Visited a showroom opposite fame adlabs in Andheri, Mumbai. three fabias were displayed and a good crowd had gathered.
must say the car looks great in white and brilliant in silver. on display were 3 cars all tdi's-candy white, cappuccino beige, and brilliant silver.
boot space is pretty big for a hatch back.
seems to have good ground clearance. not sure about it though.
i love the big bonnet, makes me feel as though the car is a huge engine.
the class of any product or service comes out in the detailing. this car surely
has been given a lot of attention. small features like defogger for the driver's window, lock and unlock button on the center console in front of the cup holders. touch pad button for opening the rear hatch etc. etc.
even if the driver's seat is taken fully behind the backseat passenger does have good legroom. car feels really strong when you sit in the driver's seat. steering wheel is great and also I love the gear stick.
the car does not look huge at all, altough it is huge.
my thought is that because of the high price tag, owning a fabia would become more of a statement, saying that "i have the king of all hatchbacks". although its way to early to give it such a title. but something like that. "i have a European car and I have enough money to maintain it".
also lets see how people pete(that is 'car lingo' for modify-i love the word) this car!!
ohh almost forgot, the tires man. they'r gorgeous and really wide, am sure they'll offer good grip on the road.
LOOKS GOOD TO ME.
