    Value for Money

    PURCHASE:
    New

    DRIVING:
    Few hundred kilometers

     

    Exterior Looks too similiar but fog lamp is boxier and head lamp is longer.Rear has a very old feel.

     

    Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) Interiors are good looking but needs power windows,rear demister,rear wiper and powered mirrors and also climate control but gets a feature,rear AC Vents,first in class.Very spacious like old model and great and comfortable seats.

     

    Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox The 75 bhp is not much power but the 18.3 kgm is too much.Fuel economy is great and gear is crisp.

     

    Ride Quality & Handling Ride is stiff in low speeds than Polo but at 100kph is more settled than Polo.Great handling and is best.

     

    Final Words Before you consider Swift VDI or Figo ZXI Diesel than check  New Fabia 1.2 TDI Classic(The base variant)also.The New Fabia 1.2 TDI Classic has driver airbag and rear AC vent and is better than dated and awkward looking Swift VDI and unresponsive Figo.Fabia has better boot space in 300 litres while Figo is better than Swift in 284 litres and Swift has a tiny and puny boot in 232 litres.The only downside is the feature list but excellent VFM car.I cancelled booking of Fabia New 1,6 Elegance and booked Classic New Fabia Diesel.

     

    Areas of improvement Nothing.

     

    Value for money,build quality,engine has lot of torqueHalf features are missing like rear wipers and defogger
