Which one?

General consensus is capable but a little dull. Definitely an alternate choice to the usual though.

I've got a newer petrol one. It's quick. Likes oil though.

My 65 year old step mother drives one.

























She really likes it. biggrin

edit to add: she's done over 40K faultless miles in hers averaging 50+ mpg (MK1 diesel) over the last 5yrs or so with nothing other than routine servicing, rear door seals and tyres. It's 'special edition so has nice leather seats instead of the crap white cloth items in the standard car. I drove it and it was fine, not exciting but better than the average white goods hatchback.

I had a fabia 1.2 TSi with DSG gearbox as a rental car in a wonderful shade of brown.

In a car that I didn't like the look of and the specs should not appeal but all I could do was laugh whilst driving it. I had great fun in it and felt it was a good drive.

I'd sell my car tomorrow and by the vRS if I could. But looking to change cars next year so it's very high on my list.
