Hi,

I have seen 3 different Fabia 1.9 TDi's (all comfort spec) but can't decide which to go for, I have test driven 2 of them (going to see the other either tomorrow (08/07/09) or Friday (10/07/09)). Here are the three:

1. Auto Trader UK - SKODA Fabia 1.9 TDi Comfort (Rang the dealer and he siad the milage has just ticked over 100k)

2. Auto Trader UK - SKODA Fabia 1.9 TDi Comfort

3. Auto Trader UK - SKODA Fabia 1.9 TDi Comfort

I'm not keen on the dark green colour at all - so it would have to be the red/orange one for me

Yep, agree with red as the better looking of the three.

Number 3 for me. Looks nice in that dark red

Why a diseasal?

it's all about the torques, the torques and the mpgs dammit...

of the 3, go for the red one (don't like the green either)

Torque wins races, but bouncing off the limiter impresses chicks, and your mates will be impressed with how low your MPG gets!

i agree with the others, red is a better colour in, but the middle green one has the best mileage for the price so i think i would live with the colour and go for this one, depending on previous owners + condition etc.

dunno chris , its more which grabs you the best really , if you dont get out thinking ... yeah like that , look at some more.

will your new wheels fit ?

I've seen very low mpgs in my diseasel Ibiza. grrrrr

Test drove the first one and it had done 117k, and the gear stick felt like it had some friction against it.

Also going to have a 2nd test drive of the 3rd one and get the RAC to have a look at it. Forgot to mention the red/orange one has had a new fuel filter fitted.

I like the dark green metallic one - guess it depends on service history and so on - cambelts and anti-roll bars can be expensive jobs . . .

My car is now sold and I also put a depoist on the red/orange coloured fabia

But bouncing off a 200 rpm rev-limiter doesn't count

i can agree with this... spent £30 going 147miles last night in the new car

That's the way to do it!

oh and taking it to 8,200rpm is nice

think im in love

More than double the tractor's red-line
