Default Fabia Estate

The new Fabia Estate seems to appear shorter than the old one?


I haven't had the chance to see both proper side by side so it just might be me not looking at them both proper.
Has a nice shape though.

The new estate is just 7mm longer than the old model it replaces. It is tardis-like.

such a good car! ive done 2500 miles in a level 3 estate and its great fun! i do miss that little extra the roomster had, but due to the better aerodynamics i enjoy the fab for driving on the motorway better than the roo. but i'd have another scout version any day!

What size engine though?? I had a 1.4 petrol level 1 for the day last week. I thought it was very underpowered.
