We are part exchanging our 2004 fabia estate 1.2 classic for a 2009 fabia 2 estate 1.4 16v later today and I am wondering whether we should hold onto the spare wheel from the old given that the new one doesn't have a spare.

The question is - will this fit?

It will fit in terms of bolt pattern

Would imagine your 2004 car will have 14" steel rims and tyres. The Fabia 2 should have 15" with 195/55 R15 tyres and depending when it was built in 09 it might have a spare already. If not I would get the correct spare as it's the same size as the wheels fitted. The dealer who sold my lad his 09 59 Fabia 1, supplied a new spare plus tool kit for an extra £100.
