I love my Skoda Octavia and having paid off my 2nd one, a 2016 Octavia vRS mk3 5e, I decided to "do it up". Adding new MCA suspension, Milltek exhaust, Racing Line stage 1 tune and Racing Line intake system and turbo inlets has turned my family wagon into a sleeper that brings a smile to my face every day! The sound while not like those in this video you can sense the animal lurking beneath as it now punches out ~320hp

Skoda was always good in rallying. This generation of the Fabia was made from 2001 until 2007, 3 generations have followed it. Before was the Felicia, which is a reworked Favorit, produced from 1994-2001, 1985-1994 respectively. The interesting story of the Favorit is that it was the first front-engine model of the brand since a long time (1960's I think), and it was during the production of the Favorit that Volkswagen bought the brand, reworked the Favorit (injection istead of a carburetor) and in '94, they did a major uphaul, and renamed the model Felicia. I drive one myself, from 1999. At that time, they had optional extras like AC, ABS, airbags, power windows, but where I live, in Hungary, it was a poor people's car, so mine has three extras: a cigarette lighter, central locking and a sunroof. The Favorit/Felicia were made as pickup van and panel vans as well, the Felicia had an interesting version, labelled "Fun", which was basically a pickup, but with the rear panel of the cabin retractable, unfolding two more rear seats and a now open rear section, it is worth a googling. During the soviet era, there were models like the 1000 MBX, which was a coupe of their first rear-engine sedan. Also, this was a unibody design, we are talking beyond the iron curtain, 1964. Later, there were coupe models like the 110 RS and Garde/Rapid, which were rear-engined coupe's, and handled a bit like Porsches, therefore their nickname poor man's Porsche (peasant's Porsche in lit. translation from Hungarian). I would advise you to google these ones, too, and my main point after this large detour, the Felicia Kit Car, that was a great rally car, as well. And one last intersting fact, Skodas were made with basically the same engine block from the 1000MB in 1964 until the Felicia, an OHV one, which started as a 1000ccm, and went up to 1300ccm a bit before the Favorit, but was also built into the Fabia, with 1400ccm. The same pushrod engine from the sixties, which was designed in the 1920's by NSU. My car has this same block, with 50kW of power. It purrs like kitten, but can perform if needed until safe highway speed, it can get up to 160 km/h / 100mph without much of a difficulty. When the Felicia came out, journalists were joking on the cat that the rpm gauge has a green field, from 2000rpm until 3500, implying that under 2000 it is weak, and over 3500 it is just noisy but does not perform. Kinda true, but those opinions are exaggerated of course. I hope I managed to give you some interesting information, have a good one!

[@jinxvrs]

I believe the 1st generation Fabia came out in 1999 - I bought one in July 2000. Production of the earlier Felicia may have overlapped with the Fabia Mk I.

[@JohnZonneveld]

think these are later, we had the ugly Fabia as company car, i started in 2000 and got an Astra SW, after 3 years a Stilo Multiwagon. But soon after the Stilo MW wasn't delivered anymore. Guess that was somewhere in 2005, then our engineers got a Fabia, these were pre facelift Fabia's that were made until 2004.

Jako fanda rallye a Octavie WRC zvláště ....... taky jsem viděl ve státech Top Fuell dragstery ........ když to srovnám tak dragstery pro zvukový zážitek jsou asi tak 100x lepší (fyzicky se třese vzduch a zem, jeden týpek s turbínovým dragsterem náklaďákem machrování pro diváky přehnal a ulámal větve stromů 50m za plotem, a taky tím 30 plamentem totálně ušvařil asi 30 m asfaltu), jinak Top Fuel dragster má okolo 10 000 koní (slovy deset tisíc) a na rozdíl od Fabie WRC nemá ani katalyzátory, ani tlumiče výfuku, ani turbínu která by tlumila výfuk. 300 koňový WRC je zvukově takový malý směšný nic. Tudíž nechápu jak může být Američan unešený ze zvuku prdícího WRCa. Nespíš si z nás děla srandu, protože ani jednou nezmínil ultimátní jízdní vlastnosti těch WRC motokár, což je na rallye to úplně nejdůležitější.

