Used Skoda Octavia Estate cars for sale

Even after Volkswagen took over at Skoda there were still a few years in which the company held on to its old image. But the car that really marked the change and transformed them into a serious player was the Octavia.

VW's build quality and attention to detail really shone through and today the Skoda Octavia Estate can compete with the best of them.

It boasts all of the marque's traditional virtues including being stylish, robust, practical and exceptionally affordable - best of all, there are plenty available on the used car market.

There's a good range of engines to choose from, both in petrol and diesel varieties. In newer models the Greenline diesel versions are particularly popular choices offering exceptionally low emissions coupled with consumption figures that Skoda claim can deliver 72 mpg or more.

Some models also have the option of the excellent Volkswagen seven-speed DSG gearbox and in models made from 2013 onwards there's even a 4x4 option.

It's a very comfortable car to drive too, with hardly any cabin noise and plenty of room for up to five adults. Cargo space is also class-leading with the latest models offing a maximum luggage capacity of 1,740L.
