coolrado 0 Posted March 31, 2009 just been offered a Skoda Felicia Fun for a decent price, I have to say I love the mad style of it even if it is a pickup, what other car has frogs with crowns on the seat fabric, yellow leather interior and a pair of extra seats that fold out of the back? :cuckoo: I know it has the same 1.6 petrol engine as the polo but is there anything I need to look out for? anyone on here have any experience with them?

bcstudent 0 Posted April 1, 2009 I've never seen a car so in need of a 1.8T conversion. There's one of those things parked near my house and, I have to say, I kinda like it. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

There's one of those things parked near my house and, I have to say, I kinda like it. the guy who has this one lives just up the road from me and has had it for a while, his was the first i had seen and i said to him when he bought it, if he ever wanted to sell it let me know first. but i agree a 1.8 turbo would be a fun prospect 8) are you sure it's a polo 1.6, I thought the felicias had the last of the agricultural based skoda engines :) it appears to be the same 1.6 petrol engine as my mates polo mk3 variant estate has in it, and it seems to go quite well, it's a 2000 model so Skoda should have been using vw bits by then shouldnt they? edit: found this on wikipedia The Felicia's line-up included the old 1.3 L OHV Škoda units, now with Bosch Mono Motronic single-point fuel injection (up until 1997), and Siemens multi-point fuel injection with two power outputs of 54 hp (40 kW) and 68 hp (50 kW). There was also two engines sourced from VW: a 75 hp (55 kW) 1.6 L petrol engine with Magneti Marelli multi-point fuel injection and a 64 hp (47 kW) 1.9 diesel. ooooh 75 hp :shock: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
coolrado 0 Posted April 3, 2009 well i pick up the pick-up early next week, needs a few little bits sorting out on it, but overall its not bad, its on a set to TSW catalunya's with black centers and polished lips and its pretty low on eibach suspension, might have to raise it a bit as it's not really practical as a pick-up at the moment :) will post up some pics next week of this nutty vehicle.
