Skoda Octavia 1.9TDi PD Classic Diesel Estate...

No car maker is closer to the IKEA ethos than Skoda. Like the famous flat pack furniture maker, its products are stylish, robust, practical and - above all - affordable. The Octavia estate is the perfect example of this. It's big enough to carry five adults - and their luggage - in comfort, has a wide range of petrol and diesel engines plus it's very well equipped as standard. Prices start at sensible levels and as many of the components have been tried-and-tested by Volkswagen, it's very reliable. Go for the 1.9 TDI for value and comfort or the 1.8 TSI for performance. A low emissions Greenline version is available that averages 64mpg plus there's also an excellent vRS model which is covered in a separate review. In early 2009 the Octavia was revised with a sleeker front end, new engines and an improved cabin.

The diesel line-up includes the faithful 105bhp 1.9-litre TDI which is used across Volkswagen, Skoda and SEAT cars plus a newer 2.0 TDI with 140bhp. Neither is very refined or quiet but they do offer strong, punchy performance and superb economy - the 1.9 TDI returns 58mpg. The Greenline model uses a newer common rail 1.6-litre TDI engine which is smoother and quieter. Thanks to engine and aerodynamic changes it emits an impressively low CO2 figure of 114g/km - making it cheap to tax - and returns 64mpg. This engine is also now available with a seven-speed DSG semi-automatic gearbox, with CO2 emissions of 123g/km - identical to that of the hatchback.
