Test drove both an Octavia and Civic before settling on the civic because:

1) Civic didn't seem much smaller inside but seems a lot bigger on the outside

2) Civic road handling and ride felt much better

3) Interior of civic quite a bit better (comparing EX Civic and top of the range fully spec'd Octavia)

I did slightly prefer the Octavia engine of the car I drove though (2.0 diesel Octavia vs 1.8 petrol Civic)
