ŠKODA LAUNCHES FABIA MONTE CARLO

* A new Fabia model with aggressive, sporty styling and enhanced equipment
* Set to make its first public appearance at Rallye Monte Carlo
Škoda's Fabia line is about to be extended with the introduction of the Monte Carlo, a new model with enhanced sports styling and bespoke interior. Launched to celebrate 100 years of the Monte Carlo Rally, and commemorate the 110 year anniversary of the brand's motorsport efforts, this special edition model is a nod towards Škoda's sporting pedigree.
From the outside, the Fabia Monte Carlo boasts a dynamic look, underlined by the introduction of piano-black body trim, which extend over the wheel arches and down the full length of the car, a black roof, black door mirror covers, a black radiator grille top, smoked headlamps and black 17" lightweight Trinity alloy wheels.
Inside the Fabia Monte Carlo, customers can choose between all black or, red and black sports seats which boast additional side support. Both versions come with black roof lining, a perforated leather steering wheel with red stitching, leather handbrake and gearstick gaiter with red stitching (with the red-black interior option). To complete the enhanced sporty appeal silver kick plates and steel pedals are fitted as standard.
The new Fabia Monte Carlo is set to make its first public appearance at Rallye Monte Carlo (19-22 January), where Škoda's current all-conquering IRC championship winning rally car, the Fabia S2000, finished fourth (in class) on its first outing at this legendary rally in 2009. In 2010, Škoda Motorsport finished second, third and fifth (in class) with Hänninen, Vouilloz and Kopecký, respectively.
Available as hatchback only, the car's trim is based on the current Fabia SE version, and the new Monte Carlo will be available with a wide range of engines.

Thanks for posting/sharing the news.

The Skoda Fabia Monte Carlo is a special edition model which celebrates 100 years of the Monte Carlo Rally and the company's 110 years of participation in motorsports, featuring some extra aggressiveness far as appearance and extra added equipment.
The dynamic aspect is achieved through features like the piano-black body trim, which includes black wheel arches, mirror casings, front spoiler lip and grille, as well as the black roof. The Skoda Fabia Monte Carlo has also received smoked headlamps and a set of black 17 inch alloys and at the interior the automaker is offering its customers the ability to choose from all-black or red and black sports seats.
Both versions include black roof lining, while other interior enhancements include a leather wrapped steering wheel, gearstick and handbrake, all of which get contrasting red stitching. Silver kick plates and steel pedals are also offered.
Buzz up!

Yes, `Duane,
But you can't look in2 my `Mind : )
I do have imaginary cars, because I presently can't afford
my dream Monte Carlo. My imaginary cars are free &
I can drive them in my mind ~> Anytime/AnyWhere
and there's no cost
They are all `free, because to me
"Everything is just a State of Mind"
for what are we without a
Mind
Just a Body that can't think
I think, there for ~> I am
I think
I do my best to Master my `Mind
and only let in what is positive, and if the
negative enters `it, I just use my
mental delete key, or block the bad.
Thanks Member Barovelli for your super contributions
to your Monte Carlo Family.

`Joe, like your new `sig
I was also hoping it was a new CHEVY Monte Carlo : )

`Duane, hows your State of Mind ?
Whose in control of it ?
Peace/Out
