The Mk2 Fabia was at one time Skoda UK's top selling model.

Maybe the Mk3 Fabia will get to be top seller once Skoda CZ do a Warm or Hot hatch and estate, maybe if they get to use the new 1.5 TSI / 150ps engine that could be a possibility. 

After all Skoda seem to think the vRS or Sportline models boost Octavia sales in the UK.

The vRS accounting for 20% of Octavia sales in the UK.

 

Rapid and Rapid Spaceback sales look rather poor, but then that might just be an indication that just adding 'Sporty looks' do not really have customers fooled.

It does seem to help sell Fabia 'Monte Carlo' that are more about show than go though. 

A pity that Skoda CZ do not give a nod to the success in Rallying of Fabia R5's that use a Mk3 Body Shell

and the Heritage in Motorsport of Skoda and have a Fabia that has some go, handling and stopping available to buy in Skoda Dealership showrooms.

Totally agree.

I seem to think they don't want to compete with the VW badge?
