Skoda Rapid Spaceback Elegance 1.6 TDI - Economical, Reliable, Spacious
A fantastic example of the Skoda Rapid Spaceback. A practical, comfortable and impressively economical hatchback that has been my dependable daily driver for the past 5 years. It's been a pleasure to own and is only being sold due to a new car purchase.
With just over 119,000 miles, this car is still driving superbly with no mechanical issues whatsoever. It starts first time, drives exactly as it should, and has been consistently reliable.
MOT until July 2026
Very cheap annual road tax
Excellent fuel economy - averaging 52 MPG over the last 1,200 miles (often even better)
Cruise control
Parking sensors/parking assist
Climate control
Bluetooth connectivity
DAB radio
Spacious interior and huge boot capacity - ideal for families, commuting, or longer trips
This 1.6 TDI offers a brilliant balance of performance, comfort, and low running costs - perfect for anyone looking for an economical yet versatile car.
As expected for its age and mileage, there are a few minor cosmetic marks:
Small paint chip on the rear bumper
A couple of tiny marks on the bonnet
Slight paint fade on the passenger-side rear door
Minor scuff on the driver-side rear quarter panel (cosmetic only)
There is also a slight creak over bumps and occasionally squeaky brakes, both of which have been professionally inspected multiple times with no faults found.
The fuel filler flap can occasionally be a little temperamental and may need a nudge to open - something I've lived with easily.
Overall, this is a honest, well-equipped, economical, and dependable car that should make an excellent purchase for its next owner.
Ready to drive away and enjoy.
