Spanner can help turn your car details into an advert.
Could suit you if…
- Your usual group fits within 5 seats, including the driver. Check passenger space and any child-seat fit in person.
- Many journeys are local or relatively short: petrol can fit that use without choosing diesel just for occasional long trips.
- You want practical access for everyday shopping and bags: the hatchback opening may suit your routine. Check actual boot space.
Think twice if…
- You need to carry more than 5 people together: the advert records 5 seats, including the driver.
- You need predictable ownership costs: at around 10 years old and 70,000 km, check maintenance records and upcoming work. Mileage alone does not tell you the car's condition.
This is general guidance about this type of car and your needs — not an inspection or approval of this individual car.
This is the Mk3 Fabia (2014/15 onwards) which in petrol form is commonly fitted with the 1.0-litre three-cylinder (TSI or MPI) or small 1.2/1.4 engines and a manual 5- or 6-speed gearbox. Turbocharged TSI petrols are very economical but appreciate regular oil changes and proper warm-up/cool-down habits; the manual clutch is the main wear item on older examples. Parts and servicing are inexpensive and widely available in Ireland, and the hatchback boot is good for the class though cabin space is compact compared with larger family cars.
- Clutch engagement and travel — test for slipping or heavy bite, especially from a standing start and when pulling up a hill.
- Listen for unusual timing-chain/tensioner rattle on cold start and low revs (some small TSI engines can show noise if tensioners age).
- Check for turbo boost issues or smoke on hard acceleration on turbo petrol versions (hose leaks, loose clamps or oil leaks).
- Suspension and steering knocks over bumps — rear suspension bush wear and front drop-link/track-rod wear are common on older small cars.
- Tyre age and condition (look for dry rot/cracks) as tyres on a 10‑year car are often due for replacement regardless of tread depth.

Lovely 2016 Skoda Fabia 1.2 TSI Ambition in excellent condition with only 70,000 km. The car has 10 months NCT, 6 months tax, and will come with a 6-month warranty, extendable to 12 or 24 months. We acquired this Fabia directly from its previous local owner, who had it for the past four years. No expense has been spared in maintaining the car since new, backed up with extensive records from Skoda and other garages, including a recent service, new tyres and new rear brake discs. It has also recently passed its NCT. With the 1.2 TSI 90hp engine the car drives very well. Being the Ambition model it offers a good range of features and is very comfortable. It also comes with a full-size spare tyre. In addition to service records, we have the owner's handbooks, two keys and a clear vehicle history report. High-resolution photos available on request.
