Hi from Birstall, West Yorkshire

Featured Replies

New Skoda owner here, i own a 2009 Fabia 1.4 II TDI 80BHP Level 2

Only bought it 2 weeks ago and seriously impressed with how it runs, currently at 13,000 miles, im not overly impressed with claimed MPG figures, i get about a combined 50mpg and im seriously light footed

whats everyone else getting mpg wise

my day routine is 5 miles to work at 30mph at 5am, no traffic, 1pm return with a fair amount of traffic, then i usually fit in a 10-20 motorway jaunt at 70mph

Welcome :)

MPG does seem a bit low as I can get 70 MPG in a fabia 1.9....

Welcome to the site mate. Us West Yorks lot seem to be saturating the site recently!

I work in Gildersome and drive from Heckmondwike so pass through Birstall each day, also used to live half way up Hudds Road in the Barratt's estate :thumbup:

Hi Guys, im using this box and its great on my 1.4tdi

i took her out for a 60 mile jaunt last night from Birstall to Huddersfield on A62 doing a steady 30-35mph, then to Holmfirth, over the top and down to the pass and back to the M1 from Jct 36 and back up north, i hait 80mph over the pass and a steady 60-70 back up the M1 and i got a stunning 64mpg ave

best £100 ive spent and it gives it a power boost as well, no flat spots and instant throttle response
