1995 Skoda Favorit LXie review from UK and Ireland
"A cheap runaround; sounds like a dump truck"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Rear Wheel Bearing.
Engine Manifold came loose.
Brake Fluid leak.
Radiator blew.
Starter died.
General comments?
Having next to no money and a baby on the way, this was about the cheapest 5 door car we could find. It has been a point A to B car well, though for the amount I drive it (not often), it has started to fall apart too quickly. Decent fuel economy is nice. Worst thing perhaps about the car is the loud engine. It sounds like a dump truck. However despite the problems I don't regret the purchase.
