Decided we needed a new car, after losing 3 out of 4 of our dogs in the last 18 months no longer need a massive car, cosidered a vRS hatch but with the options it was knocking on the door of 24k even with the dtd discount, the fabia lse was therefore my default choice but then saw the Seat equivalent, the Ibiza which in comparison is a bit of a bargain if you like gadge, so ordered today for March! delivery,

Managed to get a good deal at a smidge under £16k. Will be running the Octy untill then which could appear in a for sale advert on here around mid feb, 1 owner 43k miles (will rise) 1.4 elegance estate with extras. MOT is until April, will probably benefit from a couple of tyres and last service with longlife oil was april 2017 so will need a service by then, px value agreed for March as it stands is £4600, anyone interested drop me a pm.

Welcome to the dark side.

I'm sure you'll not find it much different to drive than all the other cars you've had.

Have to say I was impressed by the 1l 3 pot on the test drive, felt every bit as good as the 1.4 it is replacing apart from the pick up in 2nd gear from (very) low speed.
