Hi Dave and welcome, it would be interesting to hear your comparisons between the two when you have had it a while.

Hi Minsy, thank you good to be here. First impressions are the Fabia is very comfy and has a massive boot compared to the Yaris excel and also the 12v battery doesn’t go flat after two or three days of not driving her 😁

I have thought that the suspension on my Octavia seems a bit harsh and, having searched the forum, it seems that I’m not alone. My car is an ‘Elegance’ with 17” rims and 225/45x17 tyres and the beam axle rear suspension.

However, it looks like the majority of 17” tyres that are available have a load rating of 94, as are the ones on my car. I think this could be contributing to the probl

Rust around fuel filler door

Trubrit · 7 October, 20187 yr

A few months ago, I posted here about rust appearing on the panel around the fuel filler area on my car. Upon closer inspection, this rust had started on the rear side of the panel and penetrated through to the outside. The car is a 2014 Citigo SE with only 20k miles showing. After a lot of back and forth conversations with Skoda, they finally inspected the car in July 2018 and agreed it was a manufacturing defect. The car was taken to an approved body shop where it remained for over a month

Hello everyone! I bought my first car a few months ago, and I have been loving it! The car starts and it doesn't beep at me and there isn't any systems I want to turn off every time I start the engine and the controls are all physical buttons and its a small car but it doesn't feel small when when inside. Originally I planned to keep the car in great condition and keep it for as long as possible, especially with the current trend of crossovers and SUVs meaning bigger and bigger cars are on th
