Greetings from Czech Republic! This is a Scotty type of car :) Extremely cheap to run and extremely reliable. The Czech designed and made 1.3 motor can do 1mil no problem. Unfortunately, now we get Škoda cars only with VW motors which more or less suck.

[@pavelgrulich2989]

paulparoma Well it may have been the VW upgraded Favorit, since there was a minor facelift in 1991 when VW bought Škoda, the original czech/czechoslovak Favorits had asymetrical front mask and no round Škoda logo on the back. Felicia is based on the 1993 Favorit’s facelift, since almost the entire interior shares the same design, though rounded in some places. This can be visible mainly on the lower part of the console and door interior. Exteriorwise, Felicia is a rouded Favorit, and the 1.3 liter engine is the same Favorit used, only varying in power (40-50kw, carb/SPI/MPI). This particular engine type is an upgraded version of the engine from 1960’s used in 1000MB, 100, 110 and 742 models. It was upgraded from 1L to 1.4L when it was supplied to Fabia with 1.4MPI configuration. Then the engine was discotinued. Škoda still develops engines, but they are now VW branded. They are produced in Vrchlabí, where Felicia’s were also produced (I do also own one, but that particular one was made in Mladá Boleslav).

[@agriperma]

I also visited, people were very friendly, and so much history packed in such a small Island. my main purpose of my trips was to visit the ruins. One thing that stood out about the culture there, is how people preserve things, you can still see "graffiti" on the walls from Roman occupation, or even earlier, the public buses are really old, but look like new vehicles built as retro. people in general seem to take care of things , not the "disposable" society you see in the West.

Hey Scotty , I had a Skoda Felicia with same engine , these are so well made I drove with a blown head gasket for over 1 year , all I did each day before work was top up the coolant and the thing kept going. One day the plastic oil cap came off the engine due to excess pressure , but the thing kept on running , in the end I sold it for £100 to a mechanic and I'm sure it's still running today lol 😂 not bad for a 25 year old Czech car.

[@tonchie23]

My dad owns a Skoda Felicia 1.3 from 1997. He's 5th or 6th owner and every owner was treating that car without respect and it is still running. Due to being run on LPG the engine blew out completely, but managed to find new engine and mechanic to replace it, all for 300 euros :D

Thanks Scotty. In the early 80s here in Canada, friends of ours with a motorcycle shop picked up a license to sell Skodas. If you called it a "dealership" people would laugh at you. The Skoda 120s that came here first had a rear-engine and were barely able to "get out of their own way." I was driving a VW Bug back then so that's saying something. My buddy's dad got rid of them after a few years because they were taking up too much space and he was always fixing them.

[@Marco-iy7lt]

I've had three Skoda Octavias, all of them as fleet vehicles in different specifications over the last past year. All of them very good cars, reliable, safe, good build quality. The best thing about them is that they use the best of tried and test parts of the VW Group and utilise them into their own vehicles. I would definitely recommend them to anyone and I hope that one day that the US Market will recognise just how good these cars are in comparison with most other vehicles already in their market place.

[@ladamurni]

You should flip the nob on the steeringwheel so it sits on the inside, it is better for safety when your steering wheel unwinds after going around corners. I see this often that it is mounted to the outside of the steering wheel instead of the inside. Try it and you won't regret. All the best.

The 1.3 MPI 50kW Škoda engine is one of the best engines ever made. I have one and it has done around 450 000 + kilometers without any issues. The only issue with Felicia is the poor rust protection.

[@Papinak2]

The rust protection wasn't that bad for a car of that era. Problem is lack of wheel arch lining which led to mud accumulation, which caused corrosion. Early Octavias had same issue that caused corrosion around the fuel cap. The infamous hatch corrosion was caused by bad design, where water got in the weld behind the plastic lining.

I would trade my car for a new Skoda Yeti in a second.. maybe. It would need to be fully optioned/loaded. Those things are tanks in build strength, but are also light & economical. Plus they get it when you take it off road.

Fully optioned just means more crap to break.

Makes sense in our part of the world where we had Suzuki vans and pick ups for our narrow roads.

I like this little pickup. Volkswagen USA made a pickup version of it's American-built Rabbit, but at that time there were cheaper competitors from Japan in the Nissan and Toyota lines, even Isuzu and Mitsubishi, and they were built as pickups from the ground up. So a converted car just had little market. Now, those Japanese pickups have bloated into big 4-door things, and I'd welcome a small pickup the size of the 1960's Datsun 520 or 620. But, it has to have a separate bed--- for comfort and safety.

Those styled-steel wheels are beautiful ! Sober and stylish at the same time.

It reminds me of a 1985 Subaru brat
