What power, 86 or 105ps?

 

Monte Carlo Tech not launched until 2013 i believe. 

Because they were too expensive as just Monte Carlo and not selling well.

 

Be sure the 1.2 PS is the correct power as advertised as some are mis-sold / advertised.

After this there were estates and then the Black / White editions that need not be Black or White.

I have put reg into gov site to enquire about road tax and it comes up there as the power on the car ...is there any other way i can check ...that im being sold the correct power train advertised 

[Lloydy11]

So the car i am buying wil definatley not be a monte carlo tech yhen 

[Lloydy11]

The link you posted does not work unfortunatly

[Ootohere]

Almost certainly not a Monte Carlo Tech unless pre-production / Media car and slipped through the net.

 

If a Mod moves this to the Fabia Mk2 section there will be Monte Carlo owners and those in the know.

Plenty threads from 2012 / 2013 on the subject and since in that section.

 

PS

Link works now.  But so does a Google.

A 1.2 TSI 86 ps should show the C02 g/km as 121

& a 105ps as 124

if checking the vehicle details on the DVLA checker.

[Lloydy11]

Its a 124 c02 g/km 

Thanks for all your help and info Offski

outer ones are drls there may be a button next to the fuses if you pull the panel under the dash you'll see it.

 

with bluetooth hold the set up button on the phone option then it should say versions then if it has bluetooth there should be a bluetooth address there.
