Full Review

I had purchased a Fabia Ambiente Petrol recently. According to me its superb. Recently Skoda has reduced their price by a considerable amount. Now the difference in price of Swift Dzire ZXi and Fabia Ambiente Petrol is only 30 thousand. I have also a Mitsubishi Lancer but the feel of this car is just amazing. Its worth paying that extra amount. Truly you feel special while driving this car. The dual tone dashboard has increased the beauty of the car but the stereo system could have been much better. Safety features are also extremely good. I had taken test drive of Swift Dezire, Verna, Palio Style, Accent, UVA, Ford Fiesta but this is the best in comfort, features, space and the pleasure that you derive while driving. The boot space is fairly big enough with 300 litres capacity. AC gets chilled out in no time and you will not feel from inside that you are driving at a speed of 125 kms until you check your speedo-meter. I am not aware what will it be in the long run but as of now I am enjoying every bit of it...

Hi ! everybody. I just came from Banglore. I had been to Banglore from Pune ( 850 Kms )in just 12 hrs thru my flying machine called FABIA ! and on return it took almost same time. At a speed of 100-120 km P/h there was no any vibrations observed and breaking is excelent. It was a good decission to go for Fabia what I will say.
