Skoda is offering further reductions with the scrappage scheme on its Octavia model with up to £3,500 off the list price.

The 1.8 TSI Octavia, 2.0 TDI and 2.0 CR will get £3,500 off (which includes the £1,000 from the Government). The Octavia 1.8 TSI gets £3,200 off and the Octavia 1.6 MPI gets £3,000 off.

Chris Horrell, Skoda product marketing manager, said: “The scrappage scheme has been a great success for Škoda, so much so that we’ve extended our offers across the brand to cope with demand.

“We’ve taken over 2,000 orders under the scheme and are confident of that figure rising further as more drivers seek to take advantage of the extended offer.”
