1994 Skoda Favorit Lxi Plus review from UK and Ireland
"Cheap to buy, run and service. Build quality and reliability much much better than the rumours!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Rear dampers replaced at 95,000 miles.
Rear wash-wipe doesn't spray water.
General comments?
Bodywork is astonishingly immaculate for a 7 year old car that has done near 100,000 miles!
Interior has worn very well, no signs of carpet or seat fabric wear, dashboard and fitments need occasional tightening up but build is much better than folklore suggests!
Handling is better that one would imagine, seems to grip well round corners and in the wet which is quite surprising.
Steering is also quite precise but bangs and knocks a bit, which I'm told is normal.
Heater gets warm quickly and adjustment is good.
