I would personally avoid the 1.6 and go for the 2.0tdi. They are as flat as a pancake to drive.

Using OBDeleven app,  I've successfully coded in remove seat belt warning, 40 secs coming home lights BUT ASR off with 5 sec press of ESP button 🙂 was not supported on my ABS system....

If I sell the Edition 30 I'm going to get a winter beater Fabia VRS and strip it out for a track day car. Carry my bike and tools about in it.

Good move in terms of handling  :happy2:  Wide track goodness.  Does it have the DCC dampers?  Should do if it's a GT diesel.

Decided to buy a MK6 TDI 140 for the missus off the back of this.  They drive very well indeed.  Hopefully pick it up tomorrow providing nothing ominous shows up on a VCDS scan.

Quite interested in doing some diesel mods.  So much nicer to drive around town than my ED30.  It actually has some torque below 2000rpm  :grin:
