1. Parts are very scarce and expensive but share most parts with volkswagen bora. 2. D fuel efficiency is superb. 3. The 2002 I used had a manual gear but changed d cluctch disk btw 2002 and 2004 despite it was bought new by a company. Don't knw if dat has to do with driving habbit. 4. D car is cool though I won't advice that u buy it cos of the spare part issue. For me its a very strong but unlucky car brand. 1 Like |

Nice and tough ride with good fuel efficiency. I actually drive from Umuahia to Lagos with less than 60 litres of fuel. I used it for 5 years and just recently sold it off. Same as VW Bora/Jetta. I dont agree with the parts being expensive unless U've entered 'one chance' of those spare parts dealers. Its cheaper to maintain an Octavia than a Camry. 4 Likes |

Skoda is owned by Volkswagen group so I would expect their cars to be of good quality (especially the more recent models). |

Pls I'm about to buy this car I need information on it. The owner says it's a 2008 skoda Fabia. Is he correct and is the car strong enough for this Uber /taixify business.

HoddyH: Skoda? Lesi nje wa? My friend, go and find an Accord/Camry to buy for a taxi business. One with 4cyl and AC. You want to stay in business and thus want something that any Kazeem can tinker with and ease of parts. Don't handicap yourself right from the start. 1 Like
