[Hewey]

Hi All,

Sorry for delay in getting more pictures up on here.

No it doesn't have a stutter. Drives 100%.

Only issues are slightly corroded Alloys and a cracked front drives side Fog light which I only just noticed when cleaning the other day, will order a replacement.

[Hewey]

Due to new car being picked up tomorrow I will hopefully be putting this on either Autotrader or Ebay over the weekend (time permitting)

It really is a great car would like it to go to someone that will appreciate it.

Have updated the first post adding a few more details.

Lovely car.

[Hewey]

Cheers g_tee.

Yep it is a good one, Went up to Stoke on Trent to view its replacement yesterday, now know the fuel computer is 3 or 4 mpg out but it did 66.5mpg which for a car with this performance is incredible, even if it was mainly motorway. Have seem 80.1mpg on one VERY careful 80 mile round trip to Lakeside. Actually took pictures of the Computer as couldn't believe my eyes!!!

Spoke to Ben at Shark performance quite a bit before he remapped it for me, asked him to be fairly reserved on the map as didn't want to put any excessive strain on the clutch. He did a marvelous job with it, it pulls very well, totally smooth.

Now on Ebay:

Right been offered £5450 by a dealer.

Would like to see £5600 if possible, also would prefer to sell it to someone that is a fellow enthusiast rather than a dealer that going to add more money onto it.

[vr6 south]

That's a good Dealer offer. Remove the STS and ARB, sell them on here and you have got your money

[Hewey]

Yeh I know but advertised with all bits.

If I could sell 312's, RARB and remove STS then would make a few quid.. lol

Does the dealer want the extras?? They don't usually pay any more for that kind of stuff.

[Taylor477]

Car looks fantastic! Good luck with the sale! That is also a very decent offer from the dealer..

If you do decide to sell off the parts I would be interested in the 312's and RARB

Hi mate I am very interested in this car . Just a quick couple of questions

Has this had its timing belt changed ? And if not when is it due?

Is the clutch showing any signs of slipping ?

Do the back doors suffer from leaking and if so have you sorted it out ?

Does the car have any factory fitted extras ?

I am seriously interested and could collect next weekend if it is what I want Cheers

[Hewey]

Hi Tez,

I made sure Timing Belt, Waterpump and Tensioners were done by Skoda dealer when I purchased it.

Clutch is fine no slipping at all, always driven sensibly since remap, spoke to a lot of tuners and read lots of feedback prior to getting the remap done, its a very smooth map not spikey like some. Think most will tell you that the Shark Performance map is one of the more clutch friendly ones, Ben there was great and I specifically asked him to be conservative on it so not to strain other components.

Back doors don't leak as far as I am aware, carpets all dry.

As for Extra's, don't think it has anything over and above the normal. I have fitted a Sony Bluetooth, MP3/USB Headunit which I am going to take out (If I can find the original since moving house!!!).

Thats a very very good price from a dealer, Book value is a hell of a lot less than that!

[Hewey]

Yep,

I thought that too, chap contacted me via the Ebay ad. I say he's a dealer as he's got about 10 cars for sale on there at present up to £13k.

Maybe he wants it for himself as cant imagine he would make a killing on it selling it on.

[johal87]

Quite possibly, or he's got a sale for the car already.. Remove the extras and at that price I would let him have it

[Hewey]

Yeh I will see.

Had quite a bit of interest on it since putting it on ebay on Thursday, would like to sell it as is to save me paying out to get the bits taken off, even though I know I would make on doing it.

[Hewey]

SOLD to TEZ-VRS.

Been a fantastic car to me hope he enjoys it, sure he will.
