I'm not planning to sell my current car for a while, but I like to car shop and so got to thinking. 

 

I have a Fabia estate now but want to buy an Octavia estate next time around. I know exactly what I want, but I have a feeling I'm going to have trouble finding it. What I want-

 

- Petrol. Would prefer the 1.6 engine

- Estate

- Reasonable miliage- say under 70k

- Manual 

 

Sounds okay up to now, right? Now chuck in heated seats and mirrors, and they seem impossible to find. (Current car has heated seats/mirrors, and I'm loathe to give them up.) Am I asking too much?!

 

 

Heated mirrors wont be a problem, heated seats more so. 1.6 will be...well, good luck with that

Searched for Petrol Manual Octavia Estate + keyword heated - found 58

 

At least one on the first page had heated seats but I'm not reading through 58 ads for you

Thanks! Where did you search? (and what price range?)

 

I know heated seats probably seem like a stupid thing to get hung up on, but they're a godsend in the winter. 

The L&K trim has them as standard...
