cash68 7 Report post Posted March 10, 2008 is that me or the skoda look a lot like a vw Golf Mk2.except for the front bumper part but the VW golf is more cute. Its not because i have a VW that i'm biaised ok !? It's the same car. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Škoda_Auto Skoda= owned by VW. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Lilith Report post Posted March 10, 2008 DavidB yes i think you are being bias as my skoda obviously looks much much nicer cash68 actually you're wrong, the skoda felicia is based on the same floorpan as the skoda favorit, which was an all skoda designed vehicle (pre vw), also this felicia has the original (pre vw) skoda 1.3 engine, so it's basically the last of the pure skodas, apart from a bosch injection unit and some vw updated interior.

cash68 7 Report post Posted March 11, 2008 Huh. Weird. Well, they share VW switches, engines, steering wheels, and the design was influenced by VW... so... who knows. It looks like VW just repackaged one of their successful body styles to me. >shrug< Either way, cool car. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Lilith Report post Posted March 11, 2008 well a lot of the new models are just that. but this is a skoda felicia, trust me - it's a skoda favorit (pre vw) with an updated skin, and a 136 engine (pre vw). Therefore skoda fans etc regard this as the last true skoda. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

cash68 7 Report post Posted March 12, 2008 That last picture is hilarious. A guy taking a photo of a guy taking a photo of a guy who's broken down who's looking back with an expression of "Gee thanks for helping Mr. Photographer!" haha. Classic. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Renzsu 4 Report post Posted April 23, 2008 Heh, a high octane bunch of designers here that's for sure! small update on my scoot.. trusty commute pal maaan, I want a zoomer sssooo much! Fel in love with them first time I saw one. They cost around £2400 -$4800 which is just way more than I can afford so its looking very unlikely :ermm: Yeah, they're pricey.. I messed around with it a bit more.. it'll have discbrakes on the front soon with a matching rim Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest acinonyx Report post Posted April 23, 2008 this topic is fun really..this is my old car I loved it. the transmission failed so I had to part with it..the pic is on a speed bump actually a run of an experiment for a particular thesis. at the back you see a scene of METU in summer Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest acinonyx Report post Posted April 23, 2008 I ordered a 2007 CBR600RR this past weekend. I'll be picking it up in March (too much snow around here to ride until then). Can't wait... Photo from the motorcycle show last weekend: Photo from an online magazine test: I experienced this beauty of a friend..110 ps 120 somethin in kg..the ratio is impressive I felt the power .
