| Hi people I currently have an Octavia 1.6 petrol - 1999. Since I use it for towing a caravan a few times a year, and it has high mileage, it is wearing out fast - gearbox problems. I was thinking of a new Octavia 1.9 TDI - is its extra engine power enough to make changing worth while? I can't afford a car wit higher specs. Jim |

| I think you'll find the extra torque of the TDi the most impressive and useful part when towing the caravan. Welcome to Briskoda.
