I have an 07 blue estate diesel, bought from Bickertons (Ex demonstrator) I have had problems with a 'droning' noise from the rear end. Turned out it was 'chopping' the rear tyres, and they were droning. Camber was way out. Went to Hortons in Lincoln, who said it needed a 4 wheel allignment check. Had to take it to VW garage for that !! Went through Skoda customer services and got the money back, including 2 new tyres. I drive mine a bit harder than I probably should do, and average low 40's Only recall for exhaust sensor and software update -
Well, it's on the drive, and what a car !! 100 mile drive home from the dealers, 43 mpg (according to the computer), and a big smile to boot ! Just need a new customer somewhere a long way away now to go for a full day's play

I have just bought their '57 Blue vRS diesel estate demonstrator. Found it on the internet, did the deal basically over the phone, and collected the car within a week. On producing my License, the car was booked out to me for an hour, which was enough time to get on the M1 for a play ! Tony Braithwaite is your man. Trade in deal was lower than anywhere else, but the car is fully loaded, and cheaper than anywhere else. Shame they are 100 miles away, else they would be doing the servicing as well. Cheers Tony (Promised I would give you a mention didn't I ?) -
