HONDA ZRV — snappy, fast, perfect in every way, whisper-quiet, maximum comfort, extraordinary quality and price. For me: 5 stars.

Skoda Fabia

The Skoda Fabia is a clever, no-nonsense small car that turns everyday chores into a breeze thanks to smart packaging and a surprisingly roomy cabin. It won’t set your pulses racing, but it’s a consistently sensible choice — reliable, easy to live with and blessed with a few neat tricks that make city life less faff.
