2001 Skoda Fabia Classic review from Germany
"Definitely the better Volkswagen! It's cheaper than the original and offers the better value"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
The radiator's washer broke at about 20,000 km which almost lead to a total desaster because the engine was running out of cooling liquid and the mechanics didn't find the flaw.
General comments?
On the one hand, the car is really cute and trusty.
On the other hand the maintenance exceeds all limits!
