The Skoda Fabia is one of the best superminis for sale in the UK today. It offers lots of practicality, decent space inside and a range of efficient engines. And while there's no vRS hot hatch, the Fabia is still a decent handling yet refined supermini, which helps to make it a front-runner in the class.

Precise steering and the lower kerbweight of the latest Fabia mean it handles more neatly than the previous version, proving light on its feet and nimble in town. But sporty handling arguably isn’t as important as comfort in a supermini, and while the Fabia isn't quick, it more than compensates in terms of ride quality.

It's spacious, too, with impressive space up front, ample leg room and lots of headroom. It’s even better in the rear - two six-footers can sit reasonably comfortably behind tall adults, and it will even take three adults without too much of a squeeze.

Customers needn't worry about safety, either, as the Fabia was awarded a full five-star rating by Euro NCAP.
