The Škoda 120 L, produced from 1976 to 1990, was a rear-engined, rear-wheel drive compact car manufactured by the Czech automaker Škoda. It was a popular choice for its affordability, reliability, and practicality, serving as a mainstay of transportation for many households in Eastern Europe and beyond. The 120 L was a significant upgrade over its predecessor, the Škoda 100/110 series, incorporating numerous design and mechanical innovations. These included a larger, more powerful 1.2-liter engine, a more spacious and modern interior, and improved suspension and braking systems. The 120 L was initially available in a single body style, a four-door saloon, though a station wagon variant, known as the 120 L Combi, was introduced later in its production run. It was also offered in various trim levels, ranging from basic to more luxurious versions with features such as vinyl upholstery, chrome accents, and a radio.

Despite its humble origins and relatively simplistic design, the Škoda 120 L proved to be robust and dependable vehicle, capable of weathering the rigors of everyday use. It was known for its spacious cabin, which provided comfortable seating for four adults, and its ample trunk space, making it suitable for hauling cargo. The 120 L's fuel efficiency and relatively low maintenance costs made it a practical choice for families and businesses alike. Though its performance was unspectacular, it offered decent handling and a comfortable ride on smooth roads. The Škoda 120 L's enduring legacy is cemented by its widespread popularity in numerous countries across Eastern Europe and beyond, where it continues to be a familiar sight even today, decades after its production ceased. Its simple design, practicality, and affordability made it a beloved car for many, leaving an indelible mark on the automotive landscape of the late 20th century.
