Picked up my MC this morning and I have to say I'm very pleased. I hadn't driven the model before but had driven the 105 CR engine in an elegance and had driven a VRS so was pretty confident I knew what to expect.

Only done 30 or so miles since picking it up, but so far everything seems great. No faster driving and the MPG is north of 50 which is encouraging. All the options specified turned up and I am very pleased I went with the Amunsden nav (got the + unit btw), it makes the dash look nicer, iPod and phone are a breeze to use with touch screen scrolling through phone book and play lists. The Maxidot is also an excellent option (came free with the BT/Nav combo) and is great to have nav directions/audio source/phone commands on the dash without having to look down.

A MFSW would have been perfect but alas Skoda do not offer it as an option. Ho Hum.

Seats are very comfy, bum warmers are nice but not needed today, and I find the suspecsion sporty enough but not bone shakingly hard. Looking forward to getting it on my commute to see what I can get economy wise, will change the MC on fuelly from the alfa and add my results to the thread. Not working until monday though so will have to see what happens over the weekend.

One very happy Fabia owner

Shark fin:

Nav - well worth £350 imho

Maxidot functionality is superb. Free with Nav/Bluetooth but I would happily pay the £120 it costs as an option

Another Red Monte. Looks great and I'm liking the Amundsen unit

nice matey, im starting to wish id got the satnav now :(

must admit the sound from the installed unit is very very good but i just like the look of yours more

Yeah I know, not the most original colour but I think it looks good.

I almost went for the anthracite grey but a) I thought it would hide the piano black trim and it cost an extra £320 so I went with the red

nice motor which tdi u go for the 75 or 105

The 105

The 105

nice enjoy

Very nice monte :p and they look very good in red :p

I love my 105CR, plenty of poke and amazingly economical. Wish I had gone for Maxidot too as I don't like having an LCD fuel gauge and can't tell what temperature the car is running at.

A great looking car (and fun to drive) Best colour and engine choice in my biased opinion

Enjoy

Looks great my friend. Enjoy!

Love the Amunsden sat nav unit, as you said, it really makes use of the space. Bet at night it looks ace too with the air con display lit up Enjoy
