2003 Mk1 Octavia vRS Estate, 96k **NOW SOLD**

Featured Replies

Hi, I'm selling my Skoda Octavia vRS Mk1 estate. I bought it as a project car as I like the Mk 1 wagon shape and there was opportunity to tidy it up. However, we moved house last year and I gave up a driveway and garage and my enthusiasm has faded and I now want to move it on. Also, living in rural Yorkshire and the "poor" road quality here means I'm heading back to Subaru having previously owned a bullet proof Forester. I'll be keeping the Yeti though so not leaving Briskoda entirely and all the great help and advice it offers.

 

Here's the car details.

Both front brakes have just had a full service with new discs and pads (15-03-18). The invoice receipt is in the photo gallery.

Asking price has dropped to £1550 NOW SOLD.

This will go up as I'm still using it to commute to the station.

Body work:

Paint is cracked and chipped n/s rear bumper. I dinged it, hitting our other car while reversing it onto the drive.

Some other scratches and marks that are relevant with age of the car. Notably, a previous owner thought it was a good idea to move the vRS badge under the Skoda badge on the boot lid. WHY?! 

Also, I've removed the two orange LED lights from the front bumper intakes. Again, a previous owner had these wired up to the side repeaters. WHY?!

These are shown in the photo gallery.

Spares:

A centre handbrake console to replace existing one where the cup holder lever is missing.

Keys:

1

Manuals:

Original service and instruction manuals, plus radio key fob

 

Asking price is £1550 NOW SOLD.

I'm in Haworth, near Keighley and Skipton, West Yorkshire. If you have further questions and want to arrange a viewing and/or test drive get in touch. Obviously I'll accompany you on the test drive and relevant insurance will be required.

 

A couple of photos below, but I've created a Flickr gallery with lots more photos here
