Potentially up for sale (if i can find a buyer) is my Fabia TDi PD100 Ambiente. Usual Ambiente spec - electric front windows, electric/heated mirrors, air-con, cd player, trip computer, remote central locking, front fogs etc. The pictures aren't the most up-to-date but I'll sort that out tomorrow as the weather is supposed to be good.

Purchased December '11 at approx 74k miles. Car has nearly complete service history, backed up by having timing belt, tensioner, water pump, coolant etc replaced when I purchased the car as I was unable to verify when last done. Also had a full service and vehicle check carried around about the same time. Recent oil service carried out by myself and listed below is work completed since I've owned it.

New wipers - 11/12/11

Cambelt change - 21/04/12

Coolant change - 21/04/12

Air filter - 23/01/12

Pollen filter - 23/01/12

Fuel filter - 23/01/12

Oil - 23/01/12(75583 miles) & 24/06/12(80436 miles)

Oil filter - 23/01/12(75583 miles) & 24/06/12(80436 miles)

Fixed all leaking doors (common fault)

I've also added some improvements:

Smoked side-repeaters

Lamin-x rear lights

Leather mk4 Golf steering wheel with vRS airbag

Wiring for amp/sub

Cupra R front splitter

Pd160 intake

De-badged rear

Plasti-dip front grille (de-chromed)

As with every second hand car, it's not perfect and does have the usual stonechips, scratches etc. It is far from tatty though and I would describe its condition as very good.

If i had to list negatives:

There is also a small burn mark on the rear seat bench but it is very small and doesn't detract from the overall appearance of the interior.

The air-con works but there is the usual 'hissing' noise from behind the dash. I think it's an issue with the fans. I regassed it and it still works so hasn't been an issue for me.

ASR light comes on after 10 mins driving. Common fault, caused by the faulty wire near to the gearbox. Simple fix but I've just not had time to sort it.

Other than that it is in good shape. Can honestly say that the only reason I'm selling as another car I'd really like has become available and the Fabia has to go for me to get it. If it wasn't for that I'd be keeping it as this is a great car, well spec'd, quiet, comfortable, spacious for its size and very cheap to own/run. I've been easily averaging 55+mpg per tank (not journey) and in the summer months was seeing just over 60mpg. I do drive like a granny though. I've had a look on piston heads and auto trader so have very keenly priced it at £2900.

PM me and I'll answer any other questions you may have.

P.s. Car does come with Skoda wheeltrims, I just preferred the look without them.
