Trade secrets The bigger they are, the harder they fall. For the past few years it's been a case of the bigger the petrol engine, the bigger the bargain. It's a state of affairs that has been confirmed by those price guide people, Glass's. According to their stats, a Skoda Octavia 1.6 FSI Ambiente (2008/08-plate) has a trade value of ￡8175, whereas the 2.0-litre version with the same spec has a trade value of ￡8275. That's ￡100 more, despite costing an extra ￡1220 when new.
