I bought a 2006 Skoda Fabia 1.4TDi estate over the Christmas break. This car is based on the VW chassis used in the Polo and others (so a size smaller than the Golf).

It has an instant and average mpg display which is of course a very useful tool.

First tank, in cold snowy conditions here in the UK was 60mpg average (50mpgUS).

I'm now getting an indicated 72mpg (60mpgUS) on my commute- I'm looking forward to improving this with a few aero mods!

Anyone else here running this car?
