Own a 56 plate Octavia estate 1.9tdi. Had for 6 years and pretty impressed with reliability and economy. One or two minor issues like rear windscreen wiper motor and boot lid lock but other than that good ol motor.

I have a 12 year old Skoda Octavia mk3 TSI 1.4 with 155000 miles on the clock. It has JUST scraped through its MOT after repeated emissions failures due to carbon buildup. The mechanic has told me he doesn't want to see the car back next year as it won't pass again and cleaning the carbon deposit off wouldn't be worth it given the age and value of the car.
