I pick mine up tomorrow..never even test drove it !

Make sure the heaters put out the air temp desired.....not 1000 degrees when set to 18 etc. Front tyre wear, rattling gearknob, leaking rear door carriers (water will be sat on top of the seal when you open the door and the underside of the door card will be wet if they are leaking), clunking front suspension over bumps and uneven surfaces and failed A/C.

That's all I can think of for now. ;)

We need a sticky for the Fabia.....a buyers guide, as this question gets asked a lot.
