Not quite as funky and futuristic as the Mercedes F105 I reported on yesterday, but probably of more interest to most of our readers!:

It beat its main rivals (VW Polo and Ford Fiesta) on both space and practicality grounds. Technology also played a part: The Fabia has, as standard, a 6.5 inch touch screen and a ‘mirrorlink’ system that can sync with Android phones to provide sat-nav.

Congratulations, Skoda!
