Skoda Fabia Scout – UK Launch
Wed, 17 Jun 2009The new Skoda Fabia Scout has launched in the UK We were a little underwhelmed when the Skoda Fabia Scout was revealed, and we really haven’t changed our minds. We can’t argue that Skodas don’t offer great value for money - and they are very well bolted together – but the Skoda Fabia Scout seems to lack the substance to substantiate its promise.

So you won’t be entirely amazed to discover that the video is an homage to the Zonda, and not exactly objective.
