2000 Skoda Felicia GLX 1.9 diesel
Summary:
Refined VW Golf
Faults:
Nothing so far.
General Comments:
This car is more than I expected. Not a fancy racer, but a very comfortable, reliable and economic car.
It is very pleasant to drive and easy to park, thanks to power steering.
Five speed manual transmission is a mix of German and French style; very precise, but still very smooth.
The 1.9 diesel engine has VW origin and it is the SDI type. Fuel consumption is 5 to 7 l/100 km. Firmness is very good. Acceleration is satisfactory for a classic diesel engine and with a little skill you can see lot of BIG names in your mirror. Excellent value for the money.
ABS brakes deficiency divide this car from perfect in its class.
Maintenance - use good oil and do not spare with filters and this diesel will be your faithful servant for a long time.
Would you buy another car from this manufacturer? Yes
