Welcome to Briskoda mate.

Check out the fabia guide for any common faults that are experianced with the fabia so you can keep a eye out what to look for when you make your purchase.

Hope this helps.

Welcome to Briskoda mate, great little cars aren't they

Do as Davy says and check the Fabia guide out and if you want to know any specific info a quick use of the Search function usually results in a goldmine of answers.

Good luck with the hunting

Matt

Re: a hopeful vrs owner!!!

cheers everyone for the welcome. i'm used to driving a focus esp2.0 petrol and to be honest the fabia pulls way better and i'm sure with a few tweeks will handle just as well too!!!

Never driven a Focus but you're right you only need a few tweeks for the handling to become spot on.
