2005 Skoda Fabia review from UK and Ireland
"Unreliable and a disappointment"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
The catalytic converter has gone.
This is so rare that a replacement part cannot be priced in Dublin at the moment.
General comments?
I now consider the car to be unreliable as everyone in the motor trade that I've spoken to (including Skoda personnel) have told me that this shouldn't happen with such low mileage.
