IS no saloon vanant. The car’s power steenng is hght and its nde compliantly soft - although the smart 15 in. alloy wheels do make for more fidgety progress than m some lesser Fabia models. Rest to 60 is not particularly quick
either, gi-ven the provision of such a large engine in such a small car. You need to allow 9.9 seconds on the way to 121 m p h. Like all small cars, the Fabia makes
most sense in its cheaper forms. If, howev er, you are after a compact runabout that is not too small or feebly powered and is capable of taking on longer journeys in : comfort, then this 2.0-litre version is well worth checking out. ■'

I sayfvanous forms because, although .
the vehicle’lias only been offered in three j jUstinct-versionssmce its 1989 launch; | ' there have been more special editions over.' the years than you could possibly hope to .. shake a stick at.

Phoenix Special Edition is pneed at £1,000 over the r ^ ’pective list rates for the 1.6i and 1.8i ba^models. Any reasonably com petent salesperson will remind you that the additional equipment included on the Phoenix IS worth £1,600. The bottom line is £15,995 for the 1.6-
litre version and £16,595 for the gutsier 1.8. Check the small pnnt and you will dis cover that the Titamum metalhc pamt is an'option that comes at a £150 premium over these prices.
; : I t seems that Mazda’s penchant for spe cial editions of their world-famous roadster is well justified. As the Phoenix rises, who knows what they will coine up with next.
