PS: It's impossible to make a fast and smooth gearchange with that 1990 Favorit

There is a simple and perfect explanation why the Favorit 1.3 is faster than the Fabia 1.4:

WEIGHT.

 

[Yperion]

Don't forget that the Fabia is also 150-200 kgr heavier.

 

[DeDe]

Oh yes, it's heavier

I can 100% assure you that many >10 year old cheap cars are quite fast for these days data. Even my 16yo Clio can "smoke" any new car of its segment, since its only 800kg
