The SKODA OCTAVIA (2009-13) 5DR HATCHBACK 2.0 TDI CR DPF 170 VRS LIMITED EDITION 6SPD is a sporty, practical family hatchback, combining usefulness with a more energetic character. In the UK used-car market, it sits above ordinary family hatchbacks for performance, while remaining a sensible alternative to costlier cars. With 882 mycarcheck.com look-ups covering 393 different VINs, this version has a sample behind its ownership picture. Checks show an average recorded mileage of 131,000 miles, around 9,000 miles driven annually, and nearly four previous keepers. The average private-sale valuation is £3,200, a helpful guide rather than a guaranteed price. The five-door layout and cabin suit families, commuters and drivers wanting one car for work and weekends. Its vRS Limited Edition styling and diesel performance give it a more engaging feel than practical rivals, while the Octavia is known for generous space and value. Check history and condition carefully.
