We have been testing out the new skoda green line fabia and normal 1.6 fabia.

These are being double shifted by drivers so yes they drive them, local mileage is 500 -550 on a £50 tank.

motorway 600 - 700 on a £50 tank.

The green line 1.2 with start stop technology gives 6% more.

picking the 1.6 up for 12k with two year unlimited mileage warranty.

i don't think a fabia would pass up here even with the estate, the 1.2 tdi is far too small and need to a 1.6 minimum up here, the taxi choice for skoda now is, the rapid, octavia and superb i think
