Nobody said Octavia estate. Which is a little awkward because....

Considered all posted though. Almost went down the BMW route, love the Volvo estates but the interiors didn't do it for me.

I would say vrs or Volvo xc60.
But that's because I own a octavia and work mainly on Volvos... 😁

Ps: the Octavia estate is brilliant around corners! 😝

I really like those, the only reason I didn't suggest one is that it's already mentioned in the OP :D

I have a 2006 Audi A4 B7 2.0T Quattro Estate, I love it. 

 

A quick reflash of the ECU and it produces 250 BHP and 380 NM. Was thinking of buying some thing else recently, but decided just to keep the Audi. It really is the second best car I have owned. 

 

So far really reliable and must be cheap to buy in the UK. 

 

Edit - seems I was late to the party. Didn't see you had gone for the Skoda. 

 

Can highly recommend - https://en.bsr.se/tuning-kits

Haha! Yeah, you're not the first person to say that!

Remap takes it to 220bhp & 480Nm. I had a box on it for a while but it just over fuelled, which caused the DPF to regenerate too often.
Still getting between 45-50mpg. On a long run, that goes up to 60mpg.
