2005 Skoda Fabia Classic review from UK and Ireland
"Excellent mpg and build quality"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
I have had 3 Fabias:
First one, a 2000 1.9 SDI had power steering problems, washer pipe came off 3 times, other problems; got sick of taking it back.
Didn't think much of the dealers; always trying to fob you off, thinking you are as thick as they are.
Part exchanged it for a 2001 1.9 SDI estate, which was brilliant; had it 12 months, brilliant, but decided to have a change.
I decided to buy another Fabia again; always get 60+ mpg, the build quality is excellent; faultless.
