Timing belt, brake disks and pads, shocks are leaking and some other issues. It's not running very well at all.

Yes they mentioned a mild hybrid. Skoda Octavia SE 1.5 TSI 115HP DSG 5DR. Petrol Hybrid.

I have a 2015 Skoda Octavia with 280,000 km. 1.6 Diesel. Great car but it's starting to give problems now. And the next service will be expensive (2000 Euro). I don't do enough mileage for diesel anymore. About 15,000km or less per year and rarely on motorways or above 90km/h. I live in a rural area and do a lot of small trips (5-12 miles). I am being offered 3,000 for my old Skoda Octavia and I am thinking of buying a 2025 1.5 Petrol Octavia (Automatic). It has 28,000km. SE TSI 115HP which costs 34,900 Euro. I had a look at a 2023 Enyak (80 KW Battery) and an Elroq but I am nervous about EV cars due to depreciation and I know very little about EVs. They do look like nice cars though. Big too. I was told the cost to install a charger was 1000 Euro. They have other petrol Octavias but they are only 1.0 engines which seems a bit small. Also they are manual and I would prefer to move to Automatic. I'd appreciate any advice. I like Octavias but maybe it is time to move to an EV model. I just want something reliable and economical.
