    theres nothing worse than a car with a ratty dashboard made of cheap plastics. I hate the light grey colours which go a dirty brown after a few years.

    VAG interiors are usually a nice place to be. The 206 is well :rotfl:

    I was in the garage the other day looking at cars and a bloke came in and said he was just after something cheap, he had £50 to spend.
    The salesman said he had one around the back, but it had no doors on it.
    The bloke said, well that's no good, i wont be able to get in it!!!

    I've taken a fox for for a test drive and it felt that you are perched up quite high - but not high enough for it to be useful.
    Polos always seem quite expensive for what you get?

    Hyundai i20 had a better driving position, but the salesguy was an !!!! and kept directing questions at my bf rather than me - who was spending the £.

    I know a few machanics and they all say Skoda,s are better than Vw now.

    Have to admit I am a Skoda Octavia owner, but you only have to look at how many taxi companies now have Skodas, theyre reliable,cheaper than VW and like others have said put together better...

    The Fabia is a great little car and resale values are not too bad.........
