Well my mate at work pick's up his 08 plate 2.0 TDI VRS TDI Hatch with 8K miles on the clock tomorrow.

A week a go he was all set for a 55 plate BMW 320d Touring with 50k miles on the clock until he had a sit in, and general nose round, my Octavia last Friday.

Interior finish and size of the boot is what sold it to him

Has anyone else managed to sell an Octavia on Skoda's behalf ???

Yes but the relative who bought a facelifted Octavia found that there were no mats in the car which were promised, no spare oil in the boot and some paintwork is required as it has been damaged in transit we think. This is a brand new car too. I'm on my third Octavia and none have been like this previously. The dealer is in the North West.

I had my mind set on a golf MK5 Gti until somebody suggested the Ocatvia VRS 2.0T to me and now the hardest problem for me is finding one. Such a good value car and in todays market it means alot.
