Had my Fabia in service this morning and guess what I saw on their forecourt?

WA51 reg SILVER RS Octavia hatchback - 24000 miles 'ish. Only 16" alloys, so I think could be an import. Car looked really nice and the price,

Oh, come on.

Do it!

Running costs aren't that bad!

Gotta go now and give the weekly

If you can afford the insurance then Octvia running costs are very good IMHO

16 August, 200322 yr

Yes, but that p/x looks awful!

16 August, 200322 yr

Ueughhh! It;s Silver!

And it's only got 16" wheels!

Don't let me put you off

Check out the review of the Fabia vRS in this months Diesel Car, thats where my money would go, not an Octy vRS.

Nice thoughts - I've actually got my Dad quite interested in it, which is nice. Maybe the Accord won't be around for much longer...?

I'm going to bide my time for the Fabia vRS first, but as Matt says, all I need is a re-map and some decent brakes (perhaps change 100% when discs need changing) and my car would already be up to vRS standards... cheaper too. :rolleyes:

Generally, i dont like to be one of those people to open up another topic that has been exhausted time and time again, but after extensive research, i really am struggling to find a forum response that matches fully with my issue. I brought my 1.2 tsi 2016 CJZD Rapid earlier this year. As soon as I picked up the car, i noticed the issue, but the garage i purchased it from had wiped their hands clean. Since then, i have been trying to research and diagnose the issue without throwing the parts c

Correct gearbox oil for Fabia 2 HTP 70 (2007) ?

Spiffer · 1 hour ago1 hr

I wonder if someone can help me identify the correct OEM product number for a gearbox oil change I am planning. The car is 19 years old and just passed the 50k mile mark and I thought it would be prudent to change the oil when I service it this summer. The trouble I am having is getting any reliable information from online purveyors of oil. I would like to buy original VAG oil. Mine is a 5 speed manual gearbox.

Afternoon all. Early this year, i made the plunge. I moved across to Skoda from VW. Perhaps they are all the same or perhaps im just getting older and actually, having a decent car with a few less gadgets and a more affordable price tag is more important to me. Anyway, hi all.
