Our Verdict
A strong recommendation for buyers seeki
Focus on verifying the full service history to ensure the 1.5L TSI engine has been maintained according to manufacturer intervals. As the vehicle is below average mileage, check for any signs of deterioration from infrequent use, such as battery health or tyre flat-spotting.
Negotiate based on the current state of consumables. While the 2025 MOT was clean, the 2023 record showed front tyres worn close to the legal limit, so verify the current tread depth and brand of tyres fitted to ensure they are of a quality consistent with the vehicle's specification.
The 1.5L petrol engine is Euro 6 DG compliant, ensuring it meets modern emissions standards and avoids most urban charge zones. Running costs are typically moderate for this class, with fuel economy and insurance groups reflecting the SE Technology trim's positioning as a mid-to-high spec family car.
Annual expenditure will be driven by fuel, VED, and insurance. Maintenance costs for the Octavia are generally predictable, though owners should budget for the specific wear-and-tear items common to the model's aggregate data.
Inspect the suspension arms for any play or perished bushings, as these are identified as a top failure reason across the wider Octavia fleet. Carefully check the brake discs and pads for excessive wear, another common model-wide failure point, despite the clean 2025 MOT.
Verify the condition of all four tyres. Given the 2023 MOT advisories for worn front tyres, it is important to confirm that replacements were made and that the current set is wearing evenly, which would rule out alignment issues.
This silver 2020 Skoda Octavia SE Technology TSI has recorded 44,151 miles as of its last MOT in September 2025. It has passed all three recorded MOT tests, with only minor advisories regarding tyre wear and a child seat obstructing inspection in previous years. The vehicle's usage is notably lower than the aggregate average for this model.
The Octavia demonstrates strong reliability with a 90.3% MOT pass rate across 7,853 analysed vehicles.
