  1. Still for sale, Price drop £600 Sent from my Nokia 3210 using Tapatalk
  2. For Sale - 2010 Specialized Pitch Pro Mountain Bike Large - which is 19inch I think This bike was rated one of the best you could buy for under £2000 and still is. Something with the same spec/travel would cost you £3000 upwards This is classed as a freeride bike, meaning it will take anything you throw at it. Capable of anything from XC riding to full on downhill I used it mainly for XC riding so it hasn't had a hard life and the condition will show that. For the past year it has been sat in the garage not being used A lot of these I have seen for sale look very tired and heavily used and they still ask for £900 upwards, But this is in brilliant condition and I am asking for less Looking for £750 Collection only - Winchester/Southampton area Upgrades I have made are Superstar seatpost and Superstar flat pedals, Hope Pro2 front hub, Ethirteen bash guard, Reverse bars Original Specification: Frame: Pitch frame, M4 tubing, double ORE downtube, DMD front derailleur mount, sealed cartridge bearing pivots, replaceable hanger, bolt on cable guides, 150mm travel Rear Shock: Fox RP2, 2-position switch 1) ProPedal 2) full open, rebound adjust, 7.875×2.25 inch Fork: Rockshox Pike 351 for Specialized, 140mm travel, Solo air, Motion Control damper, disc only, alloy steerer, rebound adjust, Maxle light included Front Derailleur: Shimano M660 SLX, DMD, top swing, dual pull Rear Derailleur: SRAM X-9, mid cage Shifters: SRAM X-5, 9-speed trigger Chainset: Truvativ GXP2 2.2, 2 piece crankset, AA rings, outboard bearing BB 175mm Chainrings: 36/24 tooth chainrings Bottom Bracket: Truvativ outboard bearing, included with crank Cassette: Shimano HG-50, 9-speed, 11-34 tooth range Chain: KMC X9 with reusable Missing Link Pedals: None Front Brake: Custom Avid Elixir 4, full hydraulic, alloy backed organic pads, G2 Clean Sweep rotor, 203mm Rear Brake: Custom Avid Elixir 4, full hydraulic, alloy backed organic pads, G2 Clean Sweep rotor, 185mm Brake Levers: Avid Elixir 4 Hydraulic Handlebars: Alloy mid rise, butted, 31.8mm, 680mm wide, 6 degree up, 9 degree back sweep Stem: 3D forged alloy, 8 degree rise, 31.8mm 4 bolt clamp, Headset: 1 1/8 inch threadless Grips: Specialized Thick lock on grip Rims: Pitch Disc specific, 26mm, pin joint, eyelets, 32hole Front Hub: Hi-Lo disc, 20mm thru-axle, 32 hole Rear Hub: Disc, double sealed cartridge bearing, high/low flange with OS contact side, 32hole, quick release Spokes: 1.8mm (15g) stainless Front Tyre: Specialized Eskar Control, 26×2.3 inch, 60 TPI, tubeless ready, aramid bead Rear Tyre: Specialized Eskar Control, 26×2.3 inch, 60 TPI, tubeless ready, aramid bead Tubes: Ultralight Presta valve Saddle: Specialized Enduro BG, 7mm hollow Cr-Mo rails Seatpost: 2 bolt micro adjust setback head, 6061 alloy, 30.9mm Seat Binder: Alloy collar with quick release, 34.9mm clamp ID
  3. THIS IS NOW SOLD!!! Fabia VRS Special Edition 2007(07) 1.9tdi, 130bhp Number 351 47588 miles (won't rise very much as I will be using my other car from now on) I have just given it 6 months TAX and a fresh MOT (no advisories) TAX - 31/08/14 MOT - 21/02/15 Includes all the manuals, receipts, paperwork etc. (stereo code included, in case you decide to change it, then change it back) 2 Keys Road tax is £125 for the year I get around 43mpg around town and 60+ mpg on the motorway - so very cheap to run Full service history 1st - 3915 (Skoda) 2nd - 7472 (Skoda) 3rd - 16215 (Independent garage) 4th - 25490 (ind garage) 5th - 35567 (ind garage) 6th - 42900 (ind garage) Invoices included for each service Next service is due at either 52900 or 12/06/14 As far I am aware the cam-belt/water pump has not been done yet. The car has two previous owners. The 1st owner, a lady who had it up to 11k miles The 2nd owner, my sister, who owned it up to 37k And then me who has had it for a trouble free 10k+ miles Most of you know about these cars, so here is a quick specification. Blue - the special editions came only in this colour (as far as I am aware) Full leather - with number 351 (only a thousand made, so a future classic) Leather in great condition Air con - nice and cold Cruise control Electric/Heated wing mirror glass Electric front windows, manual rear Factory CD player with 6 Disc changer The only modifications that have been made: Bump strips removed Cupra R splitter Silvervision bulbs for front indicators VRS chrome foot rest plate - compliments the chrome pedals Carbon vinyl wrapped Spoiler and front grill Everyone knows the common problem with these cars are leaky rear door carriers, the standard front inner bushes and the peeling lacquer on the spoiler. Well a year ago I had the rear door carriers re-sealed by Skoda, was a £300 job (receipt included) 6 months later when one of the doors started to show a slight dampness again on one side, so I went back and they replaced practically the whole inner door, both sides, seals and carriers. Despite the amount of rain we have had in the past few months, the car is dry as a bone The front bushes are known to be rubbish, so they were replaced with uprated Cupra ones The rear spoiler did start to peel, like many others. So I removed all the peeling parts and wrapped the spoiler with Carbon vinyl car wrap, I had some left so I decide to do the front grill also. Exterior condition is good considering it's a 7 year old car. There is a few stone chips and light scuff marks that will buff out. To be honest (and it's probably me just being picky) but the car over due a good polishing, which I have been meaning to do if it ever stops raining for 5 mins. The alloys are in great condition, think one has slight kerbing but nothing major at all. The rear tyres are couple of months old, the front ones will need replacing at some point this year Interior condition again is very good considering the age, it gets hoovered and dusted every week, everything works. Recently I replaced the wing mirror control button and the gear knob insert. The steering wheel badge has started peeling, again another common thing Like I mentioned before the leather is in good condition, since my ownership I have always had seat covers on it Mechanically the car runs like a dream, starts every time in any weather conditions, it has never let me down during ownership, nor my sister during the time she had it. This engine is fantastic as you know, solid and reliable. I am sure I have missed something, just PM me with any questions. As you can tell I have tried to be honest as possible with my car Oh and for those who have issues with low mileage cars, the majority of the mileage on this car were motorway miles as my sister works for Mercedes and travels a lot between dealerships (she upgraded to an Octavia Vrs) I am looking for £5500 which I think is a good price, considering what some people advertise these for. I am in no hurry to sell, so won't be letting it go for silly money. If I could afford to run two cars I would keep it but I think it may as well go to someone who would appreciate it and use it. Please PM with interest, you are more than welcome to view the car, I am home most evenings and weekends. No tyre kickers please, and If you would like to test drive, please have valid fully comp insurance otherwise I am more than happy to take you out in it Thanks Lee
