Go for the FSI. More power (115hp), better consumption and slick response. Makes Lady Octavia even sexier in motion and sound!..

Have a look at this thread for potential issues with FSI lumps. http://www.briskoda.net/forums/t2377...-or-16fsi.html
You'll need to use 98 RON (e.g. Shell Optimax) to get the best out of it.

I heard that the FSI has a bad response and the consuption is bigger .In some magazines i read that the 1.6 MPI is a better engine and less sofisticated.I am confused,on the paper the engine specs are better but on the road i heard it doesn`t deliver that power and torque :ashamed

The acceleration will depend on many factors, not just the torque...your best option is to actually try both cars, then decide which one you think drives better...
