Skoda Fabia Estate review - What Car?

[@davidbatley9386]

why are all thee reviews the bloody same i want to see them putting sofas, wardrobes and loads of shit for the tip into an estate that's why you buy one

[@donaldellis3609]

Not a happy bunny? You need a two ton pick up.

[@timfuller6206]

I have the best small estate ever. 1.2turbo an 7 speed auto clutch. Keep looking at other cars but they never match up, go figure

[@thestalicho]

Just bought a 2019 Monte Carlo version 6 speed g/box 110ps 200Nm. engine smooth and powerful. No central rear seat headrest though (optional) but child seat fittings std.

[@MrDan957]

Looks s good reliable and well built car, love that colour also

I have owned for 1 & 1/2 years the previous Fabia 2 105tdi Elegance estate. Based in SW France we have been to Germany twice, Brittany & Spain, most of my driving is fast country roads & autoroute, I average 55mpg. The sport suspension / seats / 16" wheels do give a firm ride, but very precise handling. Carrying bicycles or all the stuff we take to our boat inc dinghy & outboard, no problem. Fashion statement this car is not, it's a family swiss army knife of a car. I have had coupe's & hot hatches in my younger days, nowadays I don't give a monkeys what you see as I drive by. Those that have experienced modern Skoda's see tutonic German engineering without paying for badge snobbery.

[@SportProgramming]

True! Skoda all the way for keeping it real.

[@martin4458]

I've a Fabia 3 1.4tdi 90bhp and I can get 65mpg.

[@jamesgordon8063]

I wonder why VW don't offer a Polo Estate, considering SEAT and ŠKODA offer estate variants of their superminis

[@AlLuiPigus]

Because Seat and Skoda do 😅

[@silvanigra]

I'm looking to buy this as a family car (family with 2 kids, one teen and one primary school kid), would it suit that purpose?

[@user-itschad1954]

Yes without a doubt.

[@repo4]

I'd go for the Rapid. It's bigger.

[@johnrose2793]

Watch out...Skoda seem to have changed the rear seat base on the Series 3 estate, so now you can't fold the seat base forward to allow the rear seat backs to fold forward flat enough to give a near horizontal surface.

[@donaldellis3609]

Very good small estate car 👍

[@lindsaymann5383]

I wish the estate version had been NCAP safety tested. I know they mentioned the hatchback version had. Does anyone know about how the tests might compare?

[@donkehmcdonkey3703]

I'd say near identical, the only real difference is a slightly longer/boxier rear end, the rest is exactly the same, probably why they didnt bother/have to get a new test. If anything the longer body increases rear end protection with a marginally larger crumple zone.

[@peterklemenc3814]

Would you mind doing the new honda jazz review?

[@keithisaacs6092]

The skoda is no longer a cheap car its only ever been cheap in price after all your getting a Vw built car not the prettiest of cars if you want that buy a clio it will look nice on your drive personally I would would rather have guality over a pretty grill

[@user-itschad1954]

Learn proper English and get to spell correctly.

[@martin4458]

Buy a Clio? Skoda Fabia looks better than a Clio.

[@doctordoctor5402]

not VW built, made by Skoda in Mlada Boleslav!!!!

[@irfanrashid1453]

I like it

[@Kayshots]

Combi* not estate

[@jep1912]

Oh what joy, no James Bachelor.

[@johngathard4717]

Must agree, his reports do grate with me, has no credibility in my mind since I saw a video of him as a passenger in a Caterham, when he seemed about ready to burst into tears when he experienced the performance of the car.

[@thiagolima7344]

Vw skoda

[@g00dfeeling]

Could it be more boring

[@mariolosberg4257]

Soooo ugly design.. even Dacia logan look's better than this ugly car.. lol..

[@mariolosberg4257]

***** i guess that you actually live in cage.. lol.. troll..!

[@gaspermedved5803]

Mario Losberg no

[@dmer-zy3rb]

then go ahead and drive a dacia. dacias are nothing more than rebranded old cars that were "okay" at best 20 years ago.

[@gaspermedved5803]

Yea just cheap ass fucking renaults

[@dmer-zy3rb]

haha i wouldnt have a problem buying a rebranded mercedes w202 with modern engine - thats a great car and very durable. but not that dacia shit.
