Hi,

I recently purchased the above (July 2008 50k miles and immaculate), in a bit of haste as our beloved daughter had claimed our much loved Golf Estate GTi 130bhp as her A3 had died.  

Got home…dismayed to discover no cruise control, but hey I recalled having it fitted to the Golf = no probs and very cheap too.   But neither the local (S Hants) Skoda main dealer, nor the VW one, have been at all helpful or encouraging despite me showing them the part and fitting instructions on line!  In fact they muttered and scoffed at the very suggestion……. 

After searching on line discovered a VW specialist right up in the NE thats will sell and fit it,  and then another VW and Audi Specialist in St Albans that offer to supply and fit for £150+Vat . They are called Hazzydaze.  Has anyone had any experience of either having cruise retrofitted to their Octavia 2?  Using this company in St Albans?

Be grateful for any experience.

Thanks.

 

PS Please don't suggest I fit it myself - I used to DIY on my Morris Traveller and my Bedford CF - but past it now! Thanks.

 

I'm sure I responded to this!

Have you started two threads?

If so, see my response to the other one. If not, I'll try to remember what I wrote.
