Every so often, a member of the CarGurus UK team makes a video to introduce the cars that they own themselves, and about 18 months ago, it was the turn of Deputy Editor Ivan Aistrop to introduce his rather lovely 2006 Skoda Octavia vRS Mk2.

And during that introduction, Ivan stated that what he liked most about his car was that it didn't feel anywhere near as old as its 16 years, and that what's good about it is all the same stuff that's good about the all-new Mk4 version, but for a fraction of the price. However, he stopped short of doing a direct comparison between his old car and the brand new car because he thought it wouldn't be fair on his car. Well, this video puts that right...

Yep, so confident is Ivan that his snotty old Skoda will stand comparison with Skoda's latest offering that he compares them directly in all of the super-important areas considered in a regular CarGurus road test: practicality, quality, performance, comfort, handling, refinement and all the rest of it. And - spoiler alert! - the result is closer than you might think, even though the prices involved certainly aren't...
