51 plate MKI Octavia vRS - SOLD

[amateurstuntman]

So, I am putting my vRS up for sale.

Don't get me wrong, I love it but I am at the stage now where significant gains will cost a lot of money and I feel like something a bit more interesting/unusual

There is a build thread here:

http://briskoda.net/forums/topic/132228-octavia-i-vrs-going-for-a-stealth-look/

It stops just over a year ago because my mother-in-law (who I loved like my own mother) died just after my last post and I lost interest in everything.

In short the car has:

Engine

Compbrake recirculating valve

Jetex panel filter

3" De-cat down pipe (CEL mapped out)

Super sprint back box

Drivetrain

G60 Flywheel

Sachs clutch

Quaife automatic torque biasing differential

Handling

Weitech Hicon GT coilovers

TT wishbones

S3 upper and lower strut braces

R32 front anti-roll bar

Whiteline adjustable rear anti-roll bar

S3 steering rack (just like the R32, 2.5 turns lock to lock)

All round polybushes except the TT wishbones (which have TT bushes) and the steering rack (I have the bush I just haven't fitted it)

Interior

MFD Sat-nav/6CD changer

Parking sensors

B & M short shifter

Otherwise, standard

Exterior

MK4 Golf aero wipers fitted

Spoiler deleted

Rear wiper deleted, hole filled with glass circle

Wheels powder coated matte black

Radiator surround painted matte black

Debadged except for classic Skoda badges and vRS wheel centres

There might be other things but I forget.

Bad

Car is 9 years old and has lots of little dints and scuffs on it

Bonnet, boot lid, doors etc.

108,000 miles - not as bad as it might seem, this mileage is bang on average and it has had an oil service every 6 months while I have had it

Driver's seat bolster is a little tired

White bits of the seats have a few stains

Car was a Cat C write off, front left damage, all repaired before I got it.

Good

4 good Toyo T1-R tyres in 215/45/17

2 spare spider alloys (bit scuffed in silver with OK tyres) and 2 good unmounted T1-Rs in 205/50/17

All mods and servicing carried out by Mike from Impossible Performance

Plenty of meat left on the brakes

Toad Ai 606 alarm with dual zone microwave and glass break sensor, the car only came with one key but the Toad bypasses this and now there are 2 fully working key fobs

Although the engine has done 108,000 all the drive train stuff has been done in the last 10K

Kind of hard to prove, this one - I'm not a boy racer, I'm 33

This one taken before the B & M shifter was fitted

This car has been set up for the joy I get when I perfectly judge a corner and I think it handles very well, there are a couple of other forum users who have driven it, oet is one, he liked it.

This car is available in two ways:

1

Car comes as-is, all mods and whatever related spares I have included.

Will be serviced, timing belt (which is due next year) done, 1 year MOT, on the road mapped to approximately 230hp by Mike from Impossible Performance

£3000

2

Car will have the flywheel, clutch, and diff removed and replaced with stock items

Timing belt will not be done, it will be serviced and have a 12 month MOT though

It will be returned to a standard map (should be about 190 with the filter and de-cat)

£1500

Feel free to ask me any question, request particular pictures etc.

I will consider P/X for a small, cheap diesel like a 106 for the wife (money my way) or will consider an RS EVO 4,5 or 6 an AE86 corolla, MK2 Escort or similar, if you know these cars you will know if yours is similar (money your way)

Car is located in Rochester in North Kent

Mobile number is *edit* no longer here *edit*
