EXTERIOR
This incredible surviving Skoda Favorit not only has just 22, 338 miles from new but is one of rarest models ever made, the Black Line Edition. Unique features of the Black Line Edition, as listed, remain unaltered including the obvious Ebony Black double coating paint scheme which boasts a polished mirror shine and uniform finish.

The standard Black Line exhaust cover has been replaced. All trim, Bertone and registration etched glass and light fittings are in excellent order and the supplying Skoda main dealer number plates remain fitted. Quite possibly the best surviving Skoda Favorit Black Line Edition to be found anywhere?
INTERIOR
Being a post 1991 Favorit, the year in which Skoda entered the joint-venture partnership with Volkswagen, this example benefits from positive revisions to the interior in addition to improvements to exterior build quality, styling and safety. Volkswagen seats, dashboard and instruments were incorporated and you cannot fail to notice the vibrant special seat upholstery, the pattern of which is shared with the sister variant, the Silver Line Edition, but with a deliciously 90’s colour scheme unique to the Black Line. All interior furnishings, door cards, carpets and headlining are beautifully clean and preserved in line with the low mileage. The equipment and controls operate perfectly including the factory fitted Blaupunkt Paris stereo, albeit with ever so slightly failed pixels, and central locking fitted as standard to the model. The luggage area is spotless and even the original boot torch remains in place but currently inoperable. Perfect modern classic family motoring for those who insist on being different!
ENGINE & TRANSMISSION
The front mounted four-cylinder engine was a significant departure from Skoda’s traditional rear mounted engine fitted to the Favorit’s predecessors, the 105/ 120 Estelle and Rapid range. The 1289cc unit features Bosch Mono Motronic fuel injection and produces 54bhp and 94Nm of torque to achieve a top speed of 93mph and 0-62mph in 15 seconds. The engine bay is spotlessly clean with factory plates, chassis number stamp, PDI dabs and stickers all present and undamaged. Incredibly even the paint code label remains attached to the bulkhead which is virtually unheard of! Likewise, the common areas prone to water retention and corrosion are absolutely perfect in structure. The sturdy 5-speed gearbox is superb in operation.
WHEELS, TYRES & BRAKES
Ronal Centra diamond cut alloy wheels with Black glossy inner finish are pristine and complete with lockable centre caps showing only very minor blemish to the lacquer on one the caps. Matching tyres are fitted all round with excellent tread. The servo assisted braking system is factory standard and stops the car as it should.
HISTORY FILE
Supplied new by Skoda Main Dealer Main Dealer, Fourways of Ossett, the car was registered on the 7th April 1994. This delightful example was first registered to a Mrs Stainthorpe and had remained in the family for 26 years during which time it passed to two further family members of the same surname and address. Since 2020, the car has been in the ownership of passionate Skoda enthusiasts and has even been displayed each year at the Hagerty Festival of the Unexceptional (FOTU) where the car was marvelled and even drew the attention of several prominent classic car social media content creators. Photos, videos and vlogs are numerous online! Sold by KGF Classic Cars in April 2024 to an existing customer who enjoys eclectic modern classics and who also enjoys trying different cars, we were therefore delighted to have been offered this rare Skoda back.
The original Skoda document wallet holds all handbooks, guides and dealership literature including the service book with 12 stamps as well as both sets of keys. A folder of invoices and previous MOT records is present and the most recent service was in March 2024 at a renowned Skoda specialist, Chris Pepper Motor Services.
