This is the first time I've been even slightly seriously investigating potential replacements for my Octavia SE Sport 1.5 tsi. Would have liked to stick with Octavias but it appears 1.5 petrol, 150 ps and a manual box are no longer an option, they do still appear to be in the Scala with the added bonus of a real handbrake (no, my preference is not based on any rallying/handbrake turn delusions). Thing is I see an advert for a new 1.5 SEL Manual with what seems like a surprisingly good price reduction so I'm just wondering if there is something I'm not aware of.

Is it OK to put up the price on here? If so I'll put it up.

1.5 TSI SE L Edition Euro 6 (s/s) 5dr, Manual, £21,407, RRP £28,125, Save £6,718

So as far as I'm concerned - Best engine, best trim level, best gearbox.

Monte Carlo ruled out due to 18" wheels and glass roof.

Well it looks like a good deal provided it's not "nearly new". If you would be the first owner and you'd have all the usual first owner protection then looks good. Skoda don't have a deal anywhere near as good in the UK on their web site.

Sorry severe brain fade obviously current car is 1.4 tsi

Seems a good price. Carwow have advertised 2027 1.0 TSI manuals as that price.
