Shame sounded like a nice motor. Hope the new one is just as Superb.

Nope. My lad caught it on our way home from town today shopping, at some traffic lights.

Probably going to be saying goodbye unless there's a cheap Scala or similar nearby.....
£20-30 RFL sweetens the deal also for the Leon petrol TSI. The TDIs are into the early £200’s some of them, we are certainly paying the price keeping them going.

I can vouch for a late 2013 1.2TSI 105BHP Leon 5 door hatch, we got the SE Tech. Has Nav. iPod/phone/USB connection. Think SD card too. LED front and rear lights. Nice looking motor. 6 Speed manual. Proper handbrake. Arm rest jumbo box. Cruise control. Nice maxidot type computer and more on stereo. MF Steering Wheel. All important cam belt not chain engine, was a factor for me. On a run can do 50MPG or more, around town can vary say 35-40, but I can eeek 45-50 out of it. Being a petrol not much torque like the diesels, so you need to rev high to get decent poke. But it’s no slouch. 2 adults and 2 teens has started to feel a little underpowered sometimes. I would get the 1.4 125bhp FR next looks the part and some more horses. It’s our only ULEZ car for Bham and London. All 3 of mine are still diesels. Good luck with your search.

Sorry to hear about the accident. Good to hear you are okay. Do you not want to replace it with another? Hard to find a decent vRS, depending on what you are looking for and willing to pay. There is a red one for sale on here if it floats your boat?

Skoda Superb coolant temperature
I would have said DSG stat again. But like you only changed mine once when the temperature needle went to 90 and back down again or indeed never reached 90

Does the car have stop start fitted, was thinking the car battery should have been updated into the computer with correct software/tool ?

Electrical Issue on one Side of Car
Do a search on here plenty of people written about it. You can repair just those wires and others. Buy a kit from eBay or have the whole loom replaced.

2006 Skoda Octavia 1.9 Ambiente tdi Mk2 for sale - price reduced
Sounds ideal if you want rid. If they are offering less than you are selling perhaps reducing your price a little might work. Sounds like time against you though. Such a shame looks like a nice workhorse for someone.

Pricing for a reluctant sale

Second DSG service
Filters don’t get changed at main dealers I believe. Find an Indi to do it.