[@pavelcerny9803]

It's not really common for people in America to even know about Škoda or Tatra, so the fact that you admire them is for me, a Czech, really fascinating :D My family had always a Škoda as far as I remember, starting with the old, dark blue 105, blue Favorit, black Felicia, silver Fabia (first gen), then my father got second gen Fabia as a company car and nowadays I drive the Rapid liftback. I always wanted Octavia, well, the Rapid is at least using some parts from the first gen Octavia even if it's a car about 14 years younger. I am still quite young and haven't driven too many cars, but the Škoda is the most enjoyable car I have driven so far. One day, I'd love to rally with a Škoda car, and my crazy dream is to finish the Dakar rally with a Škoda onde day :D. Anyway, I hope you'll make it into the Mladá Boleslav Škoda museum, I was there years ago and really enjoyed it, as there were really interesting models. I remember they had some kind of prototype Rapid (liftback) on display even before it went into production and I was so surprised how great and futuristic it looked. Of course, the serial model is way simpler, but I still love that car and as a relatively young kid I didn't expect it'd be my first car one day :) Edit: Also, my father somehow used to have a Tatra 613 after the revolution when he was young, but sold it later. He never spoke about it and told me only coincidentaly, and you could feel how he regrets selling it to this day

Historically, Škoda was a large arms factory on the level of the German Krupp. In addition to passenger cars, it has a division of heavy industry, it also manufactures locomotives, turbines for power plants and pressure vessels for nuclear reactors, in the past Czechoslovakia built entire nuclear power plants with its own help, also tanks, fighters and bombers for export, something from this industry still exists, after all Tatra it also has a weapons division. It's a shame that Škoda only has a civilian program. I recommend looking at the old Škoda RS 130 and RS 200 specials.

You know what's funny... Usually when you meet a Škoda Fabia in civil driving, it's usually some pensioner driving like at least 30km/h below max speed limit and basically they're there just to be overtaken... like an obstacle. But don't get me wrong, it's still cool to see someone being genuinely excited about seeing a Fabia. 😅

[@onesix944]

the pops and bangs are combustion in the exhaust manifold to maintain turbo spool, its called anti-lag, it means the engine can maintain boost even when they're off throttle for instant power. the more you know :) if you wanna see a cool anti lag system check out the subaru "rocket" anti-lag

The Mk1 Fabia and Octavia both in diesel and petrol, carry one of the most successful engines the VAG group has ever made, namely the 1.8 I4T and the 1.9 I4 TDI, a cheaper alternative to the 2.2 I5T and 2.5 I5T TDI.....however, very tuning approachable! Biggest issue is rust! P.S. It's like choosing between a Golf, Audi A4, A6, a station wagon with more or less TWR (thrust to weight) and money to maintain it......all of the VW, Skoda, Seat, Audis had the same engine....

Skoda is really a car for WRC-Champions! The current World Champion, Kalle Rovanperä, was driving Skoda in WRC 2-Class and win also that Championship before the "main" WRC-Class. Last season Skoda won both the WRC 2 and WRC 3 - Classes World Championships. Both with Finnish drivers and co-drivers, both women!!! Skoda is basically like VW. Same main parts, little bit different inside and different design. Great car for much cheaper than the same VW. VW has always been the most "over priced" car at least in Europe. Tribute to Ken Block! Ken driving and "studying" the legendary WRC Group B Audi Quattros in a secret Audi "museum" in Germany. He really is/was like a kid in a candy store, cause it was always his childhood dream to try these beasts. He was a Pro WRC-Driver first, so he knew these things and heard the stories. You will find videos also here in Ytube. Best Regards from Finland!! Ps. Audi had built a third, "supersonic" Group B car, half the size of the Quattros, but it was so "over the top", that it was never used for racing. And then "the End" came for that era. Best Regards from Finland!!

