'06 Octavia 2.0 TFSi vRS estate **Skoda warranty**

Featured Replies

For VERY reluctant sale after only one marvellous year and 13k miles of ownership..

2006/06 vRS estate, black magic, all the good bits apart from Maxidot – dual climate, rear parking sensors, jumbo box, electric windows all round & cruise. 18†Zeniths with Vredestein Ultrac Sessantas all round with loads of tread left. I’ve retro-fitted xenon dipped beam and LED sidelights – technically not legal but look OEM and just went through MOT no prob.

78k miles with full service history (inc. cambelt @ 49408 miles in Feb ‘09). Last serviced 25th Jan 2011 @ 77130 miles at Garland’s in Aldershot. MOT ‘til Jan 19th 2012 and tax ‘til end of Jun 2011.

Bought from Allam’s in Epsom in January 2010 as an ‘approved used’ car with 12 month warranty, which I renewed before it expired so you’ll have a Skoda warranty and Skoda assistance until January 2012. Car was first reg 29/04/06 and I’m the third owner, with the previous owner – who owned it from Sept 06 until Jan last year - being a Briskodian who clearly looked after it, as have I.

Interior is mint, and exterior is very good. It’s not ‘showroom’, the odd stone chip and light scratch, but nothing that isn’t easily solvable with a bit of elbow grease, and certainly nothing that isn’t commensurate with age and mileage.

Selling due to needing a diesel and (hangs his head in shame) a people carrier. Gutted*.

I’m in Farnham, Surrey, and the car isn’t advertised anywhere else yet.

Price? How does £7650 sound?

*to be fair, tempered with joy at the arrival, hopefully, in a few months of daughter number 2.. :)

Thanks for looking! Jim

Forgot to add to above.. if anyone's got a PD140 VW Touran Sport they'd consider part/ex or swap, let me know.. :)

Trying to get some pics today before putting on Pistonheads.. Perhaps unusually (for here!), I'd welcome constructive comments on price if anyone has an opinion? Thanks, Jim :thumbup:

After being overwhelmed by responses (!), price drop to £7450..

Looks like a nice car- I am selling one similar as you may have noticed HERE. As you will see, I too have had precious little interest at a significantly lower price. For what it's worth, I am beginning to think it is more a case of waiting for the right buyer than an issue of price.

Cheers, yours looks nice also and good spec too.. When I checked a few weeks back, Parkers suggests mine (adjusted for options and mileage) should be £7200 and I figure a proper Skoda warranty has to be worth something doesn't it? :wonder:

Price seems in step with others on Pistonheads and the 'Trader and I'm in no massive rush and won't be giving it away, so I'll pop mine on Autotrader on one of their cheapish long 'web' deals in a day or so and see if I get any takers.. Good luck with yours also! :thumbup:

Now sold - will be missed. Have introduced the new owner to Briskoda, so look out for him! :thumbup:
