08 plate octavia II vRS 170 - looking to buy

[monkeykler]

Hi

I currently own a Mk1 Fabia vRS but it's a little too small for me, i saw a Black magic Octavia II estate today for sale 08 plate and instantly I fell in love and want it lol plus it seems a lot cheaper to insure than my 53 plate Fabia, I was just wondering if there was any common faults with these that i could check before buying etc?

Thanks in advance

Is it a cr or a pd engine?

Mines a pd and love it but some say they give dpf problems but I know lots with them that never had a bother. Injectors are also free now under recall.

Don't get too hung up on problems on any forum and u never hear from people with no problems which is a way higher number
