Miles on clock when bought 36k in Sep 04 and now 53k in Nov 05.

Now that I've had my 2001 used Fabia estate 1.9 sdi for over a year I report that mpg on long runs (over 100 miles) is 68 +/- 2 and on short runs (under 6 miles) it is 60 +/- 2. Acceleration is 0-60mph in around 15 sec. In other words it's all better than the sales blurb specs.

Thse figures obtained with highest possible recommended tyre pressures.

Drivers seat was very uncomfortable at first. Not enough lower back support for me and the upholstered ridge at the front edge pressed into my under-thighs restricting circulation on long journeys. Solution -

on British roads he cannot outrun me and believe me he tries.
