Hi, 

Thinking of buying 2011 vrs octavia. Tdi 170bhp manual. Just wondering what issues should i be looking out for. Also unsure which edition it is? Its has heated full leather front seats which im sure wasnt on all editions? Thanks in advance

Heated seats were an option on most vrs unless its the blackline.

If it is it will have dab and black wheels.

No real issues other than dpf problems on higher mileage or short journeys but even these are rare.

I have had no issues whatsover with mine in the 15 months ive had it.

I know its not the black edition anyway. Just ordinary 18s. Only differentlce i ca see is the full leather seats. Most others i was looking at had half leather. 

    Ok thanks i will keep an eye out for any dpf issues. New dpf expensive?

just check normal things cambelt/waterpump ect,

there is a app that might helip you. ive used it on several  cars and works realy well ,