If successful, both Rally Tennessee dry-runs will position Chattanooga and southeastern Tennessee as the potential location for the WRC’s first American round since the Washington-based Olympus Rally hosted three events in 1986-’88. And with the WRC and its participating manufacturers keen to add the U.S. market to the calendar, that could be as soon as 2024." good news for rally fans in the US

[@PuzonX86]

In Poland, the Skoda brand is seen as cars for retirees, cab drivers or sales representatives - usually in white, beige (or some other boring color). By design, these are supposed to be cars slightly larger than the class competition, at a good price, with clever extras like umbrella compartments. Of course, Skoda wants to change the image of a boring brand by competing in the WRC, adding more powerful engine versions or more interesting colors. My favorite is the Skoda Superb in the 2.0 TSI engine version with 280 hp - it's almost the same engine as the one in the Golf R so it's easy to raise its power even to 500 hp. Plus the station wagon body and "dragon skin" color with black accessories. - Audi RS6 killer 🤣 This would definitely not be a boring car to drive every day

[@Dejanthedj]

While in the rest of Europe, it is seen as a brand for clever people, it is cheaper than premium brands but it definitely adds values and has everything you need to have in a car! Skoda is most selling brand f.e. in the Czech Republic and Switzerland. They are now becoming quite expensive, I believe this brand will be soon hitting different segment as Superb, Kodiaq or Enyaq are definitely cars reaching very high stylish and luxury feeling cars.

the noise drama is a result of having an extra fuel injector spraying directly into the exhaust header, just to keep the turbo at full boost to avoid having to spool up after changing gear sounds even better live. be illegal now due to emission laws. the flame pop happens when so much is injected it uses all the oxygen in the exhaust and ignites on mixing with the outside air. have seen this on saloon car races 30 years ago

Welcome to the Skoda Fabia R5. The Skoda rally car you can actually buy: kzbin.info/www/bejne/labbhWqjl9GJpJo Not entirely sure if you can get them to be completely road legal though.

[@MartinFransson]

That was awesome! He should really react to that one!

2:45 its Skoda Fabia 1 generation started in late 90"s, 1999

[@IanDarley]

The Fabia, VW Polo and Seat Ibiza are all the same platform.

[@GICaesar100]

2:55 Based on mask it looks like build on 1st Fabia generation. I have same mask on my 2004 Fabia Combi I.

Personally, I have watched almost all the large-scale motoring competitions in the world and I believe that the king of the competitions is undoubtedly the WRC, which is much more spectacular even than F1!

[@22fret]

Those first gen Fabias were built from 1999 onwards. So meanwhile they have passed the 20 year mark quite some time ago...

[@StakrCZ]

If you were driving a classic Fabia, you wouldn't be so excited. 🙂 It have 1.2l 3 cyllinder engine (1.2l HTP) 44 kW (59 HP) with consume 9.4l/100km (25.02 MPG)

[@gggggggg3542]

Skoda Fabia is based on VW Polo (VW Fox in America), loads of people think it's a Golf (Rabbit), but it ain't. What they are, are decent cars for people who don't really care about badge prestige

[@darixcz]

Yep czech skoda love it.

[@PwinoP]

Hi mate, you should have a look at the Skoda Fabia VRs 1.9 tdi. These cars are absolutely insane when modified.

[@yoggiee]

you have too check out different rallycross cars, they are like a wrc car on steroids =D

[@chixma7011]

I suspect there’s been a few adjustments made to the rally version. 😳 My 2006 version doesn’t make that noise, but then I don’t drive it like that to go to the shops so it’s probably just as well. 😂

Jup, popping while breaking. Or, as one in Japan would say: Misufiringu shistem!

The Fabia WRC was the successor of the Octavia WRC program, similar proven technology and know-how pressed into a smaller package (they sound pretty much identical imo). Not sure how this didn't have more success with the works team - it could absolutely be fast, McRae came agonizingly close to a podium finish in Australia 2005 before having to retire with technical difficulties. The legend says the faulty part was a Ford product

[@Bastelopa_wie_mein_Channelname]

The problem was poor accessibility to parts in the engine compartment. Not only work on the engine, but also on the clutch and transmission very often took more time than allowed in the service park. This then led either to the end of participation or to a car that was not 100% efficient. That only changed with the Fabia S2000. With him, Skoda no longer took part in WRC-1, but in WRC-2 and the European Champion Ship Rally, which Skoda has dominated since then and with the weaker cars even move in the time slots of WRC-1 cars.

[@YBM2007]

@@Bastelopa_wie_mein_Channelname TIL, cheers!

[@vcvrk5334]

this rally specials from Škoda eats cca 70 liters per 100 km distanc. When they got switch on Rally mode. (and your second pronunciation "shkoda" os perfectly sounds like Škoda)
