    Hey! I hope you are all well! I started a thread a few months back about the Skoda Octavia....
    Long story short: i have to get a car fairly soon..
    I am looking at an
    -Octavia..a hatchback or even better, an estate...
    -1.9tdi engine or bigger
    -lowish mileage
    -high spec: if possible leather seats, cruise control, bluetooth connectivity, parking sensors etc..
    -July 2008 + to meet emissions regulations
    -ideally a car from March 2009, when the Octavia was restyled..

    Am I looking for too much?

    What sort of ££££ am I talking about?

    Is there a model of the Octavia range I need to look out for?

    Appreciate your advice...

    I'd say you will struggle to find anything with reasonable mileage on that budget. This high miler is close to your budget so a genuine low mileage example will fetch more:

    You might have to go to the UK especially spec wise. Most Octavias sold here were Ambient spec and even some of the toys you listed were options on the Elegance model.

    you might find it easier to get a new model superb rather than a Octavia in that kind of spec. The elegance model has all that spec. They came out in 2008. You would probably be talking about 10-12 grand with that spec and lowish milage.

    Thanks for the replies.. Would an Octavia @ that price be a good buy, in terms of build quality, reliability etc... Or could i do better with a different make?
