Octavia or Golf wagon?

...

I will soon turn 75 and want a small to medium-sized station wagon. Would you recommend Volkswagen Golf or Skoda Octavia, which seem rather similar. How do running costs and resale values compare?

The Octavia is a ripper thing, and great value. It gets The Tick from me.
