This video brings back many memories. I had my driving test in one of these cars, except that I was driving the hatchback version. The stress, the cold stare and emotionless voice of the examiner, the quiet clicking of the turn signal - it all comes back. Fortunately that's behind me now.
Never tired or bored with these small engine. For most of people who use the car mainly in city and short travels this car offers an excellent ratio between consum/ performance/ maintenance cost. Good video Joe!!!
why such a car is not good for longer journeys? What does it mean short trip? What is your opinion for a 250km trip? what are the worst things that can happen if I occasionally use the car for longer trips, too?
That weird whining sound is caused by gearbox. 1.0 MPI in Fabia 3 uses dq100 gearbox which is a gearbox from VW UP and it is noisy. Interesting thing is that Polo with this engine uses standard dq200 gearbox which is usually used with 1.2 TSI and 1.0 TSI.
Der klingt ja wie unser Diesel, wenn man die Motorhaube auf macht. Ich kenne den Fabia von 2006 mit dem 1,4l Sauger, der war die reinste Wanderdüne. Dagegen ist der 1,6 TDI direkt ein Rennwagen. Für die Stadt ist der Wagen sicher ausreichend, alles darüber hinaus macht keinen Spaß. Immerhin knurrt der Wagen im Innenraum als hätte er 50 Ps mehr.
Eh, it's good enough for short range trips and city driving. Plus it's a proven and reliable engine which will reward maintenance and care with long life
How does it drives on motorways? I don’t mean fuel consumption 😂 as I know it’s a money saver, but how does it sound doing 70mph or 115kmh long trip? The older generation sounded like it’s spilling its guts. Dzieki pozdro
Wouldn't be an issue to me. Over here the speed limit is 100 km/h, at that speed the engine spins at ~3300 rpm. 0-100 was not a full send in this video, you have to have dry conditions to test that out. Also, the 7L/100km consumption varies per person. If you're a good driver, you'll get decent mileage while still being able to keep up with traffic.
I have the 44kw one, honestly for 1st car and can't really complain, it's simple and gets me from A to B and costed me 5K €, it has everything for a beginner driver
Bruh, No problems, really. It's now over 220k km with LPG. The only problems is around the gearbox/clutch. Something bumps at idle since 120k. Engine works good, fuel cons. is the same...
Good drive Joe but servicing must be expensive needing a new engine at every major service, pity 'cause I quite liked the Fabia I was a passenger in one on a drive down through France a few years ago, but then it did have an even number of cylinders. Oh, I'm going to get some stick for that. Nice car spoilt by an underpowered engine. Well done Joe thanks again.

@@barbiliandan its okay for longer journeys

But the Polo with equal trim also cost around 8.000 euro more.

It's a bold move to buy a station with this engine.

test fajny silnik 3 cyl też daje rady
Ja tam nie przepadam za trzycylindrówkami - dziwnie brzmią i chodzą
Fajny film 👍👍
Good test 😀👍
Mam taką Fabię ma 140 000km ale nie ma takiego dziwnego pogłosu normalnie pracuje.. Ten sam rok

4000rpm at 120kph, 0-100 over 20 seconds and 7L/100km fuel consumption? This car is a joke.

LPG my man, LPG makes this car basically free to use

can you do a drive in a mk2 Mazda MX5, preferably the 1.6 engine?
Skoda czasu i pieniędzy
Przetestuj ursusa c360
W przeciwieństwie do pogody 🤪 bardzo ładny test 👍
Yes, joe😁, thanks😁
Bro there is a channel stealing your videos - ua-cam.com/users/AngelFixvideos
Real acceleration is much worse than official. Not good
Can you do subaru forester test drive
Nice! I had one 2010 Fabia vRS.
Very good car ❤️❤️❤️❤️
How are these 1.0 l engines covering past 100k km? From my colleagues experiences, these cars usually don't go over 70 k km without problems.
Because people can't drive properly. That the reason they don't last.
In company where I'm working, we have a few 1.0 TSI 95km, in Fabia and Scala. Some of them with more than 150000km withouth bigger issues.

Your colleagues are very bad drivers
@@supermutant01 Mind telling me what do you call proper driving? The cars aren't overused, they are just used on a daily home-work-home basis
Nice drive and vidéo
This engine is really good, the 1.0l 3cyl, in Peugeot 107, 108, C1, Aygo, vw up, clio iv, many cars has is too!
Very slow meh only for city driving
nice, but 75hp is not enough for this car
Je to sráč!
😉

This engine goes +300.000 km with no problems, if it is maintained and drived properly.
