2000 Skoda Felicia LXi review from Romania
"Very good car"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Gearbox - Blocked in the 5th gear, still able to get back home, changed the ball-bearing of the 5th gear (around 30e) and everything back to normal (at 60.000km).
Alternator - 78.000km.
Various mechanical parts - very bad roads (I'm from Romania)
General comments?
Sturdy, decent looking car, had some problems but never left me on the side of the road. Very low prices at spare parts (as low as locally made cars) and fully available on demand at almost every small (garage type) spare parts shop here in Romania. Low ground clearance, must be carefull on bad roads. Not for showing off, doesn't like too much reving. Good car, I trust it, don't know how many 8year old cars can be like her.
