SKODA OCTAVIA (2009-13) 5DR HATCHBACK 2.0 TDI CR DPF 170 EU5 VRS 6SPD
Buyer's Guide & Data from our Checks
The SKODA OCTAVIA (2009-13) 5DR HATCHBACK 2.0 TDI CR DPF 170 EU5 VRS 6SPD is a sporty five-door family hatchback, and a familiar alternative to a Volkswagen Golf or Ford Focus in the UK used-car market. Its roomy cabin and useful boot make it well suited to family duties, commuting and longer journeys.
The 170PS diesel delivers brisk overtaking and relaxed motorway pace, while its efficient design can help keep fuel use sensible for a car with this much performance. VRS styling and a six-speed manual add a sportier feel, but the Octavia remains practical rather than an uncompromising hot hatch. It offers a compelling blend of pace and everyday usefulness.
