Viewed a really nice VRS tdi 07 plate estate round the corner from me, every option apart from satnav I think, got the price down to £5750 (black estate 90k)

But then I read the horror stories about the Pd170 (i guess i has that engine) injectors. (DPF issues I know about)

I could not see any mention of it being recalled, but only found out after driving it.

It was last serviced in Dec 2011 at farmers skoda, would they be able to tell me if the recall was done if I give them the reg?

It drove really nice and was a world away from my fabia, I wasnt specifically after a derv, but this has the right spec at the right condition/price, waiting for a petrol estate with toys will be never ending!

Am I being paranoid about the injectors?

It looks pretty good nick to me, It looks like it's been looked after, and the car has done enough miles to probrably have been used properly to burn the DPF properly? You can also check about recalls on cars on the aa website -http://www.theaa.com/allaboutcars/recalls/index.jsp?makeName=Skoda&makeId=E2

Give the dealer a call tomorrow and explain your buying or looking to buy this car, and you'd like to know more about the history of its service? Or you can actually ask the owner?

Called the dealer this morning where it was last services, they said the injectors had been done!

That looks nice.

That spec is mega rare

Is it a private seller?

If you dont go for it let me know. I'm very interested.

Looks like a good buy that like, good luck trying to keep it clean though lol

Looks a great buy at that money if everything checks out. As said, that spec level is pretty rare!
