A couple of decades ago, few families had Skoda on their shopping lists. This was a value brand but it wasn't one you'd attach much value to. What changed all of that was this car, the Octavia, launched in 1996 and the model that finally persuaded buyers to take Skoda seriously. It was a conservative, spacious and capable design based on the Volkswagen Golf and over a million were sold before this second generation version arrived in 2004.
This car consolidated its predecessor's success amongst buyers who rather liked the idea of a five-door hatch or estate car bigger than a Golf but slightly smaller than something Mondeo-sized like a Passat. Once they'd taken delivery, they were rarely disappointed. Even as recently as 2008, the Octavia was winning its class in the JD Power Customer Satisfaction survey. By the end of that year however, sales were starting to dwindle, hence the announcement of the facelifted version we're looking at here which sold until the arrival of the MK3 model in the Spring of 2013. Now is a good time to pick up a used MK2 Octavia, so here's what to look for.

Just had the MOT done on my 2010 1.9TDi Octavia and flew through with no issues. Best car I've ever owned!

I have Octavia 2006 van whit Dsg for now almost 2 years and until now i never had any serious problem.Great car for quality and price that in this days you dont find.

[@garywinterbottom6073]

The 1.9tdi is totally bulletproof run forever. 😊

[@theresnobodyhere5778]

yep this guy says this on all the reviews of vws skodas cars,avoid the 1.9 😂😂😂 its the only engine to go for,, its only downside is you need to give it a service at 300k miles

[@user-sd2mh4gz7j]

That DSG gearbox is expensive when it breaks. Mine did not long after the warranty expired. It’s a known problem: the mechatronic unit can’t withstand extreme temperatures and a Bradford cold spell put paid to it. VW group weren’t interested. I drive Hondas now.
