Skoda Fabia

Andrew Talbot is more than happy to relate the story of the car he bought for his son.

“He is at university and needed a replacement for his high-mileage Ford Ka,” says Andrew. “An ad in the newsagent had this 2003 Fabia with one owner, full history, garaged and 23,000 miles. Yup, 23,000.

“The price was just £925. I went to see it and it has to be one of the most immaculate little cars that I have ever seen, with a perfect interior and great tyres. So I bought it on the spot! Great value.”
