Hi all,.

Glad I found this web site, I thinking of buying a Octiva 1.9 TDi. I drive about 500 miles a week and I have been told that the mpg is great!!

Anyone got advice or hints???

Thanks

Welcome to Briskoda,

Are you thinking of buying a MK1 or MK2 Octavia.

Hi

If the MK2 is between the years 2003 to 2005 than, yes is a Mk2!! The car I thinking about will be a black, Tdi, 2005 with the 6 speed auto box!

when all the miles I do, I feel a auto box would be better.

Welcome :orb_wave:

Only advice really, is test drive 1, return the car and leave your signature behind on the piece of paper that says " i bought 1 "

Welcome to Briskoda. Rumour has it that diesels are economical - but I will stick with my 1.8T for now.

Its not a rumour , it`s true.

That`s why taxi drivers use them.

Great car I love them!!

But hey it`s a Skoda!!!

Enjoy the car mate and watch all the heads turn.

Especially in black.
