2002 Skoda Fabia Comfort review from UK and Ireland
"It quietly gets on with it's job reliably, but without winning any prizes"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Brakes sticking in cold weather for the last three years, with brake cleaning needed at every service after year one.
Rear washer stopped functioning during year three due to a pressure problem.
Very occasional weirdness with operation of the electric windows - complete failure to function, or buttons operating incorrect windows.
Front roll bar had to be replaced at fourth annual service.
General comments?
I like this car. It's has good all-round performance and generally dependable. No serious complaints with the car or the dealerships.
A little too much work has been required at annual services after year one for my liking, with each service coming in around the 200GBP mark.
