Skoda Fabia 1.2
* All the information you need
* Are you entitled to the cash?
The Fabia isn't quite as well kitted out as the winning Hyundai, but it ran it close. That's partly because Skoda will give you an extra 630 off the price in addition to the 2000 you're entitled to for scrapping your old car.
The Fabia is a seriously spacious supermini, and its ride, handling and build quality aren't far behind the class-leading Ford Fiesta and Vauxhall Corsa.
We've gone for the entry-level model because, although it isn't quick, it's the cheapest Fabia to buy by some margin and still comes with an impressive amount of standard equipment.
Key equipment
Auxiliary-input CD player (four speakers), central locking, driver and passenger airbags, side airbags, electric front windows, height-adjustable driver's seat, height- and reach-adjustable steering wheel, split-folding rear seats.
