my brother has a roomster 2 1.4 as a courtesy car.sadly i won't be buying one cause i can't see over the bonnet.how many roomster owners have hit a car in front ??

if i don't like the new fabia my current fabia will be my last skoda !

I assume the current Fabia has the same seats/windscreen and bonnet line as the Roomster , so the view out will be the same.

After you drive the car for a bit, you soon get know the length of the car bonnet. I have driven many cars where you cannot see the bonnet, including my octy as I like the seat low and can park that withing 1" of my garage wall without looking at the front of the car. Most new cars are shaped like this at the front now due to EU laws that cars must be pedestrian friendly. As duncan has said already, the new fabia is exactly the same as the roomster from the B pillar forward.

i guess i'm being silly otherwise a very nice car !!!

After a short time you get used to it!

Try driving a Capri.......
