Where are you going to find the car ? Just tried a quick Autotrader search and the cheapest Octavia SDi within 30 miles of me is 1300, the cheapest TDI is 2.8K. I don't think AT is as good as the local papers though.
ah, the joys of the a720..
I work in livingston, and stay fairly close, but have family near glasgow and stuff out east lothian too-doing 2500 miles a month..

As for getting the car.. I have a history of travelling miles to get cars, so a wee trip for an octavia should be no hardship.

There are a few sub 800 octy's near here

As for your fab-take it you're on briskoda?
