I remember when working at the dealers we had a Fabia 2.0 petrol delivered.

 

It had that big whacky lump from the Octavia. It went well despite the weight. Havent seen one since !

 

Anyone one here got one?

 

Seen lots for sale over the past few years.

thinking of slaying some Mustangs?

There a few on Autotrader including a nice yellow one.

Oddly there are more of the odd looking saloons than the 2.0 so it is quite rare

how about a 2.0 Saloon?

 

 

I think the reason the 2.0 is rare is the 1.4 16V wasnt too far from it in terms of performance but being a 1.4, alot more economical.

Found a 2.0 estate on Fleabay - I was just impressed at the time at such a big lump in a small hole.

 

It was about that time when I came back off a training course and found that the apprentice had taken the head off a 1.4mpi - looking in the book at the time It said that the head must be replaced and not machined - How wrong were they. I am convinced you could take a centimeter off those heads  (maybe a slight exaggeration but I did do an estelle  ONCE that had been skimmed 7 times  previously so you live and learn or the time that the service receptionist booked in a Felicia pick up for a time chain- he handed me the parts for the job - No sump gasket - No tensioners how surprised was I when I stripped it down finding it was interference fit.

 

Ahh the good old days !

You might never see one, they go 'real quick'
