Instead, I've picked up VW Jetta Diesel AT.
Yes, Diesel cars have become very hard to find a neat example. Most of them are minimum 1L kms driven.
Are you only looking for Octavia? why not Vento/Rapid?

I’ve had the pleasure of being driven around in a Jetta few times, and must say, it’s a lovely vehicle. I found it better than Laura, in a few aspects. I did come across a few very well-maintained Jettas, one with just 40k kms and complete service history.
However, I’m more keen on getting an immaculate 1st Gen Octavia. Are you aware of what the owner finally did with the 50k driven Octavia you were contemplating to purchase?

He was trying to exchange with new Benz GLC. Not sure what happened later.
