This is the special edition Skoda Fabia Monte Carlo, created to celebrate the 100th year of the legendary Monte Carlo Rally which happens this month. It also celebrates the brand’s 110th anniversary of participating in motorsports – yes, Skoda has been around that long!
The Skoda Fabia Monte Carlo is available as a hatchback only and is based on the SE trim level. The engine line-up offered for the Skoda Fabia Monte Carlo includes the 1.2-liter engine with 69 PS, the 1.2 TSI 86PS, the 1.2 TSI 105PS, the 1.6 TDI CR 75PS and the 1.6 TDI CR 105PS.
On the outside the Skoda Fabia Monte Carlo boasts black plastic body mouldings over the wheel arches and down the full length of the car, a black roof, black wing mirror covers, a black radiator grille and darkened headlamps. The 16 inch Comet light alloy wheels are also finished in black for perfect harmony and sporty look.
The interior gets either black or black and red sports seats, a black roof lining, a leather steering wheel with red stitching, leather handbrake and gearstick gaiter with red stitching. Silver kick plates and steel pedals are also fitted as standard.
Skoda’s Rallye Monte Carlo entrant is the Skoda Fabia S2000, and their team did decently in 2010, finishing second, third and fifth (in class) with Hänninen, Vouilloz and Kopecký, respectively. Danny will be in Monte Carlo to cheer on our very own Proton Satria Neo S2000 rally cars, so expect some live coverage of the rally.
