Thinking of buying a low mileage Felicia with full service history as a shed. Anyone had one?

Having had the fabia, if go for a Skoda made by VW , the 1.9td engine is particularly bomb proof apparently, VW bought a Passat back off a customer with that engine that had done 500,000 miles I believe and the engine is displayed in their UK HQ

Thanks for your input Ivor It's not commonly known that before the Felicia was launched Skoda intended to launch two models, one for men and one for women. The one for men was called the Felacia, and the one for women was going to be called the Cunilingo. Of course at the time Skoda had no idea of the possible connotations for these names in the English language. When it was pointed out they realised that if a woman opted fo the model not intended for her gender there could be misinterpretation for woman saying she was up for a Felacia . Personally I've always been down for a Cunilingo.
