Skoda’s revised Fabia supermini will enter the UK
market next month, featuring an all-new petrol line-up, hatch and estate body
styles and five trim level options, including the Monte Carlo and Color

three such units, boasting the following power outputs: 75 PS, 95 PS and 110 PS, the latter also available with an optional 7-speed

might have guessed, the starting price of £ 12,840 OTR is for the entry-level
Fabia S version.

you gain front fog lights and 15-inch Cygnus alloys, as well as Radio Swing
Plus and auto up/down functions for the electric windows. Meanwhile, Color
Edition versions, priced from £ 14,665, come with 16-inch Vigo wheels in white,
silver or black.

console and 16-inch Evora lloys. As for the flagship Monte Carlo spec, which
costs upwards of £ 16,785, it comes with climate control, LED rear lights, rear
