I am lucky enough to own one of the new Fabias. Great car: compact, practical and cheap on fuel. I have a 1.4L version. If you want some photos of the new look Fabia for the site then I have some of the inside and out, but not of the engine.

Supprised there is no preview of the new Fabia on the site though.

And you thought the MY08 Impreza was ugly… check that roomster thing out. Its even worse than a Ssanyong

Myke – FYI the Roomster may have Caddy styling cues but it shares nothing with the Caddy.

Roomster has Golf Mk IV and Fabia II underpinnings.

Caddy has Golf V and leaf springs (Commercial) underpinnings.

The Roomster’s back windows make it seem like a VW CaddyLife.

^ True dat!

The Fabia and Octavia look okay,
Veedub say that the Skoda is there version of a korean company. I’m guessing it would be much better then the korean equivalents!

Errr… you’ve posted a picture of the old Fabia.

The new Fabia looks like a Suzuki Swift. Also, the rumour is that Skoda will launch with the three year old Octavia and new (and very strange looking) Roomster.
