I'm finally ready to get my used Fabia. I plan on checking out these 3 and going with the best value deal regards condition/milage/warranty etc.

Any thoughts on these 3?

Skoda Fabia 1.4 16V COMFORT 5dr NCT 04/09 (2001) - ? 3,500 - Used Cars on Carzone.ie - New & Used Cars in Ireland

Skoda Fabia 1.4 16V AMBIENTE (2000) - ? 2,995 - Used Cars on Carzone.ie - New & Used Cars in Ireland

Skoda Fabia 1.4 16V AMBIENTE 100BHP (2000) - ? 2,950 - Used Cars on Carzone.ie - New & Used Cars in Ireland

I'm not sure if I should settle for the 68bhp or pay the extra €200 insurance on the 100bhp?

Are all of these metallic paint? I find it hard to tell?

Any advice appreciated!

I'd like to narrow it down to 2 or put them in preference order so I can then bring a mechanic to check out what seems to be the best one.

Can't afford to do that for all 3.

go for 100bhp

Go for the 100bhp! €200 is nothing in terms of insurance and I doubt the 100bhp 16valver uses any more fuel than the ancient 1.4mpi.

Edit - just noticed they're all 16 valve cars you are looking at....i'd still go for the 100bhp

All three of them look in good nick,why is the first one more expensive ?.I don't like their green colour though.

The first one doesn't need its NCT (like MOT) until next April, the other 2 are due in september.

The second one looks like a Classic model - basic spec, as it has Classic seats.If the wing mirrors are unpainted and it has no side rubbing strips, I'd avoid it, as it sounds as if the seller is trying to sell a base model as a more upmarket trim one.
