Our Verdict
This is a strong candidate for buyers se
Given the low mileage of 30,474 miles, you should verify that the service intervals have been met according to the manufacturer's schedule, as low mileage does not always equate to regular maintenance. When inspecting, check the service book for evidence of oil changes and inspections.
Because the 2025 MOT noted light misting on the nearside front shock absorber, ensure this issue has been addressed or that the misting has not progressed to a leak. While the 2026 MOT passed with no defects, a physical inspection of the suspension components is always a prudent step for a used petrol vehicle.
As a 1.5L Euro 6 petrol engine, this Octavia should offer a balanced profile of fuel efficiency and tax positioning. Running costs will be largely determined by the specific insurance group and the buyer's annual mileage.
Typical maintenance for this model involves standard consumables like brake pads and tyres. Based on the aggregate data for this model, brake pads are a common maintenance item to budget for. Estimated annual running costs typically range from £900 to £1,200 depending on usage and insurance profile.
Focus your inspection on the suspension system. The 2025 MOT record specifically identified 'light misting of oil' on the nearside front shock absorber; check that this area is dry during your viewing to ensure the component is stable.
Additionally, keep an eye on the braking system and lighting. While this specific vehicle has had no failures, aggregate data for the Skoda Octavia shows brake pads and headlamps as common MOT failure points. Ensure the brake pads have sufficient life remaining and that all light clusters are fully functional.
Registered in October 2019, this red 1.5L petrol Octavia has covered 30,474 miles, which is significantly lower than the model average of 9,636 miles per year. The MOT history shows five consecutive passes, with the most recent test in August 2026 showing no defects. The vehicle's mileage and recent test results suggest it has been used for relatively light annual travel.
The Skoda Octavia shows an average MOT pass rate of 82.6% across 217,921 analysed vehicles, with common failure points being brake pads and headlamps.
