Hi, I'm selling my Skoda Octavia vRS Mk1 estate. I bought it as a project car as I like the Mk 1 wagon shape and there was opportunity to tidy it up. However, we moved house last year and I gave up a driveway and garage and my enthusiasm has faded and I now want to move it on. Also, living in rural Yorkshire and the "poor" road quality here means I'm heading back to Subaru having previously owned a bullet proof Forester. I'll be keeping the Yeti though so not leaving Briskoda entirely and all the great help and advice it offers.
Here's the car details.

Body work:
Paint is cracked and chipped n/s rear bumper. I dinged it, hitting our other car while reversing it onto the drive.
Some other scratches and marks that are relevant with age of the car. Notably, a previous owner thought it was a good idea to move the vRS badge under the Skoda badge on the boot lid. WHY?!
Also, I've removed the two orange LED lights from the front bumper intakes. Again, a previous owner had these wired up to the side repeaters. WHY?!
These are shown in the photo gallery.
