  1. I will go out take a picture now for you to show you. You don't really notice the issue to be honest. The gearbox was rebuilt properly with new clutches, fluids and seals. It was done by Dartford Transmissions so a specialist and they provide it with 12 months warranty. Yes, vehicle is still available.
  2. Yeah, it really does. I get into 2019 Skodas and I am disappointed because they feel poorly equipped in comparison!
  3. 2011 Skoda Superb Elegance estate 1.8tsi DSG (7-speed dual clutch) MOT until September. Selling due to company car. Beige with black leather interior. Full service history. Brakes have all been replaced within the last 12 months. Tyres are all fairly new (Avons). Rebuilt gearbox (with receipt for £2,000). Very comfortable car - loads of space. Relaxing to drive. TOP spec, FULLY loaded. Literally, every option was ticked at new so the car has: Elegance spec which gets you: - Electric memory seats - Xenon lights - 18" alloys - Columbus Sat Nav - Auto lights and wipers - Bluetooth - Tri-zone climate control Comes with £5k of options from new, including: - KESSY Keyless entry - Electric tailgate - Park Assist with front & rear sensors - Heated front & rear seats - Ventilated front seats - Panoramic sunroof - Heated windscreen - Upgraded sound system - Steering wheel gearshift paddles - Rear window blinds - CD Autochanger - Spare wheel - Load rails, fixings and netting in boot Bad Points - Top half of rev counter doesn't illuminate - General age related wear and tear - Sat nav thinks it is Germany - needs an adaptor for the antenna (£30) £6,250 Located: Trowbridge Pics: https://photos.app.goo.gl/7YMNcYvSbiagNFBX6 SOLD
  4. I've had exactly the same problem with my car. I've changed the fuse 15 and 4, and also checked all the other fuses individually (visual inspection only) and still no interior lights. Any pointers before I take it to a garage? Thanks.
  5. I have Team Heko ones fitted on my car. I didn't use the metal clips - just the 3M strips. It took a little while for them to bed in, and one of them has dropped down a little bit. Most annoying feature is the wind noise, which I find to be excessive. It is so bad that I would like to take them off but I really like the look of them. RN122790 by Rob Parker-Norman, on Flickr
  6. Envious. Any pics? Seems the perfect transmission for the vRS, needs the TSi though.
  7. In recent years I've seen countless Felicias advertised that I would have liked to have homed but didn't have the space. They had low mileage, low owner counts and were in lovely original condition with little to no rust. I had one myself, a lovely pea green L. I sold mine last year but fancy another now. I've been looking for a little while and I can't find anything that fits the bill - have they really all disappeared? Has anyone got one they want to sell? I want a 1.3, pre-facelift. Not bothered by hatch or estate, but would prefer a 68bhp engine. Cheers.
  8. Set a date and I will see if I am available. I've moved from the area so would love an excuse to come back and enjoy the roads of this beautiful part of the country.
  9. I'm away from home at the moment but from memory the red car is based on a Kaden model that was then modified by hand. It is number 1 of 200. The other two are IXO I think. I'll be honest they weren't cheap... £45 minimum each ... but the quality is up there. The picture doesn't do them justice. Sometimes you can find some rally Octavias going cheaply on eBay; although I've only ever seen the night rally one that I have once .. and I paid £60+ for that (just don't tell my wife!)
