Hey hello hoi
Bought my first Skoda, and its a station/combi/estate.
In 2009 we bought daihatsu cuore from the dealer.
We had it untill 3 months ago and it had +-360.000km on it.
Now we have a little me, 12 weeks old son.
So the cuore has not alot of space within the car.
Time for a new car.
We spend around 2 months searching for a new car.
Our top 5 cars;
Skoda fabia mk1 or mk2 5door hatchback
Opel astra 2008/2012 5door hatchback
Mitsubishi colt 2008/2012 5door hatchback
Ford fiesta 2008/2012 5door
Honda jazz 2008/2012 5door
They needed to have 5 option to be buyable.
130.000km or less
€4500 or less
Airconditioning
Cruisecontrol
Isofix for the babyseats
My wifey found me a colt at this car occasions shop.
After looking at it, it was a little more than our budget had to offer.
It was on a sunday so we looked around to soo other cars and found this fabia combi.
For €3800, 99.745km, cruisectrl, Airconditioning and isofix.
At first i thought, daimnnn am i at this part of life that i am buying a combi/station/estate?
After first testdrive, i felt good about the 1.4 acceleration.
But also having in mind that a am 203cm tall and my knee was right in between of the radio and streringwheel.
Not a good thing to have a painfull knee while riding..
Second testdrive i found out the setup of the steringwheel and driverseat could be changed. What a lifesaver, what a space!!
So we wanted to buy thos 2007 skoda fabia combi.
Im not a good nagotiator so that part was for my wifey!
Why this forum?
I am member to learn more about this car and how i can improve the car and handling.
Hope to learn alot!
