Beti the 300+bhp Yeti 4x4

[amstrange1]

2010 Skoda Yeti 1.8TSI Elegance 4x4 by Shark Performance

• 323bhp sleeper family wagon
• 61,000 miles
• 2 owners
• FSH
• £9500

 

Beti is a highly-spec'd Yeti, lovingly modified by her first owner with Shark Performance (the first owner's build thread is here: https://www.briskoda.net/forums/topic/253927-beti-the-k04-yeti/).

 

I've finished off some of the previous owner's modifications (rear brakes, uprated front pads, clutch delay valve, new-style Skoda badges) and used her as my amusing daily-driver and main family transport. As the rear seats are removable individually, and can also slide forward, Beti's proved to be quite practical with two kids and all their clutter!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

There's a detailed specification list below, though I've probably missed something - so just ask!

 

Engine Spec/Modifications

• 1.8TSI engine fed on Shell Nitro Superunleaded (mapped on this fuel)
• K04-064 turbo conversion by Shark Performance
• Milltek 3" downpipe with sports catalyst
• Milltek mid-silencer
• Standard Yeti exhaust backboxes and tailpipes, so it looks and sounds standard!
• Audi S3 intercooler
• ITG/VW motorsport airfilter
• Audi R8 coil packs
• Remapped by Shark Performance
• 323bhp and 425Nm on Shark's rolling road:

 

Transmission Spec/Modifications

• Haldex 4x4 system
• Standard 6-speed manual
• Sachs organic-lined clutch friction plate
• Sachs uprated pressure plate (higher clamping pressure)
• Clutch kit retains the standard dual-mass flywheel, so no nasty rattling from a single-mass conversion!
• Clutch-delay/damper valve has been removed to improve pedal feel (still have it if you wanted to put it back in!)

 

Chassis Spec/Modifications

• Bilstein B6 dampers
• Eibach lowering springs
• Polybushes all round
• Has the metal sumpguard/skid plate as standard
• Standard 17" Spitzberg alloys and new Skoda logo centre caps (one with minor kerbing - see pics)

• Columbus Satnav with bluetooth handsfree, build-in HDD storage, DVD player, SD card reader etc.
• 12-speaker premium sound system

• Climate control

It's always difficult to price a modified car, but this isn't the most expensive 1.8TSI Elegance 4x4 for sale at the moment - nor is it the cheapest. I've priced it a good few grand cheaper than an equivalent age Golf R or Audi S3, and it's got more power than they have!

 

Additional bits

If you pay the asking price I'll throw the following in:

• Skoda roof cross-bars (for carrying a roofbox)
• Annapurna 17" wheels (black and silver variant) with tyres (two Michellin with okay tread, two Barum which are down to about 2.5mm from memory)
• Brand new set of Continental tyres to go on the above (the Annapurnas were the car's summer wheels, I was going to put winter rubber on the Spitzbergs - but haven't worn the tyres on them out yet!)
• Spare wheel kit
• Rubber interior mats
• Rubber boot mat
• Spare MAF & MAP sensors, piston-type diverter valve, PCV and N75 valve - all common TSI failures and replaced as preventative maintenance.

Where are you based? Cheers.

Dare I ask what the mpg is like... If you aren't overly aggressive with it lol.

[amstrange1]

Depends on how you drive it and what speed you're doing.

 

The previous owner claimed to have seen mid-40s to the gallon on long motorway runs in his build thread, but I have never had the patience to try - it's not a 140PS diesel after all! On my commute of 50-60mph roads, some 30 limits and about 4 miles of town driving I get 30-35mpg depending on how many people I overtake and how much time I spend stuck in traffic. In my last job I used to get about 26-28mpg as it was all clear 60mph B-roads, so you could press on a bit!

This is looking great! Can't think of a better family car than this. Loads of space, 4 wheel drive and 300bhp+. Superb!
