Both of them look great at least, far better than I'd imagined, particularly the Skoda.

Agree that the new Fabia looks better than feared.

What baffles me is the sound. It sounds trully as a 3-cylinder but I'm quite sure it is 4-cylinder engine (the only VW three cylinder is 1.0 TSI Evo). The sound is simply weird.
