2008 Skoda Fabia Classic 1.3

Summary:

Small reliable rock with big-car ride and comfort

Faults:

Nothing yet. Little things such as blown headlights, minor rattling coming from the underbody, and some interior plastic paneling that likes to complain if you hit rough terrain.

General Comments:

Good solid feel. Precise and easy steering, excellent roominess for adults inside, powerful engine for its size. Excellent visibility comparable to older Volvos.

Great stereo system, easy-to-reach controls and simplicity overall. Great air conditioning system with a thermostat, and the audio system regulates the volume level based on interior noise levels.

Feels safe and smooth, despite the 3-cylinder engine, which sounds like a muffled Citröen 3CV in first and second gear.

Would you buy another car from this manufacturer? Yes
