Hi. Thank you for admitting me to the forum. I have a 2009 Fabia2 1.9tdi which has been a real eye-opener as my first Skoda. It had been sitting in a London street doing practically nothing for three years, until I bought it for peanuts fourteen months ago. New cam belt, full service, new tyres, and here I am just coming up to 20K miles later. Total mileage is 103,000 and it's sweet as a nut (so far). I'm so impressed by the build quality. Most of my journeys are three to four hours each way. It just gets on with it.

Hi and welcome to Briskoda @JamesWilson46 👏

Cracking engines those 1.9TDi's. Almost bulletproof and pretty strong and looked after properly they'll go on and on. I had one in my MkI Fabia but remapped to 154bhp which made for fun 😊

That's an interesting idea 😄
