  1. Nice looking car, check to see if it has had the dieselgate fix done to it. I've only had mine a few months but I've not had any major issues so far. It is a smoother engine than the older pd and I'd say I've gotten roughly the same mpgs to a 2l tdi golf we had a while back. Seemingly a remap can up the power to about 145 so it might be worth considering down the road (though i've not yet had a remap done.) Good luck with the motor.
  2. I decided that since I have a thread started for my Monte Carlo,Why not have a thread dedicated to the car that got me to appreciate the Fabia platform as a whole. This is my 2001 Skoda Fabia Comfort 1.9 Sdi. I was given this car in February of 2017 as a car to practice how to drive in .It was bought for just €100 and was out of test about 3 months,however it had new tyres and new brake pads/discs but failed on emissions and a broken handbrake. I took it through all the fields on our farm and learned a massive amount of car control in the process. Since it had 64 hp I had to be constantly changing from gear to gear to keep it moving. And since it had no ABS I learned to put my left foot on the brake to stop the front wheels locking up,but that usually meant the rear wheels would lock instead and I would have to go through corners sideways! However by October I managed to crash it in a field,badly.
  3. This is my 2012 Skoda Fabia Monte Carlo, It is a 1.6 TDI 105 ps model with 89k miles. I bought it on the first of February and have imported it into Ireland since,however it has sat for since due to it being a pain to get insurance. Since it didn't need anything I only clayed and polished the paint,hopefully I will be able to get a remap in the coming months to about 140 ps but I have no other plans for the car. I can't justify doing anything right now as everything on the car is in good condition.
