Thinking of buying a used Skoda Fabia?

The style of the car

The Skoda Fabia is available in two body styles, a five-door hatch and a five-door estate. The hatch is roomy, but the versatile estate has all the space you could need at a small-car price.

How it drives

The Fabia is a great all rounder. It’s good to drive and, thanks to its comfortable suspension, is relaxing as well. The Fabia’s light steering and small size means it’s easy to park and manoeuvre around town, while on faster roads it can be a lot of fun. At speed you won’t notice the wind or road noise you’d expect to hear in other small cars.

The interior

Even in hatchback form, the Fabia’s boot is a little larger than its rivals’, but the estate version is vast considering the overall size of the car. Both versions have seating for five adults, and while all Fabias are great value and well equipped, the SE trim level is probably the best compromise between cost and kit.

Running costs and reliability

The Skoda Fabia is good value when new and even better value when bought as a used car. With a range of small, efficient petrol engines, the Fabia’s fuel costs will be low, as will insurance and tax. Aside from the usual wear and tear costs, maintenance won’t be a lot either. The Fabia has a good record for reliability and in the 2019 JD Power UK Dependability study Skoda was the second highest ranked car maker. This shows that not only are the cars reliable, but customers are happy with them. The Fabia also achieved the full five stars in the Euro NCAP crash test.

Certain specifications fall into insurance group 1 keeping your car insurance premiums affordable, find out which.

How it compares with similar cars

The Fabia sits between the Citigo, Skoda’s smallest car, and the Octavia, its family hatch. The Fabia is less expensive to buy than the Volkswagen Polo, and bigger and more practical than a Ford Fiesta. The Fabia has picked up awards from the likes of What Car magazine thanks to its clever design and reasonable pricing.
