I've been thinking of downsizing from my A4 to a Polo Gti but having looked at the Briskoda forum, I'm wondering if this is a good idea.

Apparently this engine (as used in the Fabia vrs) has been known to give problems with the oil consumption,sometimes so serious,a new engine is needed.

Is this correct?

Also what fuel consumption round town could I expect,I get around 30 in the Audi (95 octane)

Thanks in advance
