  • Auction visit 3 Apr 2024 (Forum)
    £1,600 fees - if a private buyer. Too much money. 2015 Skoda Octavia 1.4 TSi SE 5dr - 54,000 miles. Tidy car but had poorly matched o/s wing repaint. Made £5,500 plus fees.

  • Toyota Auris Touring Sports - Which 2015 Petrol Estate? - Auris or Ceed? 18 Jan 2019 (Forum)
    and registered in October 2015, so I assume the Kia has 3+ years warranty left and the Toyota 1+ year. The Kia is thirster and has higher car tax, so over 5 years I estimate the total cost (purchase+fuel+tax) will be roughly similar excluding servicing & repairs
