TMB thanks! Solved my problem

I meant my old 1.9 litre Fabia

Hi again, I still haven't got my new used Skoda, but looking seriously now. I have seen a few that Fabia estates that are 1.0 TSI or 1.2 TSI, but 90PS. Would this be sluggish compared with my old 1.6 litre Fabia? I drive a 200 mile round trip about once a month, and also occasionally drive 300 miles from Sheffield to central Scotland with four adults and a boot full of luggage.

Thankyou roottoot, that's really helpful!

I have been driving a 2007 1.9L Skoda Fabia diesel estate for about 12 years. I'm looking to buy a 'new' secondhand car and have seen some petrol 2015 and 2017 Skoda Fabias with 1.2L engines. I don't know much about engines, but I read something about newer cars having differently designed engines so that the smaller engine will not mean less power. Is this right, and would 2015 and/or 2017 have the newer type engines? Grateful for any information 🙂
