Fabia Buying help

Hi,

I own a Octavia myself and a friend is looking into getting a Fabia so I thought I'd see if you have any advice for me.

The two ones she has her eyes on are:

She really wants this one but it all depends on if she can get a loan to cover it:

If not she has her eyes on:

We're based in Sheffield and can travel, but not too far away. Budget is below 1.5k, or 2k based on a loan.

What would you say about these, anything to look for, are they the price you would reccommend for what they are?

All help is appricated, thanks.
