RIP Fabia 2005 - 2024

Hi, I was kind of hopeful at first but it appears to be eaten up too badly, unfortunately I think it’ll end up in copart by the end of the year

Unfortunately, I think it’s going to end up in copart before the end of year, looks like the tunnel reinforcements eaten through aswell, and it appears the seat belts are bolted through this which would be a major fail point, it’s like this on both sides aswell 😞

It’s been a very reliable workhorse but looking around they have increased abit in value if I were to buy another one, I like that you can still get cheap parts for the old skodas, I have a Mitsubishi that’s the same year and it’s getting difficult to find parts

Hi, outer sill is still on, it seems that there were a lot of layers which does show how well they were made, it’s not really a treasure, I do like the car, it never had any major problems, I did only pay £800 for the fabia and have driven it around for 5 years

Hi everyone, I have a 2005 vrs the sills or lack thereof don’t have a lot of life left in them, has anyone had any seen or had any success fixing a fabia in this state? Is the car worth saving, cheers

Thanks for the reply, I’ll have a look over there, cheers

Hi & thank you!

I might need some true talent to salvage this

Hi, it’s a fabia 1.9tdi, it’s @164k miles. I’m in the UK, I’ve had the car for 5 years and the engine and the bodywork are great but I think the sills (what’s left of them) are living on borrowed time

Hi everyone, although everything can be saved is it worth saving my 2005 asz vrs?

Too far gone?
