The Fabia is a fine car that has no more "faults" than any other car. It's not the best handling car but it was never going to be with mr 1.9 6 speed up front (It can be tweeked to be quite good at a modest cost)

The Octavia is not a superior car, thats like comparing Heinz tomoto sauce with tescos. It's not really fair to compare them as they both acheive different things in different ways although I have no doubt this thread will drag the Fanbois out of the woodwork... However if you have no original reason to swithc then don't because you don't "really" want to ;)

If you need resonable performance economy and something that doesn't look like a taxi then your onto a winner. It's not really going to be faster than a Octy out of the box and if your not used to driving a diesel then you need to get used to it to get the most out of it (At which point they can be made to almost fly ;)

Continually doing more and more miles and i want a fun more ecnomical car i guess and Fabia is good as i want to spend under 6k

Economy and chuckability. I know the Fabia's got a big load of pig iron stuck out the front, but it's still a lot shorter so is better for urban driving IMO. Especially with a Jabba RARB.

Octy vRS is loads faster but the economy is way off what's possible if you're careful in the Fabia.
