Skoda Fabia (2000 - 2007)
1.4 8v
awful
So many niggles where do i start : how about mpg dealer states 30.2 actual 25 out of a 1.4 unreal accelleration is zero faster on a pushbike handling shocking trim very plastic dull grey cheap looking why oh why can you not open the boot from the outside you have to open the drivers door then lift a lever to open the boot then a slight breeze or shutting the door again locks the boot again only way to open the boot is take a friend with you so they can stand there when you release the catch otherwise you will look stupid going from the drivers door to the boot 20 times before you get lucky and the boot stays unlocked. The trim level is poor i have lost count how many passengers have commented on the lack of any electrical equipment there is from electric windows etc. All in all a poor car suited to someone who has lots of money for petrol but no aspirations of what makes a normal standard of car i have experienced better everything in cars years older than this. This car does not like cold mornings refuses to clear windows or heat the interior for at least 20 mins then does not like starting when the engine has warmed up you have to have your foot flat on the floor to get it to start when warmed up which makes everyone look at you like you are a boy racer please do not buy this car 03model is expensive to run with expensive road tax and r****** fuel economy unreliable and unpleasant to sit in and drive
