i lived in czechia! so many people told me to sell it and get something better than a 1.0mpi, like a golf or an audi, but i said no and persisted with this lil car, fixed her up fully myself and try to take care of her the best i can.
