brandoo HI Pradep,
I am extremely sorry for not having spare price list. Ihad it but not able to trace it at the moment.
I got the list from the dealer himself. I told dealer that I will not go for Fabia untill I am provided with the price list of spare parts. Dealer was very quick to provide me list of space parts. Actually he got it faxed it from Skoda office and cross checked with the list with the service station.
Spare prices are not astronomical currently, though it used to be. Example; Door of fabia will cost 8040 Rs where as Maruti Swift would cost 6800. There is a difference of 20-25 % for 70% parts for Skoda vis a vis maruti. Ford is costlier than Maruti, even mahindra long spares are very costly, costlier than Fabia.
I have one point to make.Skoda parts are of very high qulity,many parts are shared with the Laura. Many parts have Audi logo embossed on to it.
If your budget permitts, blindly go for Fabia. New Swift will cost somewhere 7.15+ OTR in Delhi, where as Fabia's top variant would cost you around 7.35-40 OTR in Delhi.
Fabia is superb car, handling, ride quality, fit and finish, very good AC, above average Stereo system.
I have one piece of advise: If you don't want to go for top variant, go for Ambience, get after market stereo, seat cover etc. Don't go by what dealer claims. U can get under body anti rust coating,teflon polish at after market places. Dealers make hell lot of money by dupng customers. Do not buy any accessory from dealer. DO NOT BUY ACCESSORIES
