2000 Skoda Fabia Classic review from UK and Ireland
"OK for small 2nd family car, but waiting for probably inevitable faults!!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Power steering warning light came on while driving, only once, and went off again. Car is pulling to left. Unsure if this is a power steering problem. Has anyone else experienced problems with car pulling to left?
Irritating not having tailgate lock on tailgate and having to use in-car lever to open tailgate. Is there anyway tailgate can be converted so that it can be opened/locked from outside? My Classic model has central locking.
General comments?
Poor acceleration, probably due to drive by wire system. Slow to overtake.
Good build quality, solid controls, no problems. No excessive road/engine noise.
Plenty of room in the back for 2-3 adults. Dash could be improved with soft touch plastics.
Driving position fine and adjustable.
