Skoda Octavia
SANITY CZECH
FEW CARS YOU'D describe as being a peach, but the charming Skoda Octavia has always been a car to earn that moniker. With plenty of thoughtful design and ergonomic touches, a beautifully executed ridehandling balance, and lots of grunt in RS guise, the Octavia is a very easy car to like in our books - especially in latest NX-generation guise (based on the same platform as the Mk8 VW Golf).
With Skoda's generous seven-year new-car warranty, grab yourself a 2021 example and you'll still have four years' of factory-backed peace of mind. After which we might consider rinsing and repeating, given VAG products' mixed reputation for long-term reliability.
