The Skoda Fabia is tremendous value for money
It’s remarkably practical for such a small car and very well built
The interior fit and finish is very good indeed
The VW Polo is the sister car to the Fabia, but is more expensive - and more desirable
The driving experience is more about comfort than thrills, but it is a very capable car

It’s great fun to drive, and there’s plenty of scope to customise it
It’s not the biggest inside though, but buyers love its retro styling
