Howdy,

 

I'm Paul, now the proud owner of a new 1.2Tsi Fabia.  Distinctly sensible choice after having a 3.0ltr Jag XF for the last 3 years but finding the Fabia is far less of a step down than I feared.  This changing gear lark is a bit tedious but the CarPlay gizmo is very cool and I wish other manufacturers would learn from the Skoda and fit so many little cubby holes :)

Hi

 

A bit of a step down down but I think your fuel consumption may have slightly increased also.

The Jag was surprisingly good - 42-45 mpg NOT being driven for economy - mind you an 8 speed box that meant Motorway speeds were well under 2,000rpm didn't hurt !

 

I got the Fabia on the new PCP deal at 139 deposit and 139 per month so I swapped my car and got the wife a mini for less than the Jag was costing.  Its quiet, pretty nippy and is more practical than the Jag being a hatchback.
