SKODA IS KNOWN FOR ITS VALUE FOR MONEY PRODUCTS WORLDWIDE AND THAT IS REASON IT IS  SUCESSFUL, BUT SKODA HAS GOT IT WRONG IN INDIA.ONLY IF FABIA IS PRICEDWITHIN 5-6 LAKHS BRACKET(ON ROAD PRICE),SKODA WILL BE ABLE TO SELL DECENT NOS.FABIA DOES'NT EVEN JUSTIFIES IT'S PRICE BECAUSE IT IS UNDERPOWRED AND NOISY.THE SKODA RELIABLITY IS ALWAYS THERE BUT 8 LAKHS FOR A HATCHBACK IS TOO MUCH.WHEN  YOU CAN BUY THE MORE POWERFULL AND EQUALLY FULE EFFICIENT  VERNA  DIESEL FOR THE SAME PRICE,EVEN A MILLIONER WOULD NOT BE INTRESTED IN BUYING A FABIA IN INDIA, HE WOULD RATHER BUY A SWIFT DIESEL AND SPEND TWO LAKHS ON ALLOYS AND MUSIC.SO 8 LAKHS FOR A SKODA HATCH IS NOT JUSTIFIED.I AM SURE THAT THE INDIAN CUSTOMERS WOULD PROVE THEY ARE MORE CLEVER AND PROVE SKODA THAT THEY CANNOT SELL ANYTHING WITH A SKODA BADGE.

    Not Only the SKODA All Car Manufacturer are Taking undo advantage of the Indian Customer.
    Either this car Models are Difective/Old or if the model is comparively new then the Price are too High.
    As I know this Skoda Models(Indian) are quite Old.

    u r damm right THEY CANNOT SELL ANYTHING WITH A SKODA BADGE,as the car is over priced, engine's not powerfull and noisy too.i hope the co. will do something about that.

    serves them right - you don see any fabia on roads. Should be a lesson for these companies - maruti pricing is market pricing in india. Same reason why getz and Verna from Hyundai are flops.
