Against a Mini hater in a Fabia VRS! I'm only guessing because he spat on another Mini as it pulled up to the lights at Haggs Road. (Anyone on here?) He had been sitting on my bumper most of the way before the lights turned red so I decided to remind him he still drove a Skoda. Was pretty even through first but as soon as I hit second he disappeared!
P.S. Was black Fabia so if anyone sees one around Glasgow don't get too close, I hear his spit is like acid!
Exactly, he was trying to pass me on the motorway on ramp I'm sure. Yes I was bragging, but only because I know that before a superchip I would have been mince meat for a VRS. But now afterwards, he hardly saw which way I went. I just was letting the other One owners know how much of a difference a superchip will make. No harm in that I'm sure. If you do have some kind of sympathy for the driver of the Fabia, feel free to voice it. I know I don't, he was a **** who clearly didn't like Mini's as he showed by spitting on one. Spitting out your car window is disgusting, but spitting on another Mini really got me going. That's why I humbled him because it was clear from his actions he thought Mini's were below him.
I have had similar problems with the Saxo lot where i live, they do things like spit, through eggs and leave the wiper blades up on our Minis! !!!!
They are just a load of boy racers that also sit on our bumpers, with just bluefin a VTR its bang even, but now im running in the region of 140bhp the VTS is to struggles at the lights now!
The Saxo VTS is a very quick car though for what it is, I was very suprised with it's performance when my mate had one, I drove his and compared it to my MINI One which was remapped, exhaust, air filter etc and the VTS would of easily phished all over it still
can someone tell me where to get the super chip from and how easy it is to take out and has ppl informed there insurance about having 1 ? im new to the game so im learning im 17 and paying daft insurance any way for my mini one but if its just a simple 5 min thing then ill put 1 in.
so price and info would be nice ppl
Try Lohen - that's where I got my Bluefin. £299 with free delivery (ask nicely you might get 5% MINI2 discount )
You don't physically install/remove anything from the car, it is an ECU remap which is uploaded via a device plugged into a port under the steering column. Takes 5-10 minutes to do.
Yes. You are obliged to by law
As a new 17-year old driver I don't fancy your chances of getting insurance on any modifications I'm afraid, but good luck!
to be fair though, if the fabia had been superchipped, you would have been smoke..... my mate runs a Golf gti pd130 (same engine as fabia) with an amd remap and its been rolling road tested at 185 bhp, with a **** load of torque!!!! imagine that in a fabia... bye bye mini. (I have a cooper by the way, but im not biased, just realistic.)
guys do what i did and get even i have had the works sound kit with the motorsport remap 133bhp, and its AWSOME don't worry about vts or skoda fabias now, i started hunting the bigger game. lotus excige even tipped his hat to me the other day on a job well done for almost out gunning him. but it's a lot more fun. got bored with beating those vts etc.......
at one point i even started to give them a head start. and still one
