***VIEWING BY APPOINTMENT ONLY*** Now this is a car we’re genuinely excited about — the legendary Skoda Octavia 1.9 TDI, finished in a timeless design and powered by what is quite possibly one of the most reliable diesel engines ever made. If you know, you know — these 1.9 TDIs are known to go 250,000–300,000 miles and still tick on without a fuss. This one? Drives like it’s only done 70k… and that’s no exaggeration. Let’s talk history — because this one’s got plenty of it, and it’s all the good kind. It comes with full service history, plus a folder packed with invoices and maintenance records from previous owners. No guesswork here — you can see exactly what’s been done and when. Big recent spend? Absolutely. In October 2024, this car had a brand-new cambelt, clutch, and flywheel fitted — with an invoice to prove it, costing a whopping £1,760. That alone puts it streets ahead of others in this price range. More recent TLC? You bet. It now sits on 4 brand-new tyres, just fitted last week. It’s also got a long MOT until 22nd December 2025, and we’re even fitting a new boot strut before handover — it’s on order and will be sorted for you. And how does it drive? In a word — beautifully. Smooth clutch, slick gearbox, no knocking, no funny noises, just a solid, confident drive that puts many newer cars to shame. It honestly surprised us — even our own techs were nodding with approval during the inspection. Yes, it’s a 59 plate, so naturally there are a few age-related marks and small scratches here and there, but nothing worth worrying about. This is the kind of car that just keeps on going — and keeps doing it well. We say this with confidence — if you’re after a proper diesel workhorse that drives like a dream and has had all the big jobs done, this one won’t disappoint. ????
