Our Verdict
A recommended purchase provided the rece
Request the invoices for the work carried out in March 2026 to address the worn suspension arm pins and bushes on both the nearside and offside front. Confirming these were replaced with quality parts is essential for ensuring the vehicle's handling remains consistent.
Check the current condition of the tyres, as the nearside front was flagged as being close to the legal limit during the last MOT. Use this as a point of negotiation if the tyres still show significant wear. Finally, verify the service history to ensure oil and filter changes have been performed regularly, as MOT records only confirm roadworthiness, not mechanical maintenance.
The 1498cc petrol engine is Euro 6 compliant, ensuring it meets current UK emissions standards and avoiding charges in most low-emission zones. Fuel economy for this engine is typically efficient for a family car of this size.
Insurance groups for the Octavia are generally moderate, and the vehicle's tax band is based on its Euro 6 status and CO2 emissions. Maintenance costs are typically standard for the brand, though the recent suspension work suggests the owner has been addressing wear-and-tear items as they arise.
Focus your inspection on the front suspension. The March 2026 MOT failure specifically cited excessively worn pins or bushes on both the nearside and offside front suspension arms; ensure these feel tight and do not knock during a test drive.
Inspect the tyres, particularly the nearside front, to ensure it has been replaced since the March 2026 advisory. Additionally, while not a failure on this specific vehicle, aggregate data for the Octavia highlights brake pads and headlamps as common failure points, so these should be checked for wear or condensation.
This silver 2019 Skoda Octavia has recorded 57,569 miles, which is below the average for its age. The MOT history shows two failures since 2024, including a recent issue with front suspension arm bushes and a minor windscreen washer fault, both of which were resolved to achieve a pass in March 2026.
The Skoda Octavia maintains a respectable average MOT pass rate of 82.6% across a large sample of over 217,000 vehicles.
