Anyone have experience with a car fitted with the above engine?
Reason I ask is, I am very close to purchasing my first car* and it appears that the Skoda Fabia 1.4TDI is the cheapest car to insure; even cheaper than the slower SDI variant. I have compared it to many different cars and always it comes out the cheapest in terms of insurance, even cheaper than 1.3 Corsas/Puntos etc. However, I don't want the money I save on insurance to go on expensive repairs!
My estimated mileage is approximately 18,000 a year hence why I would like a diesel, plus the fact that I have driven a petrol before but much preferred the diesel.
*I have had my license for just under a year now so insurance is now affordable, plus I have driven a company pool car for nearly a year which has made a difference to the price.
