High-mileage Octavia ok?
Is it worth to consider buying the Skoda Octavia Greenline Facelift 1.6 77kW diesel 2010 model with 270,000 km mileage run? the seller says that he has replaced engine timing belt and water pump a few months eariler.
Our answer:
Hi Ajai,
As long as the mileage looks genuine, there are receipts that show the work carried out as specified on the water pump and timing belt, and it has a good service history throughout its life, then you can buy this car – as long as you’re happy with the price and the way it drives.
