2003 Octavia vRS Full Service History, for sale/swap for red or black vRS hatch

Featured Replies

I would prefer to swap this for either a black or red Octavia vRS hatchback as that is what I will be buying next anyway.

2003 03 plate Octavia vRS in silver

100k

Full service history

Mot til May

Tax til April

Black leather with white cloth centre interior with no rips

All standard apart from FK coilovers

I put a new maf on 3 weeks ago as the old one started to fail.

Wednesday car had new thermostat, yesterday had new coolant temp sensor and new Y breather pipe that connects to tip, cam cover and crank case.

Drives lovely and performs very well.

Bad points:

Needs a little bit of paintwork; passenger side wing, mirror cap, door handle and corner of rear bumper. There is also a small scab of rust on the tailgate under the glass as can be seen in pics. It doesn't bother me how it is, it's not that bad really.

Only selling/swapping as I want either a red or black vRS hatch.

£1700 Ono

Car is in Lincoln,

My number is 07557361223 text any time or call after 18:00 (SERIOUS PEOPLE ONLY PLEASE, HAD TOO MANY TIMEWASTERS IN THE PAST!)

Please excuse the pics as the car is filthy

Has cambelt been done recently. What sort of offers would you be open to? What on earth is that on the wing mirror? Would you be willing to get a years mot stuck on?

  • Author

The cambelt was done at around 59k from memory. The service book is in the glovebox so I will confirm it when I head out later bud. Wing mirror is just missing a bit of paint where it's caught something (something red/brown at a guess).

I don't see that point in sticking it through a test yet, as its not due til May, although for the right offer I would do. What would you offer?

so its due a belt change

  • Author

Due a belt change at around 117956 miles. It's now on 101k

Going in eBay tonight will update with eBay link when listed

The cambelt is every 4000 miles on one of these ... Glws

Must cost a fortune lol ;)

Lol error 40000 miles half asleep posting :)

I've always been lead to believe 60k, even the specialists I've used say 60k. Not had an issue so far going by that.

I originally thought the same but much reading etc its 40k that was one of my haggling points when I brought my vRS a few months back and the guy also checked it on auto data and it was 40k so i then got a cambelt and service free :)

  • Author

Oh right, fair enough. I'll still go by 60k as all my other 1.8t's have been fine as have other friends who also have Octavis vRS's.

Is now on eBay: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/170970494800?ssPageName=STRK:MESELX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1558.l2649

Should have also said the car comes with 2 keys, and the following information:

There is also a Skoda detachable tow bar with the car

Drives lovely and performs very well.

The car has had 5 previous owners, I am the 6th owner.

The cambelt was done on 21.10.08 at 57956 miles, car is now on 101k so belt not due for another 15-16k.

3 coilpacks were replaced by Skoda 2 weeks ago under the recall.

Tyres have plenty of tread as far as I can see.

Wheels have kerb marks on the faces, these were like this when I got the car.

Exhaust is in good condition, no blowing at all just needs the tailpipe cleaning up and polishing (which I will be more than happy to do for a buyer).

Interior is in good condition, no rips in the leather. Could do with a shampooing if I'm honest as having a white carpet and seats it shows any bit of dirt.

I do not have any receipt for purchase of coilovers as they came with the car in their box. I do however have an installation invoice as I also had 2 new drop links and 4 wheel laser alignment done at the same time.

Just as a point of interest all service hsitory up to 62928 miles was Skoda dealer. On 19.11.09 at 71489 the service book says it had a service, new gearbox and clutch.

My VRS first cambelt change was at 109,000, as it states that in the manual for 1.8T. :)

Cambelts are every 4 years so whatever way its due :)

To be honest, I just want it gone. The vRS I want will sell pretty quickly so a quick sale is needed.

My vrs will be up for sale in the next month or so if your other car falls through. Pm if interested.
