The specific tax rate you pay for your Octavia will depend on the year it was registered, as those are the tax regulations that will apply for that specific car throughout its life. Most versions will cost between £150 and £300 per year to tax, with range-topping models costing even more.
For buyers shopping nearly new cars, the majority of Octavia models sit in tax band G, with previous-generation 1.6-litre diesel versions sneaking into band F, and potent vRS models showing up in bands H and I.
